Great to hear. You have a fantastic bot, and is 100% IRI worthy.

Thanks for the feedback. Our team is really hoping that the season isn't over yet. We want to see our robot in action once more. We're crossing our fingers that we get the invitation.

Just make sure to pack extra hockey pucks. I'm not sure if anyone in Indiana has any. I hope 1310 makes it into IRI this year you guys were great to work with at champs.

Yes, if we are accepted we'll make sure we pack extra hockey pucks and lots of turtle wax.

That was incredible. It's a real shame that the curie alliances got so broken up and eliminated your chances.

Wow. I've heard your name thrown around this whole year, but you were always "one of the other good Canadian teams" after 1114 and 2056 were mentioned. But you guys could hit good full court shots, then sweep the ground afterward- and you could do both very effectively!
Hope to see you guys at IRI! Potentially with the same color bumpers!
(Hopefully in person and not on a webcast! )

We are hoping we are accepted to IRI. It would be awesome to cap off the year with a trip there. Seeing and competing with teams like yours that we have idolized for years would be incredible.

Hope to see you guys there.

You guys had an incredibly versatile robot, really well done, I was very impressed, the only thing that your robot could have done better was a 30 point climb but you really didn't need it with everything else you could do.

Thank you very much for the feedback. We actually never really considered the climb because we figure we could do a cycle plus pick up a couple off the floor in that time. We just didn't see any real benefits with the climb. We could either have built a 30pt climb or a floor pick-up, and we obviously choose the floor pick-up. We knew we didn't have the weight for both and we felt the risk of falling was too high.
You guys had a great bot too, it was a pleasure competing with you guys on curie.
