The smoke has cleared

Round Two: (recorded at the actual time)

We’re watching the block setup now. Our guys are on the court that’s far away from us now. Also, it’s the court that they didn’t play on the first time. We got a great block setup, and the robot performed excellently. We got to see Chris’ error correction code fix a possible error and we ended up with the same score as last round. That means we’re at 200 total points, and we’re the #1 seed! It was crazy.

Tennessee Tech is going now. They’re running at 90 points, so if they get a perfect round with a black block, two blues, and a white, without pushing any, they can tie our score. Now we’re just worried about getting hit by a robot in the final rounds. The problem is that if we hit a robot and don’t think it’s a wall, we will keep trying to “pick them up.”

Tennessee Tech has NOT run a perfect round, and therefore has NOT beaten our score. We still lead. Rock on.
