SBPLI Regional Day One Results

[Adam Y.]

I would like to thank ever single team that attended the regional. I wouldn't be exagerating if I said that almost every single team helped us in these past two days especially 311. Someone from 311 and another from 810 also helped us with programing. I really do not remeber though.

Team Spirit: ?

Wasn't that the Duct Tape Bandets that won that award.

[ZZII 527]

527 is 33/36. We are simply amazing.

We only won one round. We had a bad motor, a bent piston, and a loose PWM. This all happened while we were against 1114 and 311. However by the end we were hanging consistantly and we hope to be ready to mount somewhat of a comeback in our final four matches tomorrow.

Yeah, that was me from 810, I'm not sure if what I told you guys helped at all, as I kinda forgot to check back after. I hope that everything works now? If not, just come grab me again tomorrow and I can try and help.

looks like 311, 1114, and 229 win!

Very close, it was down to the last match. We almost had them, but considering that 810's robot didn't do much except move back and forth (I'm the driver, believe me when I say it couldn't turn), we still did really, really well. We'll be working on fixing up our problems with the drive train at Phily next week, so come Championships we can go for a rematch .

Hey, you guys use our drive train. You gave us your design, but we decided to go with our old one from two years ago, minus the belts, cause it was a lot simpler. Plus, we didn't ride up on any balls ;-).

One thing I did notice, when trying to push against you, I was blowing breakers like mad, although there also seemed to be a point where you guys either popped all the breakers on your 'bot or just forgot to drive forward.

Anyways, don't worry, we'll see you guys again soon enough, as if one week isn't enough :-p.

so thats why you guys asked us if we blew all our breakers? Well nope we didn't blow a single one, I don't know if we forgot to drive forward at one point though cause I only drove in practice.

Yes yes, see you in Pennsylvania
