We felt good about our interviews, but knew our robot game needed a lot of work. We weren't able to do any "real" practice runs before the tournament and we knew we were over on our time and many programs weren't running as consistently as we wanted. Then, when we got to the tournament, we realized that we had set up our Flexibility mission wrong (our top loop was turned the wrong way). We had to scrap that mission. Our first 2 robot game runs were horrible - 10 (scoring error) and 100. Finally, on the last mission, we got 220! That's a team best score over two seasons.
We came home with the Programming Award, which makes us really proud because that's been the hardest area for us to learn. We also advanced to the Regional Tournament at the Canon School in Concord on December 1st. We're really excited to get another chance to show what we've worked on this season, but we also are working on improving our missions.
