Car Nack Predicts 01/08/07

I have to admit that 648 did perform well and I found myself cheering for you, even in the finals. Having missed the top spider and then falling off the middle spider but finally scoring on the bottom is one of those matches that we all live for.

Um Ed, I think you missed a team. 424 had it down. They scored in auton all but 1 qualification match on Saturday and all of their elim matches.

From what I hear our crazy programmers are using their 5 hours this weekend to adapt the code to the 340 bot.

Of course you were! Did you happen to catch the first (and only?) qualification match that we scored in auton? The robot dropped it just short but caught a perfect bounce and hopped right onto the bottom rung. The entire stadium erupted. When that happened, the student programmers got the recognition they so deserve... those two kids are dedicated individuals.
