Has 971 hit a 2 ball yet? I saw that 1678 missed close attempts.

Not that I have seen.

In one match they just missed the first shot and made the second one.

Does there happen to be video of this floating around somewhere? Or, if YouTube stored today's footage, can someone point me to roughly when in that archive this would be?

It was in practice match 5. You should be able to rewind the stream when it ends tonight.

The same links above should take you to the recorded footage after processing. Unfortunately, YouTube take a while to process the high bitrate stream, so it might be up to 48 hours after the conclusion of the stream before it appears online. We can't do anything to speed that up.

While the videos are processing, YouTube tends to just show a "live event over" message, which is a bit misleading.

Looks like there is a decent chance that three teams will go undefeated in the qualification matches (254, 971, 1678). The playoffs for this event are going to be fun to watch.

Hi Boltman,

I definitely agree. I've only watched a couple events from California (watched you guys at the Central Valley Regional!) but I've only ever seen those two teams together! Though I've never seen these two lose together, unless I missed that event. I guess that would be like getting mad about Montana connecting with Rice!

If I were one of them though I'd also have to look at this other undefeated team, it's be a pretty bad idea to not look at a team that can win matches! Because I was curious I looked up this 971 team online and found that they have won with 254 more than 1678 has (5 times to 3)! Now it definitely seems like we are missing something here. Looks like 971 is the Jerry Rice in our story.

Personally, if it was between all these past teammates I'd go and check out each robot in person to see how well fastened together it is before making any real decisions. Don't want the robot to come apart!

I'll be trying to watch the Silicon Valley Regional when I can on thebluealliance but no promises!

Best Regards,
RM

1662 is sporting an enormous slice of ... luscious cheesecake? *

Anyway, 971's shot goes over top of the thing. Defense is hard to do.

*or, did they bring that giant folding panel along just in case? Nah.

What is up with the challenge in F1?

... oh nevermind, 2 scales were given to red alliance for blue interference and thus the capture along with it.

No capture. Just one challenge converted to a scale. +10 on the originally reported Red score.
