Yup I am defiantly in that pic looking tired as usual. I was up late hiking up a Pocono Mountain (near our) with Erin Rapacki and Kyle to find a tower with a big blinking light on it. We achieved our goal. For those of you who think "big deal its a light", remember "Life's a journey, not a destination" (lyrics from Aerosmith's song "Blind Man"). Thanks Cliff (camtunkpa) for the "single" occupancy hotel room you provided Erin so we can do random things like midnight hiking.
Sarah is correct, Ducky (Andrea) is next to me in the crew shirt. She is a mentor and 3 year team member just like me (she posted more last year which is why Dan-o's rookie year posts are more noticeable). She was the one who built and wore our giant Uppet mascot during the 2001 year(thats how she got the name Ducky, that thing was entirely supported by duct tape). She was Pit Crew on MOEhawk last year which was a difficult task, cause everyone damaged our wings every match. In this pic, I am making sure not to lose Ducky because it is the end of the comp and she graciously provided me a ride back to UD (we both attend that fine university).
Dan-o is probably reflecting on his year of driving, cause the stacking competition was his last match (He is going to RPI). Correction to a previous statement, Dan-o is the driver, not the team captain (Chris Wilkins) or mascot. Furby (Erin or CD handle: Brm789) is not in the pic. Grant (evulish) you were a hard find. I also see Sarah (at the bottom of next bleacher) with her beatiful MOEsticks at her side. Hey can I get a Fury bag for signing your sticks

?
Now about the match. It was a KOH battle special round, that is why everyone is so intent on flipping everyone else . It is just fun not ungracious or against the rules (there basically are none). Adel (ssjcell) don't be so hard on Melanie (she was driving right?). She managed to flip the Robo Wizards in a couple seconds. Tigertrons were waiting for her with their flipping arm after she was done with 522.
Perhaps this is not over. If I can get an Alumni Driver special round at our offseason competition, The Duel on the Delaware, I am sure Big Mike from 25 and Cliff from 222 will sign up for it (since it was their idea

). If they just happened to be randomly pitted

against each other, I wouldn't be suprised (they would beat the laptop with MOEsticks until it ignored the laws of chance and "saw it their way"). However, I would be surprised if either bot made it out of that match in one piece. You will just have to
come to the Duel to find out what happens.
