Thanks to everyone

My name has been mentioned in this forum a few teams and I would like to get some things straight.

This team's miracles started about 8 weeks ago when MOE began to be thought up and built. We were able to think of almost everything in the creation of GeroniMOE and how to do what we wanted to. It's a really great bot, and The driver can only do what the bot can do, and the Miracle Workerz put together an awesome bot...

At the competition, our scouts had so much information on teams, strategizing was effortless.(That doesn't mean our plans worked every time). After the practice rounds, the Pit Crew did an amazing job fixing what I broke and improving features that didn't work. Also, the pit crew was amazingly fast at the competition fixing the robot between matches, Even though I was yelling(Whispering) that we were on our 4th call to be in the que. (We have a bunch of parts that have to be replaced/fixed between every match). Major props go out to the pit crew...

Thanks go out to Cocoa, Emily, and Jake. Cocoa drives arms, wings, and all of our other cool features except for the chasis. Cocoa is great and very easy to communicate with. Emily is the best human player around. Our robot never was disabled, nor got a single red flag throughout the entire competition. Also, Thanks Jake for the frantic strategizing advice when our robot can no longer stack since I ran into a wall. You helped to calm me down during matches...

Thank you to Joe, John, Jake, and Lou for helping me to keep a level head between matches. It helped a lot to hear that it's okay to lose...

Most of all, I would like to thank my entire team for their team spirit and attitude. To tell you the truth, I was really disappointed with myself for having flipped the bot (losing us the match). I walked around to the que area with my head down. When I got there, I saw a sea of green, making an arch for the competition team to go under. There was nothing but great spirits after a disappointing match. This is my first year on the team, and I almost shed a few tears when I saw the attitude of my teammates. Thanks guys, it means a lot to me.

Last, but not least, I would like to thank teams 314 and 858 for being great alliance partners. We all worked great together, and I fell we had the most laid back alliance. I hope to repeat the MO(E) alliance some day. That was really cool. Thanks everyone.
