Thanks for the compliment, but our 06 "Gumball machine of doom" actually used just a gravity fed helix to get the balls down to our scoring mechanism. For an example of an auger, look at 233's 2006 robot

No problem, i mentioned auger because that was what we were going to do, I got my design from your '06 design so much obliged it was very nice. But there is a team on youtube that had the auger effect down to a science.

It's the wrong week for us. Our school schedule is shifted over a week from normal. Because of the way the breaks line up, we have to attend a week 2 and week 4 regional. We are also unable to attend Manchester in week 1 like we usually do.
