Florida Champs!!!!!

[ComBBAT_Amy]

Florida always has a lot of good teams and compeition. In my opinion everyone there was impressive in some way, even the rookie teams were amazing..

I would however like to congratulate all the top teams, in the finals its not only about your robot its about stratagy. Many of the teams who arranged matches seemed to be lacking some of the defensive skills needed in the finals when you have to work on your own, but either way the robots and team spirit were impressive

[Sophey Chan]

Team spirit, if I recall didn't you guys get that award or was it Think Pink, I forget. Heh.


But yes, the Robots were great, but that means nothing without stragedy. When 945 and 1083 (us and University) went up agianst Think Pink and their partners, we used stragedy to throw off the auto on their robot (whcih workjed good for us, cause it work) and we still got our stacking done, thanks to University. Most of the game in stragedy, which was demonstrated in the finals, when the one team went under the bar to push the boxes back into their scoring zone, i believe they won that one, mad props to whatever team that was.

And thanks to the one person on ComBBAT who helped me in looking for a motor, it was appreciated ^_^ No wonder you all got GP

[ComBBAT_Amy]

yeah we got spirit.
yeah i think i remeber that match, its about the stratagy and driver skills..you guys seemed to have both
glad we could be of service with the motor

[Sophey Chan]

Yea, poor him, he went aroudn with me for like 10 minutes lookin' for ya all's mentors, switching form this one to that one, then it turned out they didn't even need it, it was for 665. Man, I felt so bad, but he was in good spirit about it all, so it was cool jsut to talk to him. Thanks.

hey how about when we went up against 233 are other alliance partner blew there transmisson, so it was basically just us and we had to fight them to get there stack, and we fought for like 30-45 seconds and finally got it. I liked it so much cause i could hear everyone cheering it just was intense and fun. i was the arm driver on that match

[Patrick Duffy]

If it was a transmission problem it was probably us
That thing had to be torn apart after every match lol. It miraculously worked pretty decent through the finals, and I think its cause of me & James' Irish luck

[Powers]

Sorry 108, but the transmission problem happened to belong to 1062 that round, i think we got it working right b4 the match, but it blew during, 79 was allied w/ 233 that round. It was fun stuff

[Ryan Albright]

ya you guys had some pretty bad problems. I have to say you where good spors about it and working it all out. And you deserved to win. good job guys and when we lost to you aleast we can say that we lost to the champs HA.

[Patrick Duffy]

We only really won because we talked alot of strategy with our partners, and winning in the finals comes down to King of the Hill more than anything else. Felix (Motorola Engineer) did a really good job throughout that whole competition working on the transmission. Kudos goes to him for working so hard.
Mark did a great job of driving the thing, as usual.

-btw, you guys had a pretty good run too, I was cheering for you guys in your quarterfinal.

Congradulations guys!

[Powers]

Thank you for the vote of confidence

[Ash]

Yeah Ryan_team710, that was a great match, if you want to talk to our arm driver, walesjd is the guy to talk to. He got our arm stuck in your chain...and then the ref. stated calling pinning on us...we couldn't get away from you guys!!!

I do think, however, that that was an awesome match, and great driving you guys. Hope you get to go to Nationals

-Ash

P.S. I was the one with the pink hair and no eyes.

[Ryan Albright]

well i didn see pinning there. You guys where ddong what you had to do to protect your stack and i would of been very disapointed if they called that on you cause personally i was having fun and shaking fter that match i think that was the best match there
