Take an exit with dignity

[mrmummert]

Hi...

I'm with team 1610, We were with you guys at the hotel. Its a shame how things turned out given You all were doing so well on Friday. We think We had the same problem on Saturday. We had trouble on the red end of the field. We would work fine on tether in the pit and it would not even move on the field.We did everything that Matt and Kyle told them to do.

We were one of the back-up teams.(7th then 4th after others left) Although we were late getting inspected for the finals (and yes we were thinking of packing early too, but did'nt) We did'nt start to pack until we were sure we were not needed. This by then was the next to last final round. We were like the fourth alternate and I've never seen anyone go thru three robots in finals (although we came close to that in the finals in Atlanta one year where we also were alternates) So we waited until then to pack.
