Hope to see you guys there.

Obviously you didn't know our robot in 2011 or 2012. Not much idolization going on there.

Interesting wording. The alliances and elims were exciting.

So glad to see a thread about you guys! Love the video, every aspect of your robot was effective, and led to the power house team you became at the World Championships. Way to represent Canada, and hopefully we get to watch you guys again at IRI!

Match 72:

If you want to see more matches go to 2056public channel on youtube.
curie qualification match numbers : 13, 21, 35, 51, 72, 89, 109,123

7 discs in auton = 42 pts
32 discs in teleop = 96 pts
1st level climb = 10 pts

Did you guys single-handedly score 148 points in this match?

Insane...

We actually missed our 10pt hang this match. When we were already hanging, one of our other alliance members jumped on top of our bumper, resulting in us touching the ground. It was still a great match nevertheless. My favourite part was when our human player came screaming over to the driver station saying "We are out of Frisbees!!!". Then I remember our field captain, our driver and myself saying in unison "Already what??!!?!!!?!". It was the highlight of the season after qualifying for Champs(which was definitely our greatest achievement).
It was great to see 610, 1241 and 1477 win it all. Two very deserving Canadian team that I've learned lots about over the years and Texas torque with their crazy 7disc autonomous.
Also pretty cool to see you guys in the front section of the globe and Mail this morning. And see you guys at Robojam!!!

Thank you. We never expected to be so successful at champs to be honest. Your team's strategy made you a force to be reckoned with and a real threat to play against. Awesome job on curie!!! You guys represented Canada well as well.

Some of the power teams did get separated but that did no eliminate their chances at all, if 1310 had made it to Einstein I would not have been surprised to see them win it all, they honestly had the best alliance in Curie but somehow got stopped by 2056, I still haven't figured out how. Also Curie was not out of the running for championship trophy just because some of the power teams weren't paired together, Curie had the highest score on Einstein at 233 points.

Curie selections turned out just how they should have (in regards to the scorching, good picks!), but the fact was it did weaken the division (which was the point).

It's so cool to see a local team do so well. Congrats.

I think I was a bit misunderstood. The results of the #1 alliance speak for themselves. I wasn't trying to diminish the strength of any of the alliances, but I believed that if 1310 had gotten to play on one of the top 3 alliances, they could have progressed much farther in the ladder.

Instead of a top 3 pick, they ended up making a much later pick.

Agreed. 1310 picked up the best pure cycler in the division in 3824.

2056 + 1310 would have been a nightmare to play against, they would have had an unbelievable alliance if we had let them make that pick. I agree that some of the Curie alliances would have been stronger, however they were by no means non-competitive compared to the other divisions.

3824 was not the best pure cycler in the division, they were however very high on the list and the fact that 1310 got both 3824 and 1684 was astounding, those robots should have both gone as first picks much earlier on.

In your scouting data who was the best cycler?

Not including FCS's the robot that picked up the most frisbees per match from the feeder station only was 359. 3824 was the second best at only getting frisbees from the feeder station, however this is partially due to the fact that they never did ground pick up. Both 1717 and 1310 picked up and shot more frisbees per match than 3824 did however they occasionally did ground pick up which reduced their feeder station pick up count. 3824 had a killer robot and was the best pure cycler available for 1310 to pick, however they were not the best pure cycler in Curie. I'm still incredibly surprised that they didn't go as an earlier pick since they were so good.

I agree with you that 359 was the best at getting frisbee from the feeder station. But 3824 had the highest shooting percentage and usually had 6 cycles per match. 359 was only getting 4-5. 3824 also had a 5 disc auto.
