2 v 3 in Dallas

[mwmac]

Oh my...

[g_sawchuk]

You said it. They just made 3802 sit on the sidelines, and got 162 points. People are really starting to RUSH, including the elite. Lots of stacks toppling over.

[kmodos]

We were watching this when we all slowly noticed it. It seems kind of ungp in a way if 148 just told them not to put their bot on the field.

Edit: Apparently the third robot was making modifications. I totally don't think that this is unGP the. My wording also probably confused some people.

[MrTechCenter]

It's too crowded in elims with 3 robots on the field and stacks that high. If anything, I hope this makes the GDC realize some things about this game...

[TDav540]

I agree. I don't think it's GP. Even if they just sat there, or undid the upside down totes, that would be better than leaving them on the sideline.

[MrTechCenter]

This doesn't have to happen at later regionals. Simple rule update: You must field all 3 robots during eliminations.

[g_sawchuk]

It is un-GP, but what could they really do? I suppose they could stay in the landfill and make stacks, but not much room for it. Not 148's fault, mainly the GDC's fault.

Please don't point fingers at or accuse teams, directly or indirectly, with incomplete information. 3802 (*and/or 2613) could be broken, or elected to not play themselves.

The GDC also can't really enforce active participation of three robots, only incentivize it.

EDIT: asterisk

[Kyler Hagler]

Their third robot 3802 was working on a step can grabber and was making some modifications... I wouldn't jump to conclusions. It only makes you look bad.

Pointing out that 118's alliance also elected to play with only two robots in their first match, if memory serves correctly.

The alliance of 148, 987, and 3802 do intend to compete with all three robots on the field as soon as 3802 is up and running.

According to the livestream, 118's alliance's third robot was supposed to be on the field for their second quarterfinal match, but didn't make it on time.

Looks like 3802 is coming in on this match.

[mwmac]

good to see full alliance

[btcshields6]

High Rollers 987 actually just sat this match out....Comm issues. Interesting. They're still on top, but what if that happens in finals?

Should this thread be 1 vs 3?
