1097 happily thanks 368 and 852 :)

[Alan Ing]

On behalf of Team 368, we'd like to thank both teams 1097 and 852 for having us as their alliance partners. We had some early problems shaking down our machine (Bad Battery, loose PWM cable, etc..) and didn't end up very high in the rankings. Thanks to both of you we were able to continue playing in the elimination rounds. We're still on the road making our way to Las Vegas and most of our students will not be able to check the delphi site for a while, but I just wanted to thank everyone for a great time in Seattle.

To Teams 254, 980, and 22. Thanks for a very challenging and exciting final. 254, we had a great old time playing with you on the high scoring match. Anyway, we just wanted to say that you all have truly exceptional teams. We would have loved to have gone the full three rounds against you guys, but it wasn't meant to be.

To the Refs and judges, thank you for trying your best to make the right calls. It isn't an easy job and we appreciate your hard work an efforts at a job which sometimes can be unpopular.

Anyway, were looking forward to Vegas! (Wish we could go to the Nationals though). Perhaps well do a bit better in our rankings!
