What happened at IRI?

[Josh Hambright]

I noticed something during the competition that kinda seemed odd to me... With all the super powerful robots moving the carpet around and everything... the carpet was actualy stretched and moved thus making the lines in a different place.
Then when at the end of the match they got out the straight edge to see if the goal was across the line it seemed odd since the line had moved about 3 or 4 inches during the match...
Isn't the tape just a marker for where the line should be and the actual line is a distance... or is the line where ever the tape is when the match is over.

Prolly a dumb question but just something i was wondering about....

From team 461 congrats to everyone for an awsome 2 days of competition. I thought there were matches at IRI this year that were better then any of the matches from a spectators perspective then alot of the matches at the 3 regionals our team made it to..

also thankyou to Technokats and cyber blue for putting it on and making it such a great time.

Cant wait till next year
