Got it. Just making sure it wasn't a color bit depth problem or something All to familiar with those from the horrid days of Windows Mobile.

Actually 254 has a pretty defined branding document and page 13 has the specific color palettes and their uses.

Don't ask me how I know this info...

Re: Team 254 Presents: Overkill

Well, amazing. I am glad that team 751 did some things right. Our shooter looks less refined, but functionally the same. Also, I think, for a ten point hangar, ours is simpler and faster even

Re: Team 254 Presents: Overkill

Does anybody know about 254's performance at San Diego today? It appears that they went 1-4 and are ranked 44/59. Just wondering if they got unlucky with alliance pairings or were they have issues communicating with the field?

Edit: I see on their twitter feed:

It looked like they were having trouble with their intake early on, some of their shots were too high, then too low, and they have quite a bit of defense on them as well. Haven't seen a climb yet, only 10 point hangs.

Re: Team 254 Presents: Overkill

We had some reliability issues earlier today, especially on the shooter. After a lot of hard work, we've ironed out a lot of the rough edges and are looking good as of our last match of the day.

The 30 pointer will be on at SVR. We wanted to focus on getting everything else at 100% before we worried about it.
