Archi-medes!

[Qbranch]

*singing*... Back home again, in Indiana...

Anyhow, from team 1024 I'd like to say thank you all for making this an unforgettable year for all our team and especially our graduating seniors this year (self included ). Unfortunately, we didn't take home the trophy for Archemedes, but this is the farthest our team has ever gotten and we're proud to be Einstein-worthy.

Many thanks to our alliance captains 1124 and their Uber(gripper, arm, bot) (to decode, use the distributive propery of uber ) along with our defending champ 177. It was a pleasure to play with the both of you!

Also, as a from-us-to-us thanks, congratulations and many thanks to all the sub-teams. We couldn't have taken home the World Innovation in Control award without all of your hard work to allow the control system to shine through. Thank You!

Congratulations to all you teams who earned our first ever team awards as well!

A final congratulations to the 1114/217/148 alliance. While I can't speak from personal experience on 217/148, I must say 1114 deserved to be called world champions this year.

Any who dispute it, say they cheated, or whine in general about their slick, smooth Simbot this year has a set screw missing. Congratulations Simbotics on your Championship win!

p.s. 1902 Exploding Bacon: Did you all get your award from us? We went around delivering them and at the time you all weren't in your pit... and now that I'm writing this I don't know if anyone ever delievered it. Please let me know, and if we didn't deliver it, sorry in advance and we'll figure how to get it to you all.
