That's awesome--now, how many folks can you recognize from the video?

(And I'm still jonesing for match video. If anybody's got it to stick on YouTube, I'll love you forever.)

After the outdoor field was flooded, we brought the field inside, redesigned it so it was a 2x2 and made it fit into the small cafeteria that the new game was played in. Lots of fun, that ramp in the middle broke our robot like nothing else could.

The game was modified to fit inside that room. Billfred and Michael Walker made their own game committee and was in a room with the committee for 4 hours and came up with this game.

Very cool video, just wish it went on a bit longer (cut off a bit of final touchups). Boy that was fun

Only four; you have probably seen it already but on the 1523 team site here there is some game footage, but focused on us. I mailed all of our raw footage and photos on around five DVDs to Arefin, not sure if anything ever came out of that.

That's giving me far too much credit--Mike led the initial hashing-out of the redesign. All I did was codify it into an actual manual that us refs could really use. (Though I will take credit for the tournament revisions, particularly the one not allowing teams to "graciously accept".)

felt like more than 4 hours to me....though "deliberating" with Mike is always a joy
