Venturing further down the limb, considering the robot and tools were recovered after a "tip," it certainly seems that way to me.

Re: 5338 Robolocos Stolen Robot Recovered
I was thinking that too. Our practice bot this year has been on and off in better shape than our regular robot due to lack of wear and tear.

Their lift carriage was completed and waiting for the rest of the robot. Their top bar, with 2 constant-force springs was almost ready. Their crate was being painted as I left. They also met on Sunday, but I wasn't able to make it out. They had a hard deadline to ship by today (Tuesday) just like the DCMP teams do.

They had a guy from the community stop by to give them some pizza from Domino's. The Washington Redskins gave them a 'care package', which is cool on the surface. There has been plenty of support by the Loudon County execs from various entities. I think if a few teams stop by to help with any unexpected things that pop up, they'll do great things at Champs.
