My only complaint

At our regional and the champs other teams didn't feel that we were any good. But in our first ever match we scored so many balls that the refs couldn't count them! But at the champs we were disqualified twice (where our alliance won) which put us way down in the standings and no team considered us (we should have been 6th seed with a 6-1-0 as a rookie at champs).
This thread has a pic of our bot.

But anyway, sorry to hear about what happened. Some people really overlook simple and effective machines. But I feel it would be better to have a simple and effective bot with a good driver than a complicated bot that can't be controlled any day!

Good luck to your team in future seasons.

The pic isn't working for the '06 in that thread.

Any other pics available? It sounds very interesting. A wooden robot earning 8th seed isn't something that happens everyday (not insulting).
