What were everyone's favorite matches this year?

For me it was the Galileo finals, absolutely thrilling the whole way through every game

As someone from 6036 this probably topped my list: Match 12 (R4) - 2023 FIRST Championship - Archimedes Division presented by Kettering University - YouTube

So many amazing matches but I have a couple that I think were pretty cool,

A more generic one here, but Qual 116 on Archimedes was pretty fun to watch, two big name heavy hitters on opposite alliances, pretty satisfying

Curie Finals was also an incredible watch, the sheer speed out of each of the robots on the field was mesmerizing, and given that the scores were so close to the point where it came down to the wire, who handled the pressure better, and who made better decisions. (which was pretty much most of the playoff matches)

Overall, this championship was pretty awesome :slight_smile:

While you can’t find a video, unfortunately, Match 56 from Indiana state champs was epic.

A student from FRC 1720 played violin for the opening ceremonies. She was absolutely phenomenal at it, and could improv super well. I talked the AV crew into cutting the music for a match and letting her improv a score for that match, it was by far one of my favorite matches of all time, it was exhilarating. I can’t wait to see what cool things we might get to cook up for next year’s game, FIRST Crescendo!

What exactly happened here? CAN failure?

This match the FTA wasn’t able to find a root cause even after talking with someone working at NI. We will do some more testing at our field to see if we can figure it out, but something caused CAN to disconnect for the match, and once we brought the bot to pit everything was working (without touching any wires).
