High score of the season

[Lil' Lavery]

217 needs to use some more avatars other than their team logo. Or at least use some WAI pics. This thread is confusing.

Thanks a lot guys. And yeah... sorry but its so good lookin to have it..

My regards and sincere thanks to both team 217 and 469. Besides having outstanding robots (217 hasn't gotten the credit they deserve for the elim results, and 469 deserves all the credit they've gotten) both teams are full of a lot of great people.

We wouldn't have been available to be picked if 469 hadn't given us some great technical help during qualifying. Our robot was glitching all day before we finally got straightened out in our 2nd to last match. Then both teams were very gracious with parts and an excellent strategy during elims. Our best matches of the day came in elimination round -- a credit to the perseverance of our students and help from our fellow competitors.

Looking forward to seeing both teams in Troy. We're going to be a lot better, but I'm sure so will the competition. Our students had a great time and are glad we could contribute to a little bit of history in the making. It couldn't have been more fun to set picks and let the big guys do the scoring -- prolifically!

Sean, will this avatar do?

Great job to 2960 and 469. Dan, it was a pleasure to get the chance to coach with you for the first time. You guys have an amazing robot and I hope we will get to work together again soon. 2960 you guys played some excellent defense in the home zone. I am looking forward to seeing you guys at Troy. 2612, 2673, 308 you guys were great. Congratulations for making it to the finals. I wish you all the best of luck in your future events and hope to see you in Atlanta.

Yes, we recognize it as you, but all of the 217 kids have the same avatar and no WAI's it does get confusing. Then again, my WAI won't work for me anymore (no idea why) so I need a new one soon.


Congrats team 469 on such a cool robot, I can't wait to see it in Atlanta! Good luck with the rest of your season.

Side note, I was just jesting about the 217 avatars. The kind of branding you guys do with it is rather cool.

And it looks like 469 simply cannot manage to beat thier high score. They played another match with 26 points today.

Against us who scored 12. New highest combined score for the season.

[O'Sancheski]

no one is going to beat 26... the only way you will ever score that many is if your alliance partners are 469 and 217

They definitely had an opportunity to beat it today. 217 was on their alliance, and alliance member number 3 (don't recall the number) was in the near zone. The defending robot in their zone never moved. However, partner #3 took a bit to hit their stride, so by the time the loop was going full bore, there was only 40 seconds left or so. Had the loop started earlier, they definitely could've smashed the record.

Maybe Car Nack paid them off.

my team was in that match against 469 and 217. I showed up late to find out that everyone on my team is against playing 6v0(???).

Can someone explain to me why my team wouldn't want to play 6v0 against 469(good), 217(good), and I beleive 1789?(fighting pi also good)? we were with robots that were rookies and stuff...

Luckily our robot didn't move, so we didn't embarrass ourself by not playing 6v0, but had we been helping them I think we could have easily hit 30 points. i'm sad that my team did not want to be a part of the highest scoring match this season...
