Then the second match 3882's camera broke "our shooter was not connected at end of the QF" and they couldn't aim and near the end all 3 of our robots froze for a few seconds and 3647's hook got caught behind thr hanging bar.

Ya tell me about it... our shooter hex shaft broke in QF we were very lucky the Top Hats THANK YOU !!!!! happened to have the exact size laying around. and we had about an hour between our QF and SF since we were first up as alliance 8. I cannot believe we fixed it in time. It was amazing and tons of work to drill tap and attach.

We are going to a Steel Hex shaft in CV.

Also our camera was bent too "went unnoticed" in massive repair commotion so we were driving blind in SF and then our shooter jammed the ball in SF.... I think 3255 lost their drive train in QF too and another bot on their alliance in QF had issues too. It happens.

Basically in this game expect to be broken, and bring every spare part possible. We let our alliance down due to that our shooter was jamming in SF, we are doing everything possible not to have that issue next week in central valley. We'll need to be flawless to beat that amazing world-class field. But we have practice
