Re: 1678 Two Ball Auto

So either they don't have cloth hanging from their low bar, which I think could affect their timing and accuracy, or they're shooting with the low bar cloth hanging on their robot for the second shot. Which seems unlikely.

It's an impressive achievement, but there have been a lot of impressive auto videos that have mostly or completely failed on field.

Let's agree to disagree here.
Working with 1678 this summer is enough to convince me that they don't need Pixie Dust to make magic happen. The use of Pixie Dust remains firmly realm of 2073.

Re: 1678 Two Ball Auto

I'm glad 1678 proved it could be done. Now our programmers have no excuses!

Impressive, as would be expected from a reigning World Champion. Good luck 1678!

Re: 1678 Two Ball Auto

I was waiting for the first signs of this auton this season...

Congrats to 1678 for winning the completely arbitrary race for the 2 ball autonomous cookie for Stronghold!

After the past several seasons, you were definitely on the short list of teams I would have put money on for winning it. Best of luck this season, guys!

Cool auto mode, super impressive! I always look forward to seeing what 1678 cooks up. Can't wait to play with/against you at CVR!

Wait, there was a cookie on the line?

We would have totally posted earlier if we had known

And thanks, our kids have worked crazy hard this season, I'm one of many proud mentors!

Re: 1678 Two Ball Auto

Awesome 1678 can't wait to see it . I had that same move laid out week 1 of build season sadly I doubt we'll get it down. We need to get the HG down first

So excited to see all the word class teams at CV

Guys, you should know by now that it's best to operate under the assumption that a cookie is always on the line.

You've got a lot to be proud of, and justifiably so. Hope to finally get the chance to share the field with you guys in St. Louis this year.

^This. Not to take anything away from 1678's autonomous, but doing it on the practice field is a lot different on an actual field (I think they would agree with this). It was only two years ago they posted a very similar video of their 3 ball auto and never attempted it at their first two regionals, citing consistency issues.

All that being said, it is still the most consistent 2 ball auto I've seen this year

It was either the bench grinder, a troll face, or our team logo. One was professional, one was decidedly in poor taste, one was a hilarious play on one of this year's memes. We were never going to reveal the robot itself until CVR, that has been our decision since before kickoff.

I was noting some weird/strange about the video that no one else had commented on, and also that team defenses, fields, and balls are not equivalent to said items at the event. But your flawless logic has convinced me: there is no way this ever fails in competition.
