Lol, I know the field was a mess too. They were taping up the carpet between matches.

Heh, i spy some nuts and bolts I gave ya!

Yep, Natalie gave me a quick tutorial of "scrounging after a competition", I believe you guys call it, hahah.

P.S. I think you're missing the huge multipe pieces of polycarbonate you guys found .. and you're absolutely right, you can find ANYTHING left over after a competition!

Speaking of debris, I helped packed up the field after the regional, and one of the things I picked up was Mark's que cards with awards and team numbers on them, if anyone want these as momentos, drop me a line and I'll see if I have yours.

Sounds like it got pretty rough up there. Any flags given?

Re: pic: Silicon Valley Field Debris

no yellow flags were given out during SVR. many penalty flags were thrown, but none for rough play (ramming) that i know of. We did get a penalty for pinning 254 to the rackand several warnings were given out to other teams for rough play (but not 766!). I belive that was the first penalty 766 has been given during the time i have been the driver (06-07).

It baffles me how a programming cable could end up as field debri .

Our programmer isn't complaining.
Other stuff that doesn't make sense: drill bits, erasers, and safety glasses.

Re: pic: Silicon Valley Field Debris

The refs were somewhat lax about calling aggressiveness as opposed to LA Regional. I got a warning for ramming and I didn't even know I was doing it! You guys were excellent opponents. Our drive system was too weak to escape your alliance pinning us to the edge of the field. It was a good game.
