Go to Post Are we really at the point where the only useful thing we can discuss is Dean's choice in timekeeping apparel? The man has a watch. He uses it to tell time. Do we really care how much it is worth, or who made it? I would be much more interested in what he does, not what he wears. - dlavery [more]

Re: FIRST Team 1501's worlds first three robot stack

Very proud of you guys. These stacking robots seem to be capable of success and i hope your teams and ours continue to be able to show off this unique way of scoring in future competitions.

We were lining up for the triple balance and 1756 ended up not going up on the bridge straight and got their wheel hooked on the wall. After that 1756 drove in reverse along the wall with the wheels that were touching the ground, making room to put the bridge back down and allowing us to double balance with 1501.

Huh, that's pretty awesome! Nice job on the quick thinking backing off the bridge!

Thanks! Our alliance was able to work really well together and had great communication between coaches/drivers throughout the match. There were multiple times during the elimination rounds that we improvised and changed up our play midgame.
