Go to Post Build a student a robot and it will keep him/her busy for a few days in the spring. Teach a student how to build(design, wire, program) a robot and they will stay away from home, use some really strange language and wear funny clothes the whole year long. - Al Skierkiewicz [more]

I'd be interested in hearing specifics of high scoring matches in which decent DEFENSE were actually played by more than 1 capable bot against the scoring alliance.

Hanging under duress for a lower score, say a row of 5-6, gets my respect far more often than hanging unimpeded.

F.Y.I team 302 is from Lake Orion not Walled Lake
Yes I knew that. My mistake. Thanks, I have a random noun generator in my head and sometimes it just takes over. Both are suburbs of Detroit and my brain just can't keep from mixing them up.

Sorry Dragons. You guys have an awesome robot this year. That much is so clear even my semi-dyslexic brain can't screw that up.

If you want to see how it was done, here's the video: BAE GSR Quarter Final 1 Match 2

The defense and scoring of the opposing alliance was much weaker than the first match:BAE GSR Quarter Final 1 Match 1
