Palmetto Regional

[TheFuhr]

I would like to post a thank you to team538 (Dragon Slayers) for choosing us for your alliance.
We have had a few hard years since the last time we didn't have to box up starting at lunch.

We really enjoyed the entire regional, especially the privalege of defending with this years far-improved drive train.
NOTE: Even with 4 CIMs, a 4 pneumatic wheel tank drive does not turn well. (Last year)

Thanks also to 386 (Voltage) for those awesome Easy Buttons.
Sorry our mentor hit your sensor while we were practicing ramping up. Hehe...

Even though we only made it to the quarter-finals, I feel our alliance was definately good enough to advance to the semis.
But, Murphy's Law struck and both our bot and 538's lost drive chains in different matches.
We look forward to another year of improvement for the 2008 season.

Thanks again to all and congratulations to 342, 832, and 1319.

PS: Sorry to our opposition for going kinda hard on your bots. Hopefully we didn't hurt them [too bad]. Hehehe...
