What makes me mad is that when a controller got knocked off during the finals it was like the whole world ended, the stopped and restarted the match, but what about the 5+ other teams that lost control of their robots because of the same thing? I just don't understand.

Aside from that though, really great regional, lots of nice robots and some really cool people

I thought that was only in the begging rounds of the championship matches wow that gracious professionalism went right out the window there lol...I had mix thought on the NJ this year..I didn't think the MC lady was as good as the Asian guy last year and I guess since our robot ( 1403) wasn't doing so hot it sorta ruin the vibe at least we won Engineering Award..and didn't shut up in the stands lol and con grads to 103,25, & 381 you had great robots and good alliance honestly like a minute threw the match I thought you guys should of just stopped there was no way the other alliance would make come back lol
