Re: Is this fair?

I know this is kind of late to be saying, but it may help in later regionals.
One thing you could have done early is to have your bot weighed and sized. Than if you needed to get some programming done, you could have asked the inspector to come to your pit and finish the inspection while you were programming. I have done this in the last two years I have been inspecting. It saves time and results in a less stressful day for the teams and the inspectors.
As for being low in the standings. So what? Just show the other teams what you got and you might be surprised when your number is called during the finals. Our rookie year we were 42nd out of 50 teams. The second seeded team saw potential in our team and picked us. We took second at Western MI.
