: Yes, the tent was very loud. We once had to step outside the tent to discuss strategy and we almost missed a match because of it. We came back in the tent and noticed that our robot was gone. We ran to the stage just in time to see Raul shaking his head at us . We did have time to work out the strategy though. Although it would be nice to turn it down a little in the pits so we wouldn't have needed to go outside.

Hey Chris,

I wasn't shaking my head in disgust. More of a Wheooow-I'm-glad-you-showed-up cause we were up against two good teams and I did not want to face them alone. We had had enough bad luck already.

BTW, I am sorry to hear you did not get selected. Unfortunately, one of the problems with being a rookie is that you don't always get the benefit of having a reputation as being a good team to watch. We have been fortunate to have had good robots three years in a row.
