Many thanks to Starke for posting that link. I was paying attention to a problem with our robot and didn't see the incident that led to the double red card. There is some justice that the match was replayed and the finalists weren't determined by a red card call.

Thank you to 1403 and 340 for forming a very powerful alliance. I'm still impressed that we got past 365, 2199 & 2377 in a very high scoring 194 quarterfinal match. They were my pick for the winning alliance going in to the eliminations. Congratulations to the alliance of 768, 1218 & 1699 for proving me wrong and going all the way.

Congratulations to 866 for winning Chairman's. I had the pleasure of talking with some of their presenters in the Robobees pit and was extremely impressed.

Also a shout out to 2789 TechXsplosion for making their scouting database public. I found it a very valuable resource and it was a helpful complement to our own scouting team.

Chesapeake is a very friendly regional with lots of great teams. Thanks to all the teams and volunteers for making it such a successful event.

Finally we posted a video on YouTube from a camera mounted at the base of our arm giving an interesting view of LogoMotion http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyjtAkdZEt4 (IIRC this was from match 57)
