Roomba Match
I heard a bridge was having balancing issues and the culprit was a Roomba stuck under it and it became dislodged during the match. Can someone post a link to the match video?

Interestingly enough, had the roomba remained under the bridge it wouldn't have had any effect on the match. |

Re: Roomba Match
Yea, the roomba was under Daisy's bridge, IIRC even if the other team double balanced 254/341/78 would have still won the match without needing a robot on the bridge. Also interesting was that in the replay match the score was much much closer and Daisy et al had to balance to win.

Re: Roomba Match
Aww, the roomba wanted to make friends with the big robots so it stowed away! Silly roomba, FIRST is for kids (and mentors)
My question is how they didn't notice that the roomba was missing, and why under the bridge wasn't the first place they looked. |

Re: Roomba Match
I think we would have successfully completed the triple balance even with the Roomba under the bridge (the three-robot train had already started on their way up), but I understand why the match was stopped.

Re: Roomba Match
They put out 1-3 of them at any given time, when you're doing pickup it may not have been the same person who picked them all up. I can see how this would have been overlooked and since it didn't affect the eventual outcome it was more of a "chuckle about this" occurance.

Re: Roomba Match
Jared, I'm fairly sure the Triple would've went just as well as if the roomba hadn't been there. The only time I saw an issue with the bridge was when 78 went to climb onto it. It clearly stopped going down at 2-3" from the floor, but 78 still managed to get onto it - but it wasn't as pretty as it should've been.

Re: Roomba Match
They stopped the match because of a Roomba. It was just water under the bridge.

Re: Roomba Match
It could've been one of the younger Roombas ... didn't know any better, or was missing its mentor. Just wanted to go play hide-and-go-seek. Found a good spot for sure.

Re: Roomba Match
Match 17 on Newton was played with a flag on the field.
