Joe,
A pleasure to see you and your team again.
Your alliance outplayed ours.
We are now working on getting a new and improved lazy susan which broke down again against you guys. Having no turret really made it tough on our driver.
It was pretty hilarious seeing about 40 ball bearings on the floor after the first match.
I dont understand why they would put that in the KOP if its NOT durable at all. Even your Belt Bearing sponsor who specialized in that came to our pit to tell us it was made for tables, NOT robots........hehe.

Good luck in Vegas, not that you need it.

I couldn't figure out why I was finding ball bearings all over the field in Portland two weeks ago... NOW I know where they come from... probably NOT from 359 but from someone's lazy suzan...

It was probably ours.
We had some in the pits in Portland after the eliminations also.
We had to swap out and remove the top half of our robot multiple times and it became a pain. SVR had some serious bumping and pinning compared to Portland. I saw no other team using it and have yet to see a team that did.
