"Spare Parts" Rules Are Broken

[Astronouth7303]

You haven't seen the bot.
The frame is fiberglass (we work in a wood shop). And we barely had time to change the sprockets, much less swiss-cheese them. but just about everything else was. We fixed that at West MI.

By the way: the arm was it. No bin, no opening side flaps, nothing. We just put a valve on the tank and plugged it in until the match. I'm not saying that we have a disregard for the rules. Our original bot was in weight, but we ran out of sprockets. We made every effort to remain in the rules, however the circumstances were out of our control at that point. Maybe unfairly, you'll say not. We tried our best, but aparently that was not enough.
Maybe you have no heart, maybe you're arrogant, and maybe your right. Maybe some of all 3. In any case, I'm not caring what you say. Maybe we should have forfeited the next match and swiss-cheesed them. I DON'T CARE AT THIS POINT! So what if our bot was crippled? Maybe you were the guy across the field. I'm not caring about you at this point. Any response you make at this point I WILL IGNORE.
