I think 99 with the puck.
Even though I joined the team after that year, 99's game with the movable puck seemed the most interesting.
After that, 2001, with the bar and bridge.

yea.. i liked 99-00's with the bridge and the balls you have to put in the high up bins. Plus, it was my first year... and the worst robot we ever built. Hah, but it was fun... This years was really good too. It was a good idea...

2001 years game. It was had lost of stratage in it and was fun to watch. Sure it was hard to score, but that added a suspence when they announced the score that Zone Zeal lacked.

I liked 2000 and 2001 equally. The whole bridge thing was very exciting to watch, especially when you are getting close to the end and you need to balance it quickly so you get the multiplier and the bridge is teetering back and forth. I also like the hanging part in 2000. The robots would hang and the other ones would try to knock them off... great games. I didn't particularly like this years game... it was boring, too basic.

Hmm, I'm torn. 2000, 2001, and 2002 were all great competitions, and being they were the only ones that I've been at, I'll have to go with the 2000 comp with 2001 coming in a close second.

2001 was a great year, and the competition was beautiful for us strategy buff out here, but the lack of actual competition was sorely missed.

Now, if only they took the whole balancing thing and added 2 on 2 competition to it. That would be a competition to remember.
