[NPOE] East-coaster. Us folks on the West Coast are still up, it’s only 9:30.:p[/NPOE]
708 took “Damaging” the Defenses a little too literally, and designed a battering ram. This is why most castles have two gates in the same entrance…
We gave up on controlling the rouge member on our alliance…so we decided a cage was suitable for this math
The Sally Port took the term “None Shall Pass” literally
Pro: We damaged the defense.
Con: The defense broke.
Pro: Visibility on the field has improved 100%.
Con: Mobility on the field is now at 0%.
Pro: We ended up winning the match.
Con: The match will be replayed due to a field fault.

That’s one way to open the portcullis.
Back to the drawing board. Which home improvement store can we hit up next to find a new defenses pin?

“Field Staff doesn’t often get in the way of a team’s identity, but Team 708’s 2016 brand, ‘Batters Robotics,’ was crossing a line.”

The match was only stopped after the head ref tried to assign a pinning penalty on the portcullis.

They told the scouters that it was strategic defense.
This was the year 708 went from the Hatters to the Mad Hatters.
708: Now stand aside, worthy adversary!
Portcullis: 'Tis but a scratch!
708: A scratch? You fell over!
Portcullis: No, I didn’t.
708: What’s that, then?
(pause)
Portcullis: I’ve had worse.
708: You liar!
Portcullis: Come on, get past me now! It’s just a flesh wound!

The tech specs said the portcullis should come down after a robot passes through it. We’ll need to revise that…
A young Darth Vader (mask off) uses The Force during competition.
It worked the first time…
