With virtually no time for software & hardware testing or driver training before the robot was sealed, we got off to a very rough start at this event.  Many of [[DEWBOT VIII]]'s features were not working properly when the event started.  Most of these deficiencies were addressed at the competition; a few still need some work prior to Lenape.

Our qualification match record of 5:4:3 was underwhelming, as was our final ranking of 27 in a field of 38.  Still, our performance improved as the qualification matches progressed (and we got troubled systems working properly).  Fortunately, while not specifically designed a defensive robot, our pivot drive makes DEWBOT a truly formidable defensive player. 341 knows this. Our ability to cross the mid-field barrier easily turns out to be a valuable asset.

Team 1640 after winning Hatboro-Horsham
Together with Alliance partners Teams 341 (Miss Daisy, Alliance Captain) and 1218 (Vulcan Robotics), Team 1640 won the Mid-Atlantic Robotics (MAR) District Event at Hatboro-Horsham Senior High School. Great work by the whole team and a great start to the 2012 competition season!

With virtually no time for software & hardware testing or driver training before the robot was sealed, we got off to a very rough start at this event. Many of DEWBOT VIII's features were not working properly when the event started. Most of these deficiencies were addressed at the competition; a few still need some work prior to Lenape.

Our qualification match record of 5-4-3 was underwhelming, as was our final ranking of 27 in a field of 38. Still, our performance improved as the qualification matches progressed (and we got troubled systems working properly). Fortunately, while not specifically designed a defensive robot, 341 trusted our drive team and our barrier crossing ability enough to put us in this role. While in theory the Fender Defense and Inbounder Blocking could have been executed simply by virtually any drivetrain (though the Fender is hard on omniwheels), we've demonstrated our reliable strategic sensibilities and consistent cooperative play in prior seasons, making us a safe bet for the powerhouse allies. We proved ourselves in this role, executing (in 341's words) virtually flawlessly. Our semi-reasonable/semi-lucky autonomous in qualifications also caught their attention, though it failed throughout eliminations (mostly mechanical).
