I've watched this for the last two days and have been trying to find a way to write what Al did.

Lets look to fix the control system problems. Remind roboteers and mentors that a 125LB robot moving at 9FPS slamming into another robot creates a lot of force so connectors, cables and COTS electronics may be damaged. Put as much design effort into our electrics and electronics as we do for our mechanics. Remind designers that CPU cycles and network capacity is not infinite, less is always more. Make every CPU cycle and network message count.

Lets pull together as a community on these topics. All teams now and in the future will benefit from the shared knowledge of how to do these things.

But as Al and IndySam said:

Add me to that list too. Nobody benefits from retribution.
