I believe these are all of the teams who have already been out and about in MAR with RC grabbers. I'm not sure how many have demonstrated the ability in autonomous mode but I think that is going to be one of the keys for stacker scouts at MAR. We've seen good attempts through 7 events at MAR but there hasn't been a single team who's stood out as the most consistent during auto. Unless you have a practice bot at home, it will be tough to cheesecake a RC grabber against practiced grabbers already in the field.

The other point to note for scouts will be what the RC grabber's role is after auto. Can they go back to the step and claim left over RCs quickly in teleop? Should they landfill or feeder station stack?

Can't forget 1391 pretty sure the only team in MAR that can grab all 4 at once in auto. 25 can also grab from the step (in teleop).

Sorry, I should have mentioned that these are the teams currently registered for MAR champs. Unfortunately it doesn't look like 1391 will make it there this year.

Thanks for the 1391 shout out. Our 4 can grabber is and has been consistent. Unfortunately, the other end of the machine was finicky. Last matches at North Brunswick, though, we sorted it out, and can do at least 5 totes with trashcan, twice. fortunately, we made it to Worlds on waitlist, so hopefully we'll see 303 there, and all the other great MAR teams!

Congrats to the champions and award winners, as well as all of the teams who have qualified for World Champs. I know that 1676 is honored to be representing MAR again in St. Louis next week.

We have uploaded our HD full-field footage of every qualification and elimination match, opening ceremonies, and alliance selections to this playlist (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPUJJPXRAlERH8I7EPtJBmX6HLqZrdv2D) on our YouTube Channel, and have submitted them to The Blue Alliance as well. The only video that is currently missing from the playlist is the Award Ceremonies, which will hopefully be posted either today or tomorrow. Enjoy!

Team 272 Lansdale Catholic Robotics would very much like to attend St. Louis. We are meeting tonight to hash it all out.

Congratulations and thanks to all teams for an exciting event. We had a great time.
