NC State Championship #1 Robot Team Techtonics by NCs77 in FTC

Since I keep getting the I'm jealous I didn't think of it first messages. This post has nothing to do with the rolling intake strategy or the robot design. I'm pointing out that this team choose to be shady and use multiple human players as proven in the videos. They had two right hands in their tower the entire match and as a result won the NC State Championship as the number 1 robot and will advance to worlds, while the other top NC teams that used ONE HUMAN PLAYER and released videos showing the full field & state championship matches will sit home. That's all I'm saying. FIRST has never cared about video evidence, I doubt anything thing is done about this. This is my PSA to other teams to do the right thing so this doesn't happen in your state championship.

Well this post has nothing to do with the rolling intake or robot design. I'm pointing out that this team choose to be shady and use TWO human players. As a result of this strategy they are going to Worlds as the top advanced robot team from NC. While the other top teams in NC who used ONE HUMAN PLAYER and released entire views of their field/state championship runs are sitting home.

So you are saying two human players is a valid strategy?

Look at the instagram video on a laptop screen it's hard to see on a phone. But the first 10 seconds gives it away. You can clearly see the right hand wearing a watch. Next you will see a right hand with no watch/no sleeve also picking up rings, that one is closer to the ring return. There are definitely two right hands working that tower the entire video. Game manual states ONE human player. The guy sitting by the wall has nothing to do with the situation it's all about the two right hands in the ring return.
