That makes their decision making sort of interesting since they can't both dump 4 colored discs. I figure one robot takes four colored discs and the other one takes two colored + two white and shoots two before climbing + dumping. But there are several other ways of looking at that type of situation.

If I remember correctly, at the Michigan State Championship, the #4 alliance had 2 climber/dumpers plus the alliance captain could score the pyramid discs from the ground.

I don't remember how things were split up, but you can watch their matches here:

We'll probably figure that problem out about 8:30am Saturday morning....

The team is travelling without me today, so I'm sitting around thinking about them and wishing them well... and I can't stand it.

So... I thought I'd give a heads-up to the Curie scouts on CD. After an unsatisfying regular season, we put in a lot of hard work over the last couple of weeks to improve. As a result, we have three subsystems (2 replacement, 1 new) to put on our robot tonight. We should be a different looking animal come Thursday morning.

I don't want to set any unrealistic expectations, so that's all I'm going to say. I just wanted to remind y'all to keep an eye out for the Bomb Squad.
