(they did not advance from preliminary competition) but it wasnt a vengeance, it was a way of showing our strengths as a team, and that we can pull ourselves together after the bad things happen. we really did better under pressure than we thought we could, and it was a wonderful surprise. hopefully next year we will find a way to defend ourselves from other teams, and perform the tasks. this was a truly amazing beginning year for us, and i hope that it goes just as well, if not better next year.

Hey great stuff and congratulations, beleive me for a rookie team that is not bad, actually its awesome!. But as some of other people suggested rank is not the main thing here, its about the experience, experience that you get while building, competing and helping other teams.

Though i would suggest that you talk to your alliance team, just to get your minds clear as to what they were thinking, and even if they did wrong to you, step up from whats expected of a normal team and forgive them and be happy with you performance this year, cause you did great!.

yea well it wasnt only 1 time. EVRY SINGEL MATCH we had to go rebuild the robot cuz they would all ram us repetedly, grab onto us with their arms, run over us, try to flip us, hit us to $@#$@#$@#$@#ign death, and be a general pain in the $@#$@#$@#.

i dotn see how having to rebuild yr robot after evry match cuz people hold you down FOR MORE THAN 10 SECONDS is normal play and no one shoudl looz points

on a lighter and better note, the team that grabed onto our arm with the multiplyer hand(2xball grabber thing...) we tore a few 175psi welds on it and tore the $@#$@#$@#$@# arm off made me feal better.

also, in evry match exept for 1, our oponent fell over, stoped working, or fought aginst us. so every match was a 2v1, and once a 3v1. 1 time we had a workign partner, and we won incredably. and with the 3v1, he was raming us out of position, and had a clear way out...i dont see that as any acsedent

twards the end i opened up all of the pnumatic flow valves on the cylenders up all the way of 2 of our components, didnt need to use em, but i can tell you that one of them can punch through plywood, so its a good thing we had a nice partney(fell over in a good spot ) so i didnt have to use em

not trying to be mean to the other team, i really liek them, but it dose kinda suck to looze finals cuz sumthing wasnt bolted on tight enuf....lol
