Dave, your story doesn't match with the story that I was told. First of all, the scrimmage was in the summer of 2000 ;-) I know that much for sure, especially since Archer didn't have a robot in the summer of 1999, as their team started for the 2000 season.
Unfortunately, I was not there, so my story is only second hand from my team mates. Beach Bot was the #1 seed, but I was told that the only reason for that was that they didn't have any electrical problems during the course of the matches. Every other team had at least one match where they had some type of problem. My team mates were suprised at how few electrical problems there were, considering the circumstances, but apparently they were present.
On another note, if the guys on junkyard wars can build a submarine in 13 hours, think of what a FIRST team could do in 6 weeks!
