3rd match: 1 ringer scored
4th match: 4 ringers scored
5th match: 3 ringers scored
6th match: 1 ringer scored
And that was with multiple people scouting your team, so I'm sure it wasn't a personal bias...

Overall, I thought that GLR went off pretty well. My kids had a great time and the other teams were more than generous with spare parts, knowledge and "sharing their lunches". Thanks to all of the teams who made this experience great.

[Edit] Please note: my post was not intended as a personal attack but rather as an example that accusations without foundation are not neccessary on this forum. Bragging and overstating is expected, but attacking other teams without evidence to back up your claims is inappropriate at best.

Another classic example of poor scouting. I as the lead driver know for a fact that the last round we scored 4 rings attempting 5. You want proof...ok. That round we were aligned with team 313 and 1528. Both ramp bots. While they were defending we were scoring ringers at a alarming pace. To add insult to injury that round 1528's ramps failed to work with 50 seconds left in the match so i needed to come back and deploy mine. My ramps were deployed and ready to go with 40 seconds remaining. If i never needed to do that i would have had 6 or 7 rings that round. Askany of our alliance partners. Heck even ask people who werent aligned with us. I am apauled at the blatened act of trying and failing to prove me wrong. No doubt the competition was fun just poorly exicuted
