Anyway, do you know what happened to Flash (FRC#1319) in the 2nd semi match?

Take your pick from two scenarios.
1. The 120A circuit breaker was broken and not providing power to the robot.
2. There was an issue with the field that the FTA and others could not figure out and wanted to keep matches moving. (I am not accusing anyone of anything shady, however we were not given any answers other then it was our robot. Which it may have been)
EDIT: Also are alliance partner 590s robot stopped working in the last final match, we assumed it too was a bad 120A cb, however I am not sure if any of 590s members confirmed it.
It worked in the next match and we did not change anything. When 342 broke there wheel we replaced our 120A cb just to be on the safe side. We have not done any testing on the cb to see if it is bad, but we will be. We have never had a problem with one has anyone else?
But please take into account that each year, the GDC has to come up with a rule book that will spend the next three months being picked apart by 40,000 of the brightest, most creative minds on the planet. I think they do an outstanding job of it. - dtengineering [more]
