During our last qualification match, we were actually going to have all 3 robots hang in one match, but because of field problems 5 out of the 6 robots lost comms during the match. Unfortunately they didn't replay it, but we didn't lose so we wern't that upset (it ended out as a tie).

ANd would that last time be when we teamed up with you guys for Detroit last year?

4 robots hanging at once is really impressive. When you have alliances that are diverse enough in their hanging styles to be able to do that, seeing the match unfold so well is really a treat. Great job, 67, 51, 27, and 201!

I was actually convinced that it was a tie when the match ended, so when the scores were posted I freaked out. It was at this point that I really realized that we were in the finals.

Then I went to ice our motors for the next match
