While I'm at it, I'll ask you a question - what did team 1086 do to help 2481-330-120 with the Einstein victory? I'd like to know since I wasn't involved in the strategical discussions, and from an outsider's perspective, team 1086 only played one match and lost.

I suggest we ban anonymous accounts on a forum where PROFESSIONALS and STUDENTS communicate. If that takes explaining, PM me.

As for what 1086 did for the alliance:
1. We were involved in all strategic conversations. Our scouts were feeding us info on the other teams throughout the event.

2. We were a darn good pit crew. We assisted keeping 120 on the field. We scavenged from our stores to replace parts (they still have out versa transmisson and 775pro motor on their robot as far as I know). When 330's climber broke, it was our students who helped fix it and get them back in on the field. When 120 broke their chain for their intake, I personally, went to every team down on the field looking for a master link. We found it on the other side of the arena (sorry I forgot which team I got it from, but thanks!)

3. When 120 couldn't take the field, we stepped in. It was MY bad call that put the team in a bad situation that they weren't ready for. Take a look at any match we ran before then. We NEVER missed that many shots before. I made them do something they weren't prepared to do. It would have been VERY different if I had to do it over again. Take a look at IRI match 88. This is what we should have done with the other bots on the field. (that's not even our best shooting match btw. That happened at our second event in the CHS).

As for bullying, If you see it, you need to stay something about it. If you don't, you condone the behavior. As a person with a physical disability, I believe that rather deeply. Sorry, If I don't
