Re: Curie 2012!
If anyone has videos from the Curie elims, it would be great if you could throw them up on Youtube. These were some of the best matches this year.
233, 987, 207: All I can say is WOW. Your alliance was absolutely fantastic. 233, you managed to turn it up as you always do for elims. The robot was on fire by finals. 987, you had another amazing machine. I was very impressed by your ability to pick a random spot on the field and drain all of your shots with such speed. 207, I think you have proven a high quality machine with great drivers can make the difference when it comes to elims. Congratulations on winning Curie. 341 and 78: It was great being able to work with you in elims. We were hoping for a 341/254/78 alliance, so to see that actually happen was really cool. We had our share of setbacks, but that's the way these things always go. Miss Daisy, you should hold your heads high. 5 medals in a year is quite the accomplishment. Air Strike, it was cool to work with guys. Your auto was clutch and you played the backcourt extremely well. |

Re: Curie 2012!
So disappointing that there wasnt that many co-op in curie. And it seemed like every alliance went for the shooting and not the triple.

Re: Curie 2012!
I could tell coming in to Championship that this division would be the one to watch (just look at some of my recent comments), and I wasn't disappointed by a long shot.
Congratulations to all of the teams that made it here in the first place, and to those of you who made it into eliminations! However, there are a couple teams I'd like to put a spotlight on just for a moment, as they performed exceptionally throughout the season and Championships with little recognition. I have watched these teams from afar this season, ever impressed by their constantly improving robots. Thie first is team 1477, Texas Torque. They ranked deceptively low, losing 4 matches by slim margins, the largest deficit being 6 points. They were also a member of the alliance that first put up a win against 987, alongside teams 120 and 244. They carried the scoring burden of their elimination alliance by themselves with their incredible key shooting that accurately released all of their basketballs in seconds, then quickly gathering the balls fed to them by their partners 1741 and 3528. The other is team 624, just a short drive away from team 1477, their alliance partners twice this season. Like 1477, 624 ranked low and was the single scoring robot for their elimination alliance, putting up huge numbers in hybrid and teleoperated modes. They also fought hard to make their way to the semifinals, being eliminated by a powerhouse alliance that put up a record 128 points. I was incredibly impressed by all of the robots that showed up to play on the Curie field this year, and I hope to see a bunch of them at IRI and in coming seasons! |

Re: Curie 2012!
The props to our team means a lot coming from such well known names!. We're extremely glad that we were able to contribute what we could to the incredible scoring machines of 233 and the High Rollers, and moreso glad that we were able to go as far as we did, the farthest our team has ever gone. It was an honor to be on the field with such well known teams, and I can't wait to see as many of you again as possible during the upcoming season.

Re: Curie 2012!
Congrats to 233, 987, and 207 on their stellar play! Elimination matches on Curie were some of the most exciting I have experienced in my 11 years in FRC.
A big thanks to 341 and 254 for picking us. Everyone in the stands were going crazy when it was announced! I really had a feeling we were going to go far...especially when watching the triple balance practice in the pits before elims started. I'm sure the drive team will have more good things to say...it's not every day you get the chance to play with two HOF teams. Simply amazing. |

![]() That was our first time (other than being invited as a rookie team 5 years ago) at the championships. ... we were hoping to make a good "first impression" with a lot of the teams so we'd be more recognizable if we have another good season next year. Thanks for clearing that up in case others interpreted it the same way. |

I kind of feel bad for 624 Cryptonite after watching that match. 624 scored all the tele-op points for the blue alliance. |

Re: Curie 2012!
We will slowly be uploading videos from curie qualification matches on our youtube channel we are starting with our matches because I want to watch those but we should get the vast majority of the qualification matches up soon enough.

If you watch the collision between 1885 & 254 at 0:26, you may notice that the Poofs' "fingers" on their collection mechanism jam into our electronics board. At that point the jags started throwing errors down the CAN bus, meaning that we still had comms but very sporadic response from the robot. It should have been a [G27], potential yellow card if the ref caught it and we could have explained the extent and result of the damage, but the ref didn't see it and wouldn't assign the penalty after the fact.We figured there were 2 ways to slow down the poofs, but only got to try one of them (and it obviously didn't work ) |
