This is a huge reason I love FIRST. I'm curious -- did you use the 11/245/2187 time out? In theory, they're not allowed to do that (rule T19), although it'd be hard to find a robot in a finals that doesn't need repair.
Which brings up an interesting question -- does the end justify the means? Is it OK to lie about (or exaggerate) a problem on your own bot so that you can illegally (but graciously) give the other alliance time to fix theirs?
This thread is making me all vaklempt. :) This is FIRST at its best! Advice, offers for spare parts, and even lunch! You all ROCK! :D - Cynette [more]
