Go to Post When it comes to FIRST (you've all heard the cliche) -- we're all winners. When it comes to the competition: to the engineering design challenge, we're NOT all winners -- some solutions are better than others. - JVN [more]

Hahah... Ok I'm startin to get over that %%%% drill motor clip... But it still hangs over my head

Anyway, over all my "pissed-offness" (ok made up word ) I totally forgot to congratulate the other teams.

Congratulations to:
  • 173- Excellent robot guys. We saw you as one of the best out there since the very first day of practice. You guys deserved to win, and if I may say so, almost did it all on your own
  • 311- East Islip/West Islip, well we definitely have a long history without FIRST, and now we are "enemies" on the robotic playing field. After attending the competition for the past few years, EI has definitely grown dramatically. We worked this year with the first engineer you guys had from AIL - Chris Foley, who's son is a senior at WI. Anyway, hopefully the two Islips will continue in years to come as both competitors and alliances. Hope you guys remember our tug of war over the goal and recognize us as a strong (literally) rookie team. Congratulations on your Chairmans award, and you guys definitely had one of the best bots out there (we actually had that same exact idea for a bot but decided against it as rookies without a full machine shop or engineering sponsor ) I think everyone (at least we did), viewed you guys as the "Arch-enemy" to destroy and had fun competing with ya. Oh yea.. and thanks for allowing everyone to cheer at the smoke, heh.. I dont know, you must have some serious design flaw for that to keep happening. Oh, and thanks for letting us use your ban saw a few times
  • 358- Excellent defender! Although we voted for you for play of the day, it wasnt for your "mousetrap." It was for our first match back after being disabled when you guys kept 224 in check- robot in our zone, but goal with balls into their zone for a score of 36-34, that was awesome!
  • 467- Well you guys won too.. I dont think we really had too much interaction with you guys, except that we had the same colored shirts and I kept confusing your team members with ours at a quick glance
  • 810- Highest rookie seed, good job!! I think it was definitely a battle between the two of us for that spot And from what I saw, you guys and traction and speed, but not as much torque and power, so we held our ground against you guys in our one match, heh. Good job and congrats on doing well
  • 870- Well you guys did so much fundraising and got so many sponsors, and we share the Rookie All Star with you guys for two different aspects of the competition. We had a lot of fun with you guys right next to us in the pits, I'm sure you guys appreciated all our help Although we were kinda angry you got picked over us in the elim rounds, we got over it, and know next year to have our team on the sidelines cheering for us Good luck next year and be seeing you in the pits again.


Again, congratulations to all on a job well done. Now I just hope I go to a college next year that participates in FIRST and comes down to the LI regional
