Video: from the bot's point of view, 1771 goes head to head with the Thunderchickens

We attached a minicam to our bot to record the match for posterity. I merged the botcam with the HD video shot on the sideline by our media person for PIP view. The main window is frozen until the match starts, but that's because that's when the camera started. I need to figure out how to upload HD video to Youtube, it converts it to low quality, so it doesn't look as good there as it does on my computer. EDIT: the HD video is available now. I guess it took some time for Youtube to process the multiple formats.

Anyway, for a team that was totally ignored by Looking Forward, we did pretty darn well, scoring 9 points while under heavy defense by the bot that LF rated #5 in the world. The video was shot during the first quarterfinal match on Galileo.

All kidding aside, we had a blast playing against the #1 seeded alliance, you guys rocked. We just didn't have the offense to beat you. We all played clean, no penalties or red cards. Congratulations to both alliances.
