Predictions: The Big Show -- Achimedes

[meaubry]

So how'd my friend and prognosticator extraordinaire Dr. Joe do, you ask???

Well, first off he had a problem counting to 12, as he only picked 11 (too many good ones to pick from, he must have gotten confused)

Elims-
he picked 9 of the 24 teams

Qtr Finals -
he picked 7 of the 12 teams

Semi's -
he picked 2 of the 6 teams

Finalists of Archimedes -
he picked 2 of the 3 team

Pretty darn good if you ask me - no small task when you consider he was one pick short of his allotted amount.
Even though you didn't pick us, we still love ya - Ooga! Ooga! Ooga!
Go Chiefs

Nice job, my friend

I'm rather surprised that nobody has mentioned the RUSH bot. If you ask me, it was one of the best robots on Archimedes....

It had VERY good ramps, and a pretty darn good manipulator to boot.

Very defensive too; it could push just about anything out of its way... which is what it did when playing against powerful tube scorers

Out of five times we played them we lost four And we lost only three matches in the qualifiers...

I was very happy with our alliance-two strong tube scorers and a good lifter. The fact that we lost in the quarterfinals was just a matter of luck. I was hoping to make it to the Semis and play against PINK though
