thank you all right let me know hunter we're gonna begin in three two one and they're up we have blue team succeeding to steal the mobile goals in the autonomous round looks like we have one goal on the point table and that's all she wrote all right autonomous round goes to red team okay uh blue team forfeits to red for touching them all ready we're going to begin our manual driving competition starting in three two one [Music] each these teams have a minute 45 to win it looks like blue team has already taken advantage of an early lead getting the red team mobile goal on their side along with yellow red is attempting to steal blue's mobile goal now teams don't get points for having the opposite team's mobile goal but it does deny the home team those points oh blue has tipped over an attempt to load a mobile goal on their platform for double the points blue taking back their mobile goals red team's scrambling to get any on their side looks like blue's taking the last one from the red team don't worry though we still have a minute now one thing hunter was mentioning about the rules is once the clock hits 30 seconds these teams will not be able to touch the other team's balance uh without being disqualified and that includes touching it through a goal so we have about 10 seconds before these robots are gonna clear well clear of these balances five seconds because nobody wants to get dq there's our 30 second mark both teams still scrambling to get those points neither balance is loaded still 20 seconds red is bringing points steadily back over their side blue team returning the favor ten seconds to go this match can still go either way blue team attempting to stack does not make it [Music] [Applause] well done well done now our next round is going to be on the u main field and dave will be announcing that all right our next match is going to be on the middle field here going to get you started excellent all right so qualification number two on the umaine field we've got 9309 930 303 x 1810 w 65 665a on 1764c we are currently ahead of schedule which is wonderful you ready to go hunter are the teams ready to go can i get thumbs up if teams are ready to go red alliance blue alliance all right we will start autonomous in three two one [Music] all right both alliances going for some mobile goals all right autonomous goes to red we'll be starting [Music] and the rings red alignment still has the yellow on their side oh red alliance in the tug of war 1764c going for that yellow goal look at the clawback grab all right we've got one minute left in this match lots of goals changing hands blue lines with one yellow mobile balance on their side already and we are at 40 seconds in about five seconds those platforms are going to be safe space all right there's the 30 second warning bell and this game goes quiet three mobile goals stacked on the blue alliance platform red's going for some balancing as well doing some cleanup up the middle with the last eight seconds to go and that is an excellent match good work teams hold tight while hunter scores so be a good moment for a quick reminder if you are watching this event and you're right up in the front please make sure you stay in the seats just to make sure that people who are watching can also see the fields but don't forget we've got the live cameras up top that actually have about the best view in the house all right everyone you can see the results from qualification one are on the screen here so we've got the ninja turtles and electric eagles taking the win with 60 points though the nya robotics and ohs robotics did get the autonomous point uh we're going to begin our autonomous driving round shortly this match is between the bradylist bunch cape robotics h infinite improbability and teemi nicotine face all right can i get a thumbs up from all teams if they're ready excellent all right we'll begin our autonomous driving mode in three two one they're off blue team making an early move failing to get any mobile goals on their side they did move so kudos for that looks like we don't have any more activity going on so that's a wash we'll begin our manual driving competition in three two one [Music] both teams advance towards the center blue makes off with two yellow goal posts red team does manage to recover one blue team double loading both of their robots red team sitting in the corner they are guarding a red and a yellow goal post but this is legal since there's only one behind them looks like this is a defensive round team's just waiting for that 30 second mark before the other team cannot touch their platform it's all about strategy folks one minute this is a riveting round looks like uh the red team is attempting to get 40 points for their robot being parked as well as 40 points for having their mobile goal post on the platform if they can balance it in 45 seconds this could even the scores although blue does have more mobile goal posts on their side nearing that 30 second mark so teams are assured that the other team will not be interfering with their platform should see a little more action starting now all right red team has succeeded in getting a robot and mobile goal post on their platform blue team loading yellow goal posts onto their platform they do balance red team oh they just missed that extra goal post and that will not count for points oh it is oh and they completely unbalanced their platform two seconds to go blue team teetering on the edge well played everybody our next match will be on the rim field on the left side you're right we're looking for 93303 f you have one minute on qualification for the rim field f all right in just a moment we'll be doing q4 over here on the rim field to the audience's right we've got monmouth banger yarmouth and monmouth here lots going on our teams ready blue alliance ready thumbs up from blue thumbs up from blue ready to roll thumbs up from red alliance all right we will start autonomous in three two and a half we will start autonomous in three two one all right three of the floor bots go out taking a shot at those yellow goals blue side brings one to its side all right we have an autonomous tire on q4 all right we'll be moving to driver control in three two one [Music] all right the red alliance starts off holding a yellow mobile goal blue's got one in its cause now a lot of action on the blue side of the field b loading one into the bucket right now we got some pretty strong action on the red side of the field but a couple mobile goals loaded up as backpacks here 93303z with two mobile goals loaded up three mobile goals loaded up in carrying a browns [Music] blue alliance looking to backpack another one just about a minute left to go in this match a lot of careful slow work going on in this match red alliance going slow and steady picking up that second yellow mobile goal along with their red alliance goal we're just about approaching the 30-second mark the platforms are now safe and you can see the excitement by the number of screws and nuts that are laying around on the field we're just casually waiting this one out [Music] scores yeah we're kind of limited by all right we've got scores ready qualification number three goes to the blue reliance infinite and probability and timmy mcteen face with 143 to three excellent work on that one we're about to be starting up qualification five on the middle field all right welcome to the umaine field on the blue blue team we have the band of the hawk and the waynflete flyers and on the red team we have dielectric eagles and oh wait we have to do that uh speaking of things you have to do let's make sure everyone's got their safety glasses down can i get a thumbs up from teams that are ready i'm waiting on the blue team blue team all right looks like we are ready so we'll begin our autonomous driving round in three two one [Music] red team came pre-loaded looks like they've already got some points on their stand blue team makes out for the mobile goal post almost gets to ends up farming those rings this one might be close to call hunter all right round goes to the blue team now we'll begin the driving portion starting in three two one back here with a minute 45 on the clock red team scooping up another blue team making use of their push spot getting all three yellow mobile goals playing defense red team carrying around their mobile goal oh they dropped it in favor of a yellow goal post blue team messing around underneath the red platform still cannot liberate that mobile goal oh yes they did blue team makes up the red mobile goal with their rings attached blue team still has majority of the mobile goals although action is occurring all over the blue team we've side some high functioning robots here i mean that literally and figuratively as they lift up their goal posts trying to stack them on the balance 45 seconds to go looks like there's still a lot of action occurring on the blue team's side red team does manage to balance the yellow mobile goal post blue team pushes their goal post and robot on top of their balance for double points 30 seconds to go teams are now assured that the other won't touch their balance blue team they could win it they could lose it all let's see if they can stack this mobile goal oh precarious work thankfully there was no damage red team takes advantage of the lull to make off with the rest of the mobile goals blue team looking to keep those points trying to multiply them by stacking five seconds left this match could go either way red team is almost stacked but they are touching oh very close very close it looks like they may balance all right we'll have scores pretty shortly on the previous round okay heading over to the vrc field we are looking for team 9494a oh excellent perfect here for qualification six we've got lark happy hands the donut earth society and the long earth society from levitt york bangor and cape elizabeth i don't know all right does everybody on this field have safety goggles excellent all right we got about 15 seconds left guys all right can i get a thumbs up from blue alliance thumbs up from red alliance wait that's got to go down all right we're gonna start autonomous in three two one 56j off to a fast start grabbing that yellow mobile goal all right autonomous goes to blue we'll begin driver control in three two one [Music] all right we have a number of different strategies going on here 6476 2b loading up the mobile goals in between the earth there 5156 already stacking on the red platform 56j cruising around the middle loading up rings lots of activity happening these bots are moving fast 9494a trying to grab that blue mobile goal out with about a minute left to go in the match some kind of activity in the corner all right 56 j in control of two mobile goals driving them around while trying to pick up some rings 94 94a heading back over to the red side gain some control we've got 30 seconds left right now platforms are safe all right an impressive stacking bouncing on the blue side platform i can see three mobile goals i'm not sure if there's a point in there there's 56 j cruises around last minute clean up all right excellent match with a lot going on teams hold tight well hunter calculates the score all right our next round will be on the rim field on the red team we have waldy and the p12 copy bara on the blue team we have infinite improbability robotics and stark industries are you guys ready on the red team thumbs up thumbs up how about the blue team are you guys ready got one team ready both teams are ready hunter are we ready we're not ready in the meantime do we have any scores to announce i believe we do have scores but the screen just changed so give me a moment there we go we've got the scores for qualification round number five that one's going to go to the blue alliance with 136 to 89 that's a band of the hawk and the waynflete flyers against dielectric eagles and oh wait we have to do that so q5 nice job blue alliance all right we're gonna begin our autonomous driving round for qualification seven in three two one both teams participating this time red team makes off with the mobile goal that was uh has rings put on it by blue i always thank your neighbors looks like a blue team is in the center brown's going to go to the red team well done all right we'll begin the driving portion in three two one both teams speeding towards the center it looks like red teams making advantage of their autonomous victory keeping those point stands on their side blue team manages to get the mobile goal on top of its flat robot red team looking to get an early balance oh blue team has much to say about that looks like the action is shifted to the red side red team makes off with oh there they go going blue team blocking red trying not to let them take their own colors red team getting a little stuck on the mobile goals as they are long and awkward blue team looking to sabotage red side taking their points right off the balance oh but they missed most of the action is happening on the red side here but the red team is taking advantage of the commotion to farm out the blue point base 40 seconds left we're almost to the point where sabotage will not be allowed and there it is now teams are extra careful not to touch the other team's balance they could disqualify them or at least give the other team more points 18 seconds to go we still only have one mobile goal stacked it's always precarious trying to get a second one up there as you might topple everything but looks like red team did it blue team looking to add one if they let go they will double their score there they go all right we have results from qualification eight that is i'm sorry the next round is qualification eight all right results from qualification six are on the screen the donut earth society from bangor and long earth society from cape elizabeth took the round with 178 points and the autonomous victory our next round will be on the u main field all right in just a moment we're gonna be on qualification eight on the middle field q8's got the trojans the frying pans event horizon and the thick earth society from thornton wyndham cape and maine school of science and mathematics guaranteed to be a good matchup when you've got frying pans on one side yeah all right oh well i guess i'm filling the time thank you everyone for being here um definitely want to shout out the point this place is awesome and this is such a wonderful venue to hold an event like this so nice to have all the space we've got here and the cool lights and fog machines and all that can we get a round of applause for the point and all the volunteers that are here awesome and even a louder one for all the teams that are here awesome it's a very good time and after two years it's really nice to be back doing this all right hunter's doing some technical fixing over on the red alliance side it's a good thing there's not too much high tech happening in here all right all right can i get a thumbs up from the red alliance all right how about a thumbs up from the blue alliance all right wait for hunter's thumbs up excellent we are going to start autonomous in three two one go yes all right we have a couple of repairs that we're going to need to get done on the middle field so in a moment i believe what we're going to do is come over to the vrc main field and run qualification 9 and then come back to qualification 8 but i will give you more details in a moment as we confirm [Music] all right we have confirmation that all teams are ready so we're going to skip ahead to qualification looks like this is nine is that correct okay qualification nine uh that would be the flatter society robots on the red team and the blue we have p12 dummy and p12 cockroach we're gonna begin our autonomous round in three two one [Music] all go teams are participating in this round looks like red team managed to get two mobile goals back blue team got skunked three seconds to go action has stopped points go to the red team beginning our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] red team hoping to capitalize on their early victory but blue team has something else to say about it there's a massive traffic jam going on the reds team side it's very hard to tell which team is which looks like we have some flipped plates here the mobile goals do seem to still be on the red team's side though blue is slowly taking them back red team already has two mobile goals stacked blue team still has the chance to sabotage which they're doing almost they are there they go all right blue team has sabotaged the red platform this is still legal it is outside the 32nd mark by toppling their mobile goals they just have the amount of points that the red team has red team is constantly adding those points maybe they'll have time to repair blue team looking for their first uh platform balance red team looking to repair that damage all right red team's starting over but they do have one to balance blue team looks like they possibly have a supported mobile goal there we go now it balances 20 seconds to go both teams still scrambling for points some defensive action on the blue side 15 seconds to go looks like red's got the lion's share both teams have one mobile goal stacked which means 40 points per goal 20 points for the ones on the ground blue may have a last second stack if they can clear them oh they just have their points all right we're gonna see if we have resolved the technical difficulties for qualification eight if not we may still have points to announce that's right points from qualification seven are on the board now so we do see that the red team which consists of wally from scarborough and p12 capybara from freiburg were the winners with 107 points and the autonomous all right we are going back to eight having fixed the technical difficulties hoping to get a thumbs up from the red alliance both side yep and a thumbs up from both blue teams thumbs up all right so we're gonna go autonomous in three two one go [Music] all right blue lions go straight out grabbing two of the yellow mobile goals and loading up a blue mobile goal with a couple rings red alliance dropping a ring in at the last couple seconds and autonomous goes to blue we are going to start driver control in three two one go all right so here in q8 we've got trojans the frying pans event horizon and thick earth society from thornton wyndham cape and maine school of science and mathematics red alliance loading up the tall yellow mobile goal fully inside the robot with 439s lots of pink picking up a couple goals and a lot of rings lots of action on the blue side of the field red's moving some things around gonna have a little tug of war fight and red takes it all right there are a lot of mobile goals up and in possession at the moment guaranteeing a very interesting end of the match with 50 seconds to go still could go either way blue alliance carefully setting themselves up we're just about to hit the 30-second mark all right platforms are now safe let the balancing game begin both teams working on complicated balancing setups and depressive balance on the blue alliance 12 seconds to go 12 seconds to go not a whole lot moving [Music] all right teams from q8 hold tight i'm gonna take a look and see if there's any scores available all right we've got the scores from qualification nine and on this one we've got the red alliance winning with 106 to 60 congrats to the flat earth society and robots and uh they took out p12 dummy and p12 cockroach in an excellent match we are going to be heading over for qualification 10 now back in order once again that's right qualification 10 is over here on the rim field we're looking to get started hunter's on his way can i just get a thumbs up from each team that you are ready all right we do not have all teams ready so i will let you know who's playing here we've got on red team direct protection and big sur blue team consists of scorpion and the meme team still got some setup going on here folks it's going to be an excellent fight we've already seen quite a few skilled matches here today i can only imagine what you guys are putting up your sleeves don't forget your team is up next make sure that you have queued at the cueing area that's the table on the side over here that way we can make sure these matches are getting started lickety-split as of now i think we're doing an excellent job staying on schedule so i applaud you guys equally important make sure that you're cleaning up after yourselves if you see litter even if it's not yours just scoop it up because we're super happy to be able to use the point it's an excellent location so let's keep them happy guys we'll just ask your patients for a few more minutes here there are few technical snags to unravel but we'll get there excellent looks like hunter is ready to go so we're all ready to go here we're going to begin our autonomous driving round in three two one go [Music] interesting strategy and the red team actually backed their robot up to find where they are and then proceeded forward they did manage to stack a ring in their bucket blue team managed to stack three and one is on top of the post so that'll be more points ron goes to blue team they also have a mobile goal we're starting our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] both teams have come to life looks like blue team is looking to harvest more rings they have a are taking advantage of the fact that you can get more points by putting rings on your stands especially on the stick portion red team is not happy that blue is looking for an early stack there's a tug of war going on in the center here robots are threatening to tip each other over namely the red team blue team is inching towards its platform looking to stack a second because they already have a robot and a mobile goal stack red team not willing to let go this is a unique situation here as both teams gingerly hold a mobile goal over the blue platform the red push button seems helpless as the other robots are holding the platform that it's trying to sabotage the blue team is so very heavy that it does not appear that red can do much to push them around however they still have seven seconds to sabotage that platform so if they're unsuccessful so now that red's touching the mobile platform inside the 30 seconds they may have actually given the other team more points but keep in mind that the red team does still have three mobile goals on their side that they have yet to stack secret is still interfering with oh no i take that back they're taking a mobile goal for themselves there we go that'll add to their count with nine seconds on the clock blue team bouncing rings out of the bucket making sure that their platform stands free [Music] why do you need around here while hunter scores those points i'll see the results of the last battle qualification eight went narrowly to the blue team that would be event horizon from cape elizabeth and the thick earth society from limestone they had 174 points and the autonomous victory over the trojans and frying pans with 151 points all right as soon as possible we will be starting up qualification 11 on the umaine field in the middle we're going to try to catch up on some of those lost technical minutes so we appreciate teams being as ready as they can be all right can i see can we get a thumbs up from the red alliance excellent thumbs up from the blue alliance excellent hunters ready so we are going to go autonomous in three two one go that was hunter's trick all right the blue alliance carrying one of the yellow mobile goals over to its side waiting out the 15 seconds autonomous goes to blue we'll do driver control in three two one go having an issue over here all right lots of action going on in the middle blue alliance and control are trying to stay in control of a couple of the mobile goals the red alliance has a nice little pile going and we're fighting for control in the middle slow and steady going on in q11 here in the middle field a couple of mobile goals being carried around like backpacks couple trying to be lifted with 40 seconds left in the match this could still go a number of ways all right we're coming up on the 32nd warning platforms are now safe all right so we should see a good scrambled red side is looking to stack some red side puts a second mobile goal up on their platform balanced blue working the drive up there 12 seconds left in the match working their way off of their own platform blue is trying to park and balance one second very interesting ending here all right teams hold tight while you wait for the scores our next match is going to be starting up quickly on the vrc main field we are missing team 64 762 b 64762b who apparently just showed up excellent let's see if we've got some scores we do we've got scores for round qualification round 10 with the blue alliance taking it 165 to 81. scorpion and meme team over derook's protection and big surf excellent match autonomous winner blew and they took the match all right over on the left side we have qualification 12. the red team consists of the way wayne flight flyers and appendicitis and blue team is the donut society with the infinite improbability there you go all right looks like all teams are ready we'll begin our autonomous driving round in three two one go [Music] look at that red team just advancing out to the center boldly bringing back a yellow two yellow gold post uh blue team did manage to stack some of those rings three seconds to go though they they missed because the red team already had the goal post so that round goes to the red team we'll begin our manual driving portion in three two one go all right i like what i see here i see donuts and that makes me hungry donuts on the blue team driving around the course looking to bring back those yellow mobile goal posts that red took so early from them looks like the strategy for this donut bot will be to carry multiple goal posts on it just like the red team is doing already oh not if red team has anything to say about it they took it right out of those jaws blue team farming those mobile gold posts bring two back at a time most of the action's still on the red side as red has placed their mobile goal post strategically in the corner all right actually moving to the center no man's land no points for those mobile goal posts that are stuck in the center blue team bringing back two of them including rings 50 seconds to go sabotage is still likely but neither team is stacked yet looks like blue team's looking to there they go right up the ramp red team also looking to balance their platform take a step back here it's getting wild all right platforms are safe here we go that's 30 seconds blue team struggling to balance two mobile goal posts and a robot they suck oh they have gone too far they may still get that red team still strategically planning their stacking action 15 seconds to go both robots working together on blue team to balance looks like they may have another mobile goal post to add nope not quite but they oh they have not cleared their platform that is technically not balanced red team does manage to balance one all right in just a moment we're going to have qualification 13 over on your right quick reminder to the teams to check in at the queuing tables at the far right of the auditorium over here so that we can help keep track of where everyone is we are still catching up a little bit at a time we're going to get ourselves back on schedule as soon as hunter comes over here we will be starting qualification 13 which should be a very interesting match with longer society ninja turtles the brady list bunch and autobots from cape monmouth york and monmouth hunter is here all right do we have thumbs up from the blue alliance both sides thumbs up red awesome thank you all right we're gonna do autonomous in three two one go [Music] all right red alliance going straight out for those yellow goals dumping some rings little tangle up two seconds left all right red alliance takes autonomous and driver control in three two one go qualification 13 pairing up some very powerful dots 56j already stacking on there platform got a little tangle up in the middle mobile goals moving around everywhere all right the red alliance doing a pretty good job keeping the mobile goals over on their side with blue under control and working on getting them to theirs all right with 50 seconds left in the match and a lot of mobile goals on the red alliance side but blue is stacking one on their platform all right we are coming up on the 32nd morning in 2-1 there's the 30-second bell teams are now working to balance and put their put their bots in final positions 5156e going for a park red alliance going for some balancing with eight seconds left to go a little bit of waiting happening [Music] all right that's the end of qualification hold tight teams all right i've got some results here qualification 12 went to the red alliance 86 to 63 the waynflete flyers and appendicitis took that one and i believe we've got another result but i'm not sure possibly not all right if i see one of those come up i will announce it we are going to be moving over to the middle field for qualification 14. welcome back to the umaine field if you are part of qualification 15 make sure that your robot is ready and staged at the queueing area that's the table to the right as of now we'll be beginning qualification 14. qualification 14 consists of the red team infinite improbability and event horizon and the blue team ohs robotics and the flat earth society teams are readying up looks like they're almost there let's do some very complicated designs here looks like each team is equipped to stack those rings which i believe uh is a minimum of one point if you get into the bucket and then increasing amounts of points as they're stacked higher and higher so it'll be interesting to see most likely in autonomous rounds when robots are scooping up those rings and dumping them onto those posts flat earth society rocking those trolls and rubber ducks completely legal and very much embraced by the robotic community all right we'll be beginning this round soon all right we're ready so qualification 14 starting in three two one autonomous round [Music] there go those paddles scooping up the rings looks like red team is the only team participating that's time all right all teams make sure your robot's ready by the time the match starts this round goes to the blue team starting our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] all right 1764c is in the game they are struggling for control over a yellow goal post with zero 48 struggling against them trollbot wildly swing that yellow goal post they do manage to stack it's always dangerous to stack early because red team is right there to tape it over as there they go yep sabotage on the blue platform still locked for possession of the yellow goal posts this battle has been raging since the beginning looks like red team won out blue team scrambling to find another goalpost to take possession of flat air society going back to stack there they go they get they got their mobile goal post stacked on the platform it balances 50 seconds to go red team says no way easily tipping over the platform running back like nothing happened we saw what happened with 40 seconds to go sabotage is still legal so it looks like both teams are kind of waiting for that 30 second mark before they start stacking again oh flat earth society rips away another goal post right out of reds hands that's the 30 second mark got some defensive action going on by blue they don't really want to see their points go but they are going 20 seconds to go trolls are flinging back and forth trying to get those points out of red possession blue still has one stacked so that goal post is worth double and red looks like has more at this point oh blue's going for a second and that's that looks like they got the balance all right we are going to keep things moving as fast as possible over here qualification 15. hunter is here all right well they're getting situated over there we do have results from qualification 13 on the board looks like the long earth society of cape elizabeth and the ninja turtles of monmouth took the round with 146 points and the autonomous victory all right so i'm looking for a thumbs up from the blue alliance blue thumbs up ready to roll thumbs up from red excellent thanks guys all right we're gonna go with autonomous in three two one go all right red alliance off to a fast grab and now we wait [Music] all right qualification 15 we've got big earth society infinite improbability oh wait we have to do that and cape robotics h got some experience spots here making some pretty cool moves mobile goals moving all over the place one of them loaded up with rings oh and one is back in play we have four bots very capable of moving mobile goals and picking them up 43 93 yes also loading up rings onto its backpack red red alliance mobile goal with a minute left to go in the match this could go any direction both teams calm and calculated they're starting on the red side to work with the platform please gathering a few seconds left until we get into the 30-second warning and there's the 30-second bell red alliance looking for a park clear alliance manipulating some more mobile goals with 12 seconds left in the match 51-56-h going for a last-minute balance and they did it excellent work teams hold tight all right we're back over here on the rm field qualification 16 is almost underway both teams are ready so we'll begin our autonomous driving portion in three two one looks like all robots are participating red team makes up for the mobile goal red and blue are both locked in the middle looks like they're not going to resolve that until the match starts that's game points go to the red team all right mobile uh manual driving portion in three two one go both teams off to a roaring start those teams are red team scorpion and p12 dummy blue team wall-e and dielectric eagles blue team with an early point stack ooh they're snatching the red goals already all right i am looking for team 8030a on the middle field oh the red robot has tipped over blue robots certainly not helping him back up races away stacking oh they're not going to risk the stack they don't get points to that red mobile goal red team methodically stacking their rings on their robot it looks like they've got possession of two mobile goals completely ignoring their tipped over teammate but with 50 seconds on the clock it may be worth it to rescue them we're not sure blue team looking maybe for a second stack they're they're managing their resources over there they don't really have to grab anymore but it looks like they're looking too blue team looking to take possession of that nicely stacked ring pile thanking red so much there we go blue team looking for another stack 30 seconds ooh both teams locked in the middle fighting for possession of that stack of rings means more to the red team than the blue but the blue team makes up with it seven seconds to go this is not looking good for red blue team does have a fully stacked platform and that's well done to both teams let's take a look and see if we've got any points to announce there we have it qualification 15 on the board uh the thick earth society of the limestone and infinite improbability of yarmouth taking the cake with 207 points and the autonomous victory all right we're here for qualification 17. looking for a thumbs up from the red alliance safety glasses marcos i mean some random kid okay thumbs up from blue marvelous we're going autonomous in three two one go autonomous goes to blue all right we're going driver control in three two one here in qualification 17 we've got the windham wingnuts p12 cockroach the electric eagles and infinite improbability robotics fighting it out with four very different robots all right the red alliance stacking one up trying to take an early balanced lead lots of chaos going in the middle here cockroach and infinite improbability going back and forth at it two heavy bots fighting it out across the middle those mobile goals are still very much in play heavier on the red side at the moment but still anyone's game with 40 seconds left to go license plates are flying all right 30 second warning now it's time for these bots to start getting technical red alliance still maintaining well let's see we're gonna have to wait and see [Music] all right good match qualification 17. all right we have some scores from qualification 16. this one goes to the blue alliance 120 to 49 goes to wally and the dielectric eagles all right over on the left-hand field we have qualification 18 ready to go red team is teaming with team face and the frying pans blue team big surf and aerobics all teams have confirmed that they are ready so we'll begin our autonomous driving portion in three two one go [Music] 15 seconds for these thoughts to win it red and blue both locked in the center red team wound up with the goal post but was not able to escape and that's time for autonomous mode looks like it might be a wash that's a wash we'll begin our manual driving portion in three two one go all right all teams are active blue team and red both taking a mobile goal post from the center blue team looking to respond to that theft red team slowly making away with the third mobile goal post not moving very quickly but they are acting defensively making sure to hold on to those points blue team has nothing left to do except spin because red teams robots are very heavy and they're both holding on look blue team didn't succeed on one side so they're going to probe the other see maybe they can get it red team to drop one so far those efforts have gone unsuccessfully on the other side we have blue looking to stack their first mobile goal blue team does still have three mobile goals on their side so they have resources red teams playing defensively they haven't moved since probably a minute 15. their screensaver may turn on eventually there we go we're nearing the 30-second mark so red team feels bold enough to begin stacking on their platform there's the 30-second mark blue team still struggling to get their bots and their mobile goal on top of the platform they have 20 seconds to do it very possible red team having a few difficulties getting points onto their own platform 15 seconds to go neither team has stacked yet 10 seconds robots are just looking to manage what they have oh red team unsuccessful blue team also unsuccessful in stacking looks like red lined up with the lion's share that time will let hunter decide in the meantime let's take a look at what hunter has already decided for qualification 17. all right in just a moment we'll be over here for qualification 19. the robots are ready on the rim field hunter's on his way all right all right can i get a thumbs up from blue alliance members thumbs up from red alliance members all right we are going to start autonomous in three two one go all right all the bots go out mix results all right qualification round 19. features stark industries the main team band of the hawk and a binary number i don't feel like saying from york high school scarborough bangor and monmouth some very experienced robots in this mix red alliance already going for their platform for some balancing blue and red fighting it out in the middle and a yellow mobile goal hiding in the corner red alliance doing a little dance up on the platform with one minute left to go still too close to call we've got mobile goals moving from side to side blue alliance in control of four at the moment all right that was the 30-second timer red succeeds with another balanced platform with their bot but we're working their way up hoping to do the same looks like we're still missing a blue team for qualification 20 so if you're participating your robot is ready on the stage [Music] oh there's going to be some close counting there great job q19 hold tight all right we have results from qualification 17 showing that the blue team that is the electric eagles of newcastle and infinite improbability rob maybe robot of yarmouth maine winning with 96 points and the autonomous victory all right qualification 18 going to the red team we had an autonomous time autonomous tie and teaming with team face and the frying pans of limestone and windham took the cake with 83 points compared to 63 on the blue team with big surf and robots all right our next round on the u main field this is qualification 20 both teams looking to ready up still appear to be missing open up all right qualification 20 consists of the red team happy hands and p12 capybara blue team the trojans and dirk's protection all right can i get a confirmation that all teams are ready i see one red team ready both red teams ready blue teams how are you doing one blue team ready no blue team's ready this will be a very one-sided competition all right on that note if you are in qualification 21 make sure your robot is ready and waiting on the field thank you guys and 22 should be ready and queued up on the table all right we're just adding those preloads ready to start confirmation from blue team one starting in the autonomous round in three two one go [Music] all right both of red's robots advance neither makes it back with a goal post 10 seconds to go looks like we've got some video game action of character walking against the wall on the blue team that'll do it that's a wash beginning our manual portion in three two one go [Music] all right looks like these robots are dancing the way they're spinning around the center red team making away with all of the goal posts how can this be you ask well they can fit two on each robot oh blue team has knocked one loose blue team struggling to keep those points on their side most of the points making their way back to red side all four robots locked in the competition each with another red team breaking away steals blue's goal post no points for red but it does deny blew those points both red and blue trying to load those goalposts up on their robots trying to keep them safe but red team still has more on 51 56 d red team takes away two goal posts blue team now has one to their name 45 seconds to go red team not willing to stack on the platform yet blue team making an honest effort to get those points back 30 seconds to go teams might now be bold enough to stack here they go red team putting points on their platform this is the tallest goal post so we're hoping that it stays there it goes they did it blue team looking to stack a few points possibly a robot they're being impeded by the red goal post bulldozing it out of the way with eight seconds to go red team going for their second stack bringing more points across the line three seconds this game is still in the air both teams balances have fallen all right before we advance to our next round i'll check and see if we have results all right our next match qualification 21 should be starting any moment now all four bots are ready in advance before we go let's get that screwdriver out of there results from qualification 19 are displayed you can see that the band of the hawk of bangor and binary for monmouth have won with 136 points and the autonomous victory congratulations all right can i get a thumbs up from blue excellent thumbs up from red wonderful we're gonna go autonomous in three two one go [Music] blue lion's going for two of the yellow mobile goals and bringing them both back successfully red alliance grabbing their own alliance goal and loading it up with some rings all right autonomous goes to blue we're starting driver control in go all right we have a few different strategies going on here a lot of people fighting for those yellow mobile goals piling up with rings blue reliance on the offense we've got a robot tipped a little bit hopefully they can work their way out got a couple mobile goals keeping them in place red alliance slowly but surely gathering and starting to bring some up off into their own platform with rings stacked red align is doing an excellent job with the ring stacking in blue working hard with their own alliance goals with 40 seconds left in the match a lot of activity over on the red side all right 30 second warning both teams working to secure some balanced robots and platforms with 12 seconds left to go they're gonna have to work hard and fast [Music] okay all right qualification 24 hold tight while hunter doesn't score or while the scoring is done i will hand it off i got i got some scores for you qualification 20 with a close score 63 to 43 goes to the red alliance of happy hands and p12 copy bara good work on that one jumping ahead to qualification 22 we have the red team electric eagles and event horizon and the blue team appendicitis and the brady list bunch we're good to start here our autonomous driving period begins in three two one go looks like we have three participants this time oh blue team makes the way with the red or the post just before red gets there but red does get a goal post looks like we might be tied i didn't see any rings stacked that is a tie all right now we'll begin our manual driving portion in three two one go all robots are go that's a relief red team trying to chase around the tallest mobile goal post bring it back also stacking their home team's goal posts both red and blue team blue team possibly looking for an early stack we're not sure yet maybe just loading cargo red team making use of their ring stacker scooping up those rings taking the time to feed their robot rings which is a great strategy if you want to get a few extra points see blue teams roving around in red territory may be looking to add to their collection of goal posts red team wasting no time brings back blue goal post again this only denies blue points doesn't add to the red score 46 seconds to go blue team playing defensively in the corner trying to lift things that their robot might be at a rotational disadvantage to lift 30 seconds they're protecting their platform red team dragging blue team around still looking to get the tallest mobile goal post out of their possession oh red team backs into their own teammate they abandon their efforts still looks like they're sitting pretty with points though making that last second grab trying to deny blue even more points oh they're successful [Music] and that's game before we head off to the next one i'll see what the results are from qualification 21. points are on the board looks like infinite improbability of yarmouth and scorpion of bangor win the match with 101 points and the autonomous victory congratulations our next match is going to be on the umaine field all right thanks so much to the teams on qualification 23 here we're ready to roll all right we're going to be starting up qualification 23. can i get a thumbs up from the red alliance teams excellent thumbs up from the blue alliance teams everyone ready we're going to go autonomous in three two one go all right well we had red alliance making some moves nothing else changes i believe that one's still over the line all right autonomous goes to red we're beginning driver control in three two one go qualification 23 has done earth society big sur cape robotics h and the autobots making some very very different approaches towards grabbing these mobile goals donut earth with one captured in the middle and one off on its side blue alliance is working its way onto the platform red's gonna try to sneak in there and be effective all right with a minute left to go so a lot of bots just just kind of hanging all right red alliance playing some defense here trying to clear that platform up all right with 30 seconds left to go red alliance making a big move trying to get up on their platform while controlling three mobile goals it's a steep hill to climb blue and red fighting in the middle for control oh we have a tip over with four seconds left those goals still are on their side [Music] all right a great last minute battle there on that one good job teams hold tight we'll take a look and see if there are any scores available before we move over to the vrc main field all right we got scores from qualification 22. that goes to the red alliance of electric eagles and event horizon with 84 to 43 win after an autonomous tie great job teams all right over here on the vrc main field we've got qualification 24 ready to begin can i get confirmation that all teams are ready i'm seeing confirmations that all teams are ready hunter we'll begin our autonomous driving portion in three two one go [Music] both teams rushing towards the center neither succeeding in getting a goal post those teams are red team infinite improbability and p12 cockroach blue team the frying pans and waynflete pliers this is a tie folks so we'll begin our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] all right blue team defensively carrying multiple goal posts at once red team following suit looks like they have a deployable basket in the back creative design instead of using their conveyor belts for rings they use them for goal posts it's not considered hoarding if it's on your robot red team racing blue for that goal post blue team realizes this strategy and if they don't snap off that goal post now they will not get it back blue team driving robot and goal post up their platform getting a little push from the teammate oh i stand corrected that is red team looking to farm out the blue gold post well done looks like they breed themselves but did not make off of the goal post they've actually helped the blue team in this case red team still gulping down those goal posts although the blue team's balance platform does appear to balance since the mobile goal is touching the ground is technically not balanced yet all right red team just looking for that major point stack trying to get their big rot robot with all those goal posts on top of their platform we'll see if they can do it in 15 seconds blue team still looking to rectify their point stacking they have 10 seconds to go neither team's platform is balanced yet this is a close game looks like blue team is failing their attempts red team has also failed this is a close match folks will let hunter call that though we'll see the points that hunter has already called all right in just a moment we're going to have qualification 25 over here on the room field yeah the rim field all right can i get a thumbs up from the blue alliance yeah ready to roll thumbs up from the red alliance hunter ready to go excellent we're gonna go autonomous in three two one go looks like that one's gonna have to get resolved in the driver control all right autonomous goes to red we're going driver control in three two one go qualification 25 features infinite improbability band of the hawk mark and p12 copy bara playing hard right out of the gate we've got yarmouth bangor levitt area and fryeburg academy represented here in this match 1764c loading up the rings onto their captured goal already we've got two tall bots two short bots running around doing their jobs team five one two five six f derek the action is uh pretty heavy on the red alliance side with a minute left to go in this match 1764c still dangling a couple of mobile goals around working to grab that yellow goal and take it back to the blue side we're at the red alliance currently in the league going into our 32nd warning all right with 30 seconds left to go the opponent's platforms are generally considered safe as the robots fight for control of the last few mobile goals 1764c just kind of taking a break attempting a stack with a few seconds left and they get it [Music] and qualification 28 ends with a slow rolling yellow mobile goal ending up on the red side great job teams i'm going to do a quick check for any scores announcements and then we'll have qualification 26 coming right up speaking of qualification 26 we've got red team ohs robotics and the thick earth society blue team the dielectric eagles and derrick's protection all right we do have some scores from qualification 24 that goes to the blue alliance 103 to 43 for the frying pans and wayne fleet flyer all right do we have confirmation that all teams are ready seeing the penguins thumbs up red team red team thumbs up blue team all teams are ready starting our autonomous driving portion in three two one [Music] red team with an early snatch red team also dragging the blue team but not quite over the line six seconds to go action has stopped ron goes to red team manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] red team's got the ring conveyor belt going gobbling up rings putting them on the red gold post they've got the yellow gold post up high so no one can reach it great defensive strategy blue team struggling to take back a yellow gold post they appear to be slipping on rings still can't get it out of red territory red not having to play much defense blue team lifting up a goal post possibly looking to stack with a minute to go always a dangerous activity oh red team denies blue team they just stuff that goal post back where it came from reaches the ground 43 seconds to go we've got license plates flying off all right red team now feels confident in stacking they stack both boss ring and mobile posts red and blue forming a train as they struggle for possession oh blue team has been knocked into the red goal post looks like they might be giving up points as they get pushed into the goal post red team making it back with oh all right we have a few mobile goals left in the center their unclaimed points let's take a look at our scores here and see if we have any results qualification 25 went to the infinite improbability of yarmouth and the band of the hawk from bangor with 87 points and the autonomous victory all right we're going to resume in just a moment with qualification 27 over here on the vrc main field i'm looking for thumbs up from the blue alliance thumbs up from both sides yep thumbs up from the red alliance all right we're gonna go autonomous in three two one [Music] instant tug of go on the oh and flatter society pulls straight across waiting out the timer autonomous goes to blue and we're going driver control in three two one go all right we got a lot going on in this match 1764 d trying to get that yellow goal out from underneath the blue the other three bots all fighting over the front of the ring quick balancing from bladder society we've got infant and probability timo nick team case happy hands and the flat earth society all in this match some very experienced spots rolling around red alliance going for control of more of those mobile goals with one minute left in the match we've got some piles forming blue alliance playing a lot of defense across the middle of the field with the red alliance still hanging out right near that blue alliance platform red looking to do some stacking we are coming up on the 32nd warning as all the bots reconvene in the middle of the field 30 second warning blue making an aggressive tall stack in the middle there and landing it it is climbing down gliding down on the field all right hold tight teams we're gonna check in on any any scores that are ready and then head uh head on over to the next match qualification 28 is being hosted on the rim field red team consists of oh wait we have to do that and stark industries blue team is the longest society and p-12 dummy all right q26 goes 194 to 20 to ohs robotics and the thick earth society great work on that huge win there all right on to the match do we have confirmation that all teams are ready got thumbs up so we'll begin our autonomous driving portion in three two one go [Music] all right looks like red team has managed to puke a few rings onto the platform blue team succeeds in getting a mobile base there we have it round goes to the blue team beginning our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] all right methodical movements here both teams blue team managing to snag the majority of the mobile goals neatly placing that in the corner for easy defense red team taking their mobile goals with them so they don't have to worry about them being stolen though we've seen that that may not necessarily guarantee protection red team going for an early stack easy does it they have done it looks like blue team's ring stacker is constantly running they do have several rings stacked on their mobile goal post got a minute to go red team also has several several rings stacked on their mobile post adding the pilot as we speak blue team hoisting that mobile goal post right out of the ring good thing they didn't let go with 40 seconds left looks like both teams are thinking about stacking red teams still just grabbing those rings stacking them up there we go now that the platforms are safe teams are beginning to stack more blue team with two red team looking to stack three this is very precarious as both robots are stacking at the same time with rings on top of the platforms they have succeeded blue team has eight seconds to answer that they still may very precariously with the tallest goal post that is dangerous they have matched excellent round excellent round let's take a look at the points here make sure that we get qualification 27 i believe there it is qualification 27 on the board happy hands of york and the flat earth society of bangor took the round with 176 points and the autonomous victory all right we are here for qualification 29 we've got all four bots ready to roll i believe can i get a thumbs up from the red alliance one and two safety goggles glasses all right start with them okay can i get a thumbs up from the blue alliance excellent we are going to go autonomous in three two one go [Music] red alliance going out for those yellow goals one of them goes back blue alliance going for the win point excellent autonomous goes to red we're going driver control in three two one go so all right we got all four bots fighting for the same mobile goals in there platforms remain largely untouched still with their pre-loaded alliance mobile goals weighting them down apparently all four bots want just those two yellow mobile goals blue alliance with a couple loaded up already inside with 45 seconds left in the match it's a lot of battling going on red alliance making some fast grabs and 30 second warning now alliance is working on a platform stack but hoping that their partner can remove the yellow gold that's in the way with six seconds left in the match can they do it [Music] that's going to be a close call good job all right just want to do a quick reminder for competitors coming to the field please come ready to play with your robots ready and wearing your safety goggles so we can keep this moving i've got some scores to report we've got qualification 28 goes 161 to 142 to the long earth society along with p12 dumb e excellent job on that one all right we're ready with qualification 30 over here on the vrc field can i get confirmation that all teams are ready and they are so we'll begin our autonomous driving portion in three two one go both teams racing towards the center red team makes a way with the yellow mobile goal post blue team gets skunked two seconds on the clock not much activity points go to the red team beginning our manual portion in three two one go [Music] red team capitalizing on their early grab make off with two mobile goal posts blue team looking to answer taking away reds points rad not having it giving them a little love tab blue team putting points back on their side red team bringing them right back oh some early sabotage red was bold enough to sack and they regret it that is time wasted blue team with a successful sabotage teams appear to have taken a breather blue team makes up for the yellow mobile goal post goals are now approximately even red team looking to repair the damage stack again again this is dangerous folks they're stacking outside of 30 seconds which means that blue might be back to sabotage speaking of which the red team is the wing of wingnuts and wally whereas the blue team is nya robotics and binary 33 seconds to go teams must now be very careful not to touch the other's platform or else they'll end up giving the other team more points 20 seconds to go reds looking to add to their monstrous pile of stacks goal posts and they have reduced it okay they're back to where they were blue team looking to possibly stack with 10 seconds to go or maybe just hold on to what they have five seconds red's running a real big risk here to stack but they may have undone themselves will that hunter decide speaking of hunter deciding things we'll see what he decided on qualification 29. results from qualification 29 are on the board by a narrow victory the meme team and the robots of scarborough and bangor took the game with 66 points autonomous victory move on to qualification 31 on the rm field all right our competitors are just about ready to go on the rim field over here for qualification 31. they are double checking batteries and safety goggles and things being plugged in all the possible mix-ups well hunter makes his way here all right can i get a thumbs up from the blue alliance blue lion's looking for two thumbs awesome red alliance all good all right we are going autonomous in three two one go red alliance pulling two mobile goals over to their side all right uh autonomous goes to red and we're going driver control in three two one go oh these bots are coming out hard there's standoffs falling off there's screws in the field oh boy we've got some powerhouses here moving things around fast and furious red alliance working on stacking one of those mobile goals up on the platform while their partner just makes a pile in the corner sorry that was blue alliance everything is moving so fast with 50 seconds left to go in qualification 31 we're looking at donator society band of the hawk p-12 cockroach and event horizon absolutely thrashing the field we are coming up on the 32nd morning there it is the teams now have 30 seconds to work their way up and onto platforms and for final scoring red alliance smoothly balancing on their platform alliance still going for it with four seconds left in the match blue alliance drops of the platform [Music] and there we go all right let's check scores qualification 30 coming back with the red alliance also the autonomous winner with 116 to 80. so congratulations to the windham wingnuts and wally for that win we are going to be moving over to qualification 32. qualification 32 is being held on the umaine field it consists of red team the brady list bunch and dielectric eagles blue team big surf and p12 capybara we'll begin in just a moment i do have confirmation that all teams are ready well i did are all teams ready teams are ready all right we just need a ref hunter is ready we'll begin this match the autonomous portion in three two one go [Music] oh blue team with a narrow miss red team also misses a catch that means that we have all mobile goal posts in the center blue team with a vein loop over there so that's a wash i believe that is a tie now we'll begin our manual portion in three two one go blue team making up for the autonomous miss scooping up two old posts at once red team already has one loaded on their robot blue team making neat piles in the corner red team still struggling to get blue out of their territory blue team taking advantage of the commotion to farm out reds points in the background while blue team's other robot distracts two at once blue team making a very good use of red team's focus now has most of their points oh red team responding they've loaded up the blue platform or the blue mobile goal post and put it on the robot those points can't be used by blue now certainly can't be used by red blue team attempting to escape red territory both forklifts are getting in a clash blue team does make it out alive to get the goal post that's 30 seconds now teams are going to be more careful about touching the platform which means they may be emboldened to stack those points 19 seconds to go no shortage of activity here in the field the robot still worrying around 10 seconds to go neither team is stacked on their platform blue team looking for a last second stack there they go got some possible blocking going on and that's game close match here points flying both ways we'll see what the results are speaking of results qualification 31 will be on the board shortly we see that the donut earth society of bangor in the band of the hawk of bangor took the round with 136 points and the autonomous victory our next match will be over on the vrc main field all right so we're going to be here for qualification 33 on the vrc main field looking for a thumbs up from the blue alliance thumbs up from red alliance thumbs up yep all right we are going autonomous in three two one go all right blue alliance goes out scoring a ring in the yellow and trying to pull it back doesn't quite grab it red alliance going for that autonomous wind point and [Music] unsure [Music] all right here in qualification 33 we have got i'm holding the wrong sheet so i don't know who we've got but we've got four robots two of them are blue and two of them are red and they are competing all right 42 800 a working one of those goals into the corner 1764a keeping control of two red alliance generally taking it slow and steady and working on their stack on their platform blue reliance loading them up into a bucket while their partner keeps moving goals around for them with one minute to go this one's still tough to call this is certainly shaping up to be an organized and careful carefully orchestrated match red alliance going for a possible third balanced goal and with the 30-second warning red alliance with three stacked blue alliance attempting to park on their own platform 15 seconds left and everyone is holding tight [Music] all right good job match 36 comes to a close we're gonna check scores and get right into match 37 we are still trying to catch up a few minutes here thank you so much for the teams for working fast qualification 32 scores goes to the blue alliance of big surf and p12 copy bara with 63-43 after an autonomous tie we're ready here on the irm field for qualification 34. our teams are on the red team fighting gulls and scorpion blue team stark industries and thick earth society can i have visual confirmation that all teams are ready all teams are a go hunter will begin our autonomous round in three two one go [Music] all right blue team stacking those rings blue team has a platform or a mobile goal we'll see if red team did get that over the plane or not but they do have another in their inventory points go to the red team starting our manual portion in three two one go [Music] all right both teams start out with multiple goals on their side we've got a massive tug of war going on in the center looks like blue team is slightly heavier so they're making off with the goal post blue team steps in and helps their partner teams have been separated from that mobile goal looks like the penguins are scooping up more rings i don't think they can fit anymore on that platform it is full got some aggressive action going on on the red side both robots have their mobile goals in the air blue team appears to be working well together red team is on the blue platform looking to not get trapped there by the 30-second mark they did manage to sabotage though red team already has one mobile goal stacked lutein may oh there they go the blue team sabotaging the red platform and that's the trickiest one to stack because it's very tall just in time they sabotaged because now it's 30 seconds no sabotage is allowed ooh blue team looking for major points rolling their robot and two mobile goals on the platform once again blue teams working together with both robots red team looking to even the score trying to stack those points maybe repair the damage that blue team did they do have a significant amount of mobile goals seven seconds left the game could go either way both teams appear to be content looks like red may not have stacked points as it's still touching the ground all right while hunter decides those points let's take a look at the points from qualification 37 33 i'm sorry that'd be autobots an infinite probability infinite improbability with 155 points and the autonomous victory okay over here on uh on the humane field qualification 35 looking for a thumbs up from the red alliance ready to roll thumbs up from blue ready to roll all right we're gonna go autonomous in three two one go fast race for the mobile goals in the middle there with some success autonomous goes to red and we are going qualification 35 brings together electric eagles long earth society tv mcteen face and wally from lincoln cape mssm and scarborough we have some powerful and large robots fighting it out in this match guaranteed to be very interesting as we come up to that 30 second warning 344x doing some balancing work 56j cruising around we have one out of the field hunter's gonna go deal with that with a minute left to go chaos ensues yeah all right we got a tug of war going in the middle oh we have a bot tipped over last 30 second doll has rung tonight well another one out of the field all right where did lance with the last minute drop onto the platform 344x out of commission in the middle a few seconds to go alaska by the red alliance great work teams all right let's check scores from qualification 34 we have a win for the blue alliance stark industries and the thick earth society taking that match 163 to 66 over the fighting goals in scorpion good work next match over to your left on the vrc main field over here on vrc we have qualification 36. can i get a confirmation that all teams are ready i see blue team red team still looking for a team and some safety glasses safety glasses are still up hey blue team nope we still lost connection there we go all right everyone's ready so we'll begin our autonomous driving round in three two one go flat earth society with a quick snatch out of the middle leaving blue with nothing eight seconds to go the action appears to have stopped red team also stacked a ring in a bucket round goes to the red team starting our manual portion in three two one go [Music] robot looking to stack early again this is always a risky move but if there's nothing left to do on the field it might just be worth it over on the rim field we are looking for 5156 f and 1764c for your next match please make your way in blue team has also got an early stack red team looking to tip that over the team defending their points pushing them back onto red territory blue team going for a second stack still not uh sabotaged red team also looking for a second stack there's a lot of action going on in the red territory blue team snagging that tall mobile goal post oh red team came up and ruined blue's day taping over their platform both mobile goals have fallen 45 seconds for blue to clean that up luke still does have time to sabotage but red's not making it easy blue team manages to sabotage with 35 seconds left on the clock that was the last second sabotage as it's now illegal both teams have 20 seconds to repair the damage done by the other this may be difficult as they're still fighting over mobile goals 12 seconds blue team is struggling and covered by the long mobile goal they make it back just in time and that's the round we are looking for 5156 f your match is about to begin we will begin the match without a robot if you are not here ready for your match 51.56f looking at the scoreboard we see from qualification 35 that the electric eagles of newcastle and the longer society of cape elizabeth were the winners with 107 points and the autonomous victory our next match will be on the rim field that's the one on the far it too right last call for 5156f get a thumbs up from the blue alliance both sides one two thumbs up from red safety glasses on yep we're just going all right we're going autonomous in three two one go all right some defensive play with the autonomous [Music] 5156 1764c and 2142h here battling it out 1764 working some of their match loads into the game 205c carrying around one of those mobile goals both platforms still remain untouched on both sides with a minute 15 left to go poor lions coming over and taking that red mobile doll from them blue on the move at this point with 55 seconds left to go there's the 30 second warning red alliance going in for some stacking trying to keep control [Music] while they tally up the points from that round qualification 38 will be taking place on the umaine field team red is the ninja turtles and binary whereas team blue are the robots and larc all right we'll see if we have any scores available before we start up qualification 38. there we go we got scores from qualification 36. the red alliance takes it with 86 to 60 for the flat earth society and oh wait we have to do that all right while they fix a technical snag over on on 38 i just want to remind teams to be ready at your fields with license plates with the correct color ready at least one full match ahead so that we can keep this going all right we have confirmation that all teams are ready for qualification 38 so we'll begin our autonomous driving portion in three two one go [Music] all bots are functional let's see if they can bring those points back ooh blue actually ends up helping the red team pushing a mobile goal over those that plane red team gets one for themselves red team also stacks rings points go to the red team starting our manual portion in three two one go [Music] blue team basically looking to call back those points that they lost in the autonomous round looks like they've been largely successful now they just have to defend them while the red team attempts to scoop up the mobile goals and put them on their robots for safe keeping blue team's robots may be low to the ground but they are fast they're able to get back many mobile goals well red attempts to slowly stack them on top of theirs blue team bringing back red's mobile goal post denying them points red team makes it back with blue's mobile goal post to deny them points now they're tangling bots are stuck on each other while on the other side of the field the robots are having a pushing competition red team is denying blue entry into red territory it looks like perhaps the other way around it's too soon to tell nearing our 32nd mark there it is now teams are not allowed to touch the other's mobile goal so is if you when one team is pushing another red team has an interesting platform dropper it's got a wheel that is using attempting to get two mobile goals and a robot on top of the platform blue team just looking to reclaim some points they do have a healthy amount on their side three seconds to win it [Applause] all right we are still making steady progress toward catching up on our regular schedule we are here for qualification 39. blue alliance ready red alliance ready all right we're gonna go autonomous in three two one go [Music] blue alliance grabs one of the three yellow mobile goals brings it over to their side red going for the autonomous wind point all right and autonomous goes to blue we're going driver control in three two one go all right all four bots getting to work quickly wrangling control of those yellow mobile goals trying to keep them generally on their sides red alliance taking one of those blue mobile goals over to their side keeping things busy making people play offense and defense 930 303 f maintaining their control over one of those yellow platforms while the red alliance keeps moving things back and forth we've got 54 seconds left in this match and everything is focused over here on the red side at the moment there we go blue's working some working some goals out we have a bit of a pile we are coming up on the 32nd time there's the 30 second timer many teams need to be extremely careful around other platforms with 20 seconds left through the robots are moving around one of them clinging to its own pile and hoping for the best three seconds left in the match [Music] all right and qualification 42 comes to a close we'll take a quick look at scores it might be two ready all right qualification 38 goes to the blue alliance with an 80 to 68 win that's for robots and mark against ninja turtles and uh some binary code do we have another one maybe a qualification 39 not another one excellent then we are caught up now i did take a look at binary team binary and see if maybe they spelled something like dead beef and hexadecimal but it turns out it's actually their team number so i'm just going to call them team binary it also translates to w and as c so i might just call you team w alright can i get confirmation that all teams are ready for qualification 40. all teams are ready so we'll begin our autonomous mode in three two one go all right seven seconds to go blue team is zipping around red team did manage to make off with a mobile goal that is a tie both teams have mobile goals so we'll start the manual mode in three two one go [Music] team w looking to grab that w there they go massive pile up on the red side struggling over two mobile goals those points are good for anybody because they're yellow blue team is really hoping to bring it back but they're just pushing it closer to red side since this is the big awkward mobile goal neither team is really able to move it that well red team lifting it up we're looking for team 1764b 1764 b on the u main field power move on the red team lifting up that tall mobile goal above the competition dropping it right on their team's balance red and blue are still locked in battle trying to get the control of that yellow short goal post blue team tipped over but did end up with possession blue teams playing defensively now try and not give up those points red team appears to be taking a rest on their platform making sure that the tall mobile goal stays there now that they're safe within the 30 second mark they're going to go get more possibly stack them up red team is not intentionally blocking they're uh trying to lift up their yellow goal it appears their gears are stripping blue team is following red around trying to take back that yellow goal they settle for a red goal very quick possession blue team manages to get robot and mobile goal on top of their platform with five seconds to go and blue team is dragging points across they've done it that looks likely that it'll be a blue victory but we'll let hunter decide great job to all teams we do have qualification 39 on the board here looks like the trojans from saco and infinite improbability rob from yarmouth have taken the round with 80 points the appendicitis and nya robotics did however take an autonomous victory all right we are here qualification 41. i'm looking for thumbs up from the red alliance little answer you all ready okay all right we are going autonomous in three two one go [Music] all right blue alliance grabbing one of the yellow mobile goals right off the bat grabbing two of the yellow mobile goals right off the bat with three seconds left to go autonomous goes to blue we're going driver control in three two one go we have some parts landing that we don't recognize all right there's a pile of robots in one corner 4393x working on its own over on the red side taking that red mobile doll from them we've got one tipped overbought 1764 blue roads went into a bucket and while the donut earth society grabs yet a third mobile goal and slowly is working its way toward balancing we have 58 seconds left to go we've got platforms on both sides robots on both sides we have balancing driving control 64 762 working on its three goals 34 seconds left in the match and there's the 30 second warning two bots left moving around in this match the left side going for another balance platform can they get it with 10 seconds left right alliance with it out all right good job teams all right we're going to look at some scores qualification 40 with the team matchups of happy hands and main team against cape robotics h and the waynflete flyers goes to the blue alliance with 113 to 83 after an autonomous tie so that was a great match these matches are getting pretty aggressive scores are getting higher we do appreciate the team's efforts to get to the fields on time it makes all the difference for us trying to keep the event running we're going to be heading over to vrc mainfield in a moment for qualification 42 i believe all right just a reminder to our teams that uh if you're not uh queuing up or on a field do go back to your pits because there are some interviews with judges that you guys can be doing um also don't forget about skills all right so we have qualification 42. looks like all sides are a go waiting for wait for teammate all right starting our autonomous round in three two one go [Music] all right looks like red team did grab a mobile goal they have made it back blue team did stack some rings but i think red has more points from that yes red has the victory so let's go to our manual driving mode and three two one go all right this is qualification 42 so the red team is the brady of the sponge and wannabe hayden's blue team is p12 cockroach and stark industries we have a lot of calamity going on on the red team side blue team taking advantage for an early stack who team attempted to stack maybe they'll get back to it later red team trying to drive up their platform with three not one not two but three mobile platforms it's a very precarious task considering they have a minute left for blue to sabotage got some uh meticulous operations going on in blue territory red has a blue mobile gold dangling by one fork they do make it across the field with it red team still struggling to get their robot and three platforms on top of their balance blue team dragging around their battery that could go so quickly 30 seconds left so no one's gonna interfere theoretically blue team does have one point stacks blue team is getting rammed into the red platform not sure how that affects the score oh redneck blue may have just unstacked themselves hopefully they can rectify that red team still looking to get robot and two mobile goals on top of their platform three seconds left blue going for a last second drop oh they toppled that is unfortunate all right we'll let hunter score this i'm going to take a look at these scores over here from qualification 41. there we have it the donut earth society of bangor and infinite improbability of yarmouth took the win with 110 points all right i'll turn it over to dave all right we're here on the rim field qualification 43 and i believe we are ready to roll can i get thumbs up from blue alliance thumbs up from red alliance excellent we're going autonomous in three two one go [Music] all right in qualification 43 we've got robots electric eagles copy bar and thick earth going to the autonomous goes to the red alliance we are going driver control in three two one go all right we've got bangor lincoln fryburg academy and mssm all represented here four solid bots with four different approaches 4393 s loading up the rings on its captured blue mobile goal the action is pretty well spread out at the moment with a minute 10 left to go in the match we've got one stacked we've got parts falling apart two triple zero five a moving around 52 seconds left in the match yeah we got some tangling stuff going up oh we got hung up on rings we got a white screen 30 seconds left [Music] left in the match [Music] all right no doubt some questions to be discussed as we look up some of the scores in previous matches all right qualification round 42 a tight tight match goes to the blue alliance of p12 cockroach and stark industries with a 39-46 win so that was a very very tight match all right our next next match is on the u main field this is qualification 44. while we wait for hunter i'll just get confirmation that all teams are ready okay still waiting on the blue team and a referee on the red team we have the trojans and the autobots blue team consists of oh wait we have to do that and scorpion looks like blue team did forget they have to do that 3 now seems like a perfect time for a big thank you for our field resetting volunteers who have been working very very hard to make sure that the fields are ready and perfect yeah there we go they make the rest of our jobs a whole lot easier so thank you thank you thank you excellent hunter is all ready to go so we'll begin our driving menu automatic driving portion in three two one go [Music] red team coyly tosses a ring into their bucket blue team makes off with a yellow mobile goal red team spinning ring or blue team spinning rings into their bucket red team hats their own mobile goal but i don't know if that means points points go to the blue team all right let's begin our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] all right blue forklifts a yellow mobile goal post across the center line other blue robot goes back for more swipes a mobile goal post out of red's hands red carrying two at once blue and red still locked in combat just scrounging for those mobile goals red making off with three at a time blue team still going for minor points by stacking rings they're successful hopefully those rings aren't stolen red team looking to line up their stack on their platform blue team having nothing to do with it they still have time to sabotage this attempt blue team attempting to close their claw around one of those mobile goal posts that red wants to stack having no luck they try the other one red playing keep away blue team lining up their own mobile goal and robot stack creating that dangerous period of the 30 second mark blue team evacuates red team manages to get their robot and four mobile goals to balance on their platform amazing blue team manages to get their robot and two mobile goals to balance on their platform equally amazing blue teams still looking to put one more mobile goal on their platform precarious but it does land both teams are balanced for five seconds to go [Music] well done to both teams that was a high quality match now let's take a look at what we have for results all right we're gonna go right on to qualification 45. can i get a thumbs up from the balloon reliance over here thumbs up are you ready great and red alliance excellent we are going to go driver control i'm sorry we're going to go autonomous in three two one qualification 45 features b12 dummy appendicitis ninja turtles and the frying pans both sides managed to nab a yellow mobile goal [Music] and autonomous goes to blue we are going driver control in three two one go as you've probably seen as the day goes on these matches get more and more interesting as the teams dial in their robots and their strategy these four bots clearly each have a plan going on red alliance with a quick steal of the red mobile goal from the blue side p12 dummy playing a little protective measure in the corner well nine triple zero or nine something the alliance grabs the red red mobile goal quickly and sneaks it back into their corner 9303 f balancing carefully with two mobile goals and we've got a lot going on in that blue alliance front corner as we get near the end of the match we got 45 seconds left in this match and these bots are fast and furious moving things from side to side red alliance going forward that's a mobile goal on a platform with 30 seconds left platforms are now dangerous territory red rolling rolling yellow back lower lines protecting its pile as red attempts to make some last-minute moves [Music] all right great match 45 take a look and see if there are any scores to report we've got qualification match 44 another tight and very very high scoring game 191-182 taken by the trojans and autobots against oh wait we have to do that and scorpion great job to the sako and monmouth teams on that one our next match is going to be over on uh on the rim field to your right and it looks like all the kids are ready to go all right this is qualification 46. red team is infinite improbability robotics and ohs robotics blue team is the binary w and kate robotics h we'll begin our autonomous round if everyone's ready in three two one go [Music] there we have it blue with a quick snag red team returns empty-handed blue team's still following some routine we're not sure where it's going there it is points go to the blue team starting our manual portion in three two one go [Music] massive chaos in the center all robots are competing for those central mobile goals red team coordinating who gets what blue team sitting pretty in the corner with two mobile goals blue team also farming out the center trying to get that last yellow mobile goal red team making short work of blues mobile goals hefting them back to their side in record speed blue team having none of it both teams are challenging each other red team almost tipped over blue's robot blue team back to where they were hoisting the mobile goal in the air red team zipping around the field getting those mobile goals it's almost hard to keep track of where they are anymore because they're moving so fast red team quickly ends up with the lion's share of mobile goals blue team appears to have lost connection now it's up to one robot blue team has no choice but to puppy guard their remaining points and wait for that 30 second mark when it's safe to drop points on the platform there they go they're feeling confident it appears that blue's battery was disconnected and that's why they've lost connection blue team shoving right in the corner they don't really want to let them get away with those points we've got i see a computer cover laying on the ground all there red team playing hardball any points left on the ground were moved over the red side they don't even have to stack them [Music] very good let's take a look all right qualification 45 resulted in a blue victory with the ninja turtles of monmouth and the frying pans in windham they got 106 points and the autonomous victory next match will take place on the umaine field with dave all right qualification 47. okay him looking for a thumbs up from the red alliance thumbs up from the blue alliance and we are ready to go autonomous in three two one all right match 47 brings us wally to work protection fan of the hawk and flatter society got it all right autonomous goes to red and we are going driver control in three two one [Music] well qualification 47 is underway we are looking for our qualification 48 contestants if you would make your way over to the field all these bots have a plan we've already got one yellow stacked on the blue four fast spots making a lot of moves here with the minute 20 left in the match there's a lot of mobile goals on the blue side flatter society trolls spinning around in the middle red alliance making a grab for the blues mobile goal red slow and steady working the yellow goal over into the corner with 47 seconds left to go these mobile goals are still moving back and forth red going for a balanced goal on the platform but we're still making their piles and getting ready we are fast approaching the 32nd bell there it is during the last 30 seconds contact is very limited over on the vrc field we're still missing two teams so if you're in qualification 48 please make your way over to vrc field all right qualification 47 comes to an end i'm gonna check for any uh any existing scores but we are looking for multiple teams for our next match 56 g and 94.94 a you have moments left before this becomes a one-on-one match all right we've got scores from qualification 46. in this case the red alliance infinite and probability and ohs robotics take it with 80-46 all right and a small announcement we are going to be replaying match 43 after match 50 just before lunch because of a white screen issue so just a heads up for those robots over here on the vrc field this is qualification 48 the red team consists of the windham wingnuts and larc blue team is the event horizon and the meme team bringing you classic memes since 2005. i don't know if that's true you should make sure the announcement was at 43 years [Music] is ready we do beginning autonomous round in three two one go [Music] blue team with a very fast snatch red team is allowed to grab one mobile goal post also blue team putting rings in their bucket it's kind of a one-up game here looks like blue team may end up with the most points we'll let hunter decide yes blue team took the victory now onto the manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] looks like blue team's feeding themselves rings looking for those ring stacking points one at a time that is red team with an early points stack on their platform that means that they get double the points for this yellow mobile base blue team taking advantage of their early stack and sabotaging their efforts not even waiting for them to drop the second one red team easily replaces what they lost red team also hauling back a mobile goal from blues territory successfully blue team could not stop them red team taking mobile goals faster than blue can turn around blue team scrambling to recover there they go falling back two yellow mobile goals on the blue side i see nuts and bolts rolling all over the field here this is an intense fight 40 seconds on the clock red team going for another stack with blue team precariously next to their platform evacuating before they get dinged from being inside the 30-second mark blue team does manage to stack one and now are going for two mobile goals on the platform red team still looking to repair the sabotage still only have one mobile base on their platform 12 seconds on the clock blue looking to add to their collection of neatly stacked goods they succeed five seconds to go blue making a last-second snatch will they make it they do not we're gonna take a little break here and look at our score our next match will be on the rim field qualification 47 went to wally of scarborough and derek's protection of york they scored 107 points and the autonomous victory all right we are here on the room field for qualification 49 a quick reminder again after match 15 we will be replaying match 43 but here on 49 we're going to get a check from the blue alliance thumbs up blue alliance ready to go red alliance thumbs up excellent we're going to go autonomous in 3 2 1 go all right three of the bots making some moves red alliance attempting a late grab of the center yellow mobile goal and autonomous goes to blue we're gonna go driver control in three two one go this is qualification 49 we've got happy hands nya robotics dielectric eagles and infinite improbability from york yarmouth lincoln and oh north yarmouth lincoln and yarmouth high schools both teams going for early control of those yellow mobile goals and leaving the home platforms alone for the moment definitely got some pushing and shoving going on fighting for that second mobile goal 5156d determined to take it we're still looking for teams six five six six five b on the u main field so please make your way over before the match starts all right red alliance slowly but surely moving mobile goals over to their side blue alliance working on a lift red going for a fast and furious balance with 47 seconds left in the match all right we've got 36 seconds left coming up on the 30-second window with another successful fast balancing job by 5156 d all right we are fighting for the yellow yellow mobile goal in the middle the last mobile goal available all four bots fighting hard 15 seconds left to go there's a lot of metal smashing into metal red takes control of that yellow platform and with an excellent blocking move red holds the blue bot on their side all right good job teams see if there's any scores qualifications 48 with a big win to the blue alliance with 148 to 80. that was team event horizon 56g from cape elizabeth and the main team from scarborough great job teams here on the main field qualification 50 is ready to rumble we've got the red team of longer society and infinite improbability blue team is the waynflete flyers and the big serve what a pal all right do you have confirmation that all teams are ready we do autonomous rounds starting in three two one go [Music] both red and blue race to the center and are now stuck in a struggle over the yellow goal post i do hear both robots attempting to move they are stuck in place red team does make it back across the line with a mobile goal post though so under hunter's analysis looks like rings are not allowed on the field if put there by a human during the autonomous round what was the result round goes to the red team all right now beginning our manual portion in three two one go red team already with a yellow goal post in its claws is able to make off with rings goal posts you name it blue team struggling with the tallest mobile goal post i recommend that everyone back up from the edge for that one blue team unhappily ramming red trying to get that yellow mobile goal post out of its clutches both red teams robots are carrying two mobile posts one of their own color and one yellow blue is also carrying one of their own and one yellow goal post looking to get an early stack of both robot and goal post they have a minute to do this and easily are walking up the platform other blue robot is stuck on a purple ring both red robots are parked defensively waiting for the 30-second mark oh they are looking to sabotage blue quickly zipping across the field toppling the platform blue team holding on this is no ordinary battle blue team was unable to take advantage of red's movement because they're still stuck on the rings red team taking advantage of the 30-second mark to stack those mobile goals plowing blew out of the way they don't want them anywhere near blue team looking to recover they have 18 seconds to get their robot back on the platform looks like red team also lost a few mobile goals off their platform but it is so far balancing as they attempt to stack more blue team almost has its stack yeah out of time so now we'll be replaying round 43 on the vrc main field see if there are any scores here real quick all right qualification 49 scores wound up in happy hands from york and nya robotics of yarmouth they had 120 points autonomous victory did go to the blue all right and we are back here for the replay of qualification 43. all right we just gotta dial in a quick field change a little pre-check are we good to go on blue thumbs up from blue good to go on red all right give us a moment all right all right we are ready for autonomous in three two one go [Music] all right red alliance grabs one of the yellow mobile goals and takes autonomous we're gonna go driver control in three two one go [Music] all right we are replaying match 43 due to a white screen of death as it is known for very capable robots fighting it out again 43-93 s dangling that yellow mobile goal up high while carefully maneuvering it red platform still untouched all right the blue alliance working hard on a combined strategy here red also not wasting any time taking the blue mobile goal 4993 s loading up some rings in its backpack there setting up for some extra points and we are coming up on the 30-second warning right there blue making a last-minute grab for one of the red alliance mobile goals blue with the last second drop there all right great replay folks hold tight while the game is scored we are now breaking for lunch and we've got scores for match 50 which goes with a big win to longer society and infinite improbability 169 to 40 over the waynflete flyers and big surf so thank you again to our volunteers everyone's going to take a break eat some lunch we will be back here 12 45 starting it all back up again all right and we have the scores from the rematch of qualification 43 blue alliance takes it 80 to 66 p12 copy bara and the thick earth society great job teams we will see you after lunch check one all right we are looking for the robots for qualification 51. so we're looking for 515 5156h so we will be making every attempt to keep these matches moving super fast throughout this next patch so if you uh you know if your teammates with some friends who might be a little less punctual feel free to nudge them along as it becomes time for their match but we do have all four bats off all four bats all four robots here for match 51. all right 51 56h are you anyone have some goggles we can borrow over here very quickly for one match thank you so much awesome all right all right plugged in can i get a thumbs up from the blue alliance thumbs up from the red alliance excellent we are going to go autonomous in three two one go [Music] red alliance off to a quick grab as we wait out five more seconds and autonomous goes to red we're going driver control in three two one go [Music] red team going right back at that yellow mobile goal they were looking for before blue team working on their own side 5156h fighting over some rings here while the red alliance protects their space a couple of the bots doing their own thing well one red one blue fight in the corner 43 93 x with a good double grab here hoping to maintain their maintain their ownership of these mobile goals we've got 58 seconds left in this match 205a working their way into that corner trying to hang on to the yellow mobile goal while 4393x protects its mobile goals 51-56h with a great grab taking control of two of those with 37 seconds left in the match and there's the 30 second warning teams must be very careful around the opposing platform all right we got a lot of defense being played here 4393x looking to balance another platform with a ring wedged underneath it all right that will likely generate some discussion and we will not have any match results quite yet so we'll move right back over to the rimfield for for match 52. all right this is qualification for 52 on the rim field that means on the red team we've got the donut earth society and the ninja turtles fighting the blue team which consists of the trojans and quali all right i've gotten confirmation that all of our teams are ready so hunter if you're ready we'll begin our autonomous driving portion in three two one go both teams off to a great start red team does manage to get a yellow goal post back blue team with a later yellow goal post approach uh maybe delivering those points to the red team we'll see oh they make it back with two in an autonomous attempt that is incredible points go to the blue team red team did manage to stack some of those rings though so we'll start our manual portion in three two one go and they're off i see a donut moving across the planes trying to return those yellow mobile goal posts but blue team scoops both of them up looks like they've got capacity for one more red team getting pushed back on the blue side trying to escape and they do they escape with the blue mobile platform red and blue are interlocked on the other side of the field struggling over the last remaining yellow goal post red team appears to have possession but things change quickly here blue team returning its own color onto its side blue team has one mobile goal to its name plus three stacked up on a robot red sheen has both of its colored mobile plat mobile goals it's trying to get them up the ramp with a robot we've got 46 seconds for them to do this there's still time for sabotage both teams are riding up their ramps with robots blue team is attempting to sabotage they have six seconds left to do so ooh they're out of time all right this looks like it's gonna be a very quiet match after this blue team manages to balance a robot and four mobile goals on a platform whereas the red team has managed to get their donut bot and two mobile goals on top of the platform looks like we might just be waiting out the remaining 12 seconds it's gonna be a quiet one so if you guys are here i'm willing to talk awesome well played guys we are looking for team 5156 f please make your way to the field all right qualification 53 here on the main field red alliance can i get a thumbs up if you're ready excellent glasses on over here and blue alliance blue line is ready you need to answer york we're starting all right we're starting autonomous in three two one go [Music] red alliance with a grab of one of those yellow mobile goals waiting out the rest go all right a lot of activity on the red alliance side with almost almost five of those mobile goals over there already blue platform still remaining largely untouched but 56 pulls one of their team t-mobile goals into the corner red alliance holding on tight to those goals trying to wait out the tug of war with a minute seven seconds left in this match it still could change hands but currently five of the mobile goals are over on the red side blue with its own mobile goals secure on its side of the field the struggle continues and with 30 seconds left in the match teams are reminded to be extremely careful of the platforms as there are heavy penalties assessed for making contact with them 56h making some last minute balancing moves on their platform red alliance working on it blue alliance drops the yellow [Music] and the last drop balances out the blue side all right let's see if we have any match results before we head on yes qualification round 52 goes 196 to 110 with the trojans from saco and wally from scarborough taking that win great job teams heading over to vrc maine over here on the vrc field we have qualification 54 ready to get underway i'm just double checking each team's status and safety glasses looks like we are all set so we'll begin our autonomous portion maybe on the red team we have binary w's and fighting goals on the blue team we have p12 dumb e and happy hands excellent we're ready to start our autonomous round it'll start in three two one go [Music] blue team quick to the line first thought missed allowing red to get the goal potentially once it makes ooh red takes one from blue blue has one red has two points go to red team starting our manual portion in three two one go [Music] red starts with an advantage having two mobile goals already on its robot on both sides of the field robots are scuffling for points looks like blue made up with one of those early victory points oh but red sabotages blue's early stack blue team looking to recuperate being hampered by red at every step of the way points do appear to have migrated onto the blue side of the stage but they're not staying there for long blue team and red team duking it out in every case on the far side of the field the blue team does appear to be doing maybe some deadlift exercises just testing out their robot potentially blue team charging into red territory failing to grab red's mobile goal but they do knock a mobile goal out of red's hands there is endless commotion here as we near the 30 second mark the final score is still unclear which means this is an excellent fight blue team going for a stack they do balance blue team trips on the turn recovers looking for a second stack red team going for their first they do manage to break the plane with that oh it's back over the line this could be a close call there it goes it is in red territory all right we'll let the results come out on that one as for the previous results you can see on qualification 53 that larc of turner maine and the frying pans of windham did take the victory with 116 points and the autonomous point all right over here on the rim field we've got qualifier 55. and it looks like everybody is ready to go thank you so much blue team are you blue alliance are you ready excellent red alliance ready excellent all right we're going autonomous in three two one go a lot of movement goes to blue all right now we've got driver control in three two one go qualifier firefox 55 princess academy scarborough yarmouth and cape elizabeth matched up many times against each other over the last few months red team mounting a coordinated attack here [Music] we are looking for the brady-less bunch we appear to be brady-less bunch-less all right two very different approaches going on here we're trying to keep things clean blue hanging onto as much as possible all at once with 55 seconds left to go things are still unclear but the blue team is holding strong on to some of those mobile goals well a couple mobile goals lay dormant on the red side any team introducing some match rings while red snags the yellow goal out from blue 30 second warning platforms now are mostly protected as they scramble for the mobile goals at the end red team attempting some last minute steals of the mobile goals team five one five six e brady's bunch please report to jay and the cockroach three seconds left in the match [Music] gonna be some close calls in there but a great match good work folks we'll take a look and see if there's some results to report while we get ready for qualification 56. all right on q54 the blue alliance takes it 100 to 666 p12 dummy and happy hands great job folks real oh all right over on the umaine field we're looking to begin qualification 56 we do appear to be a man down so it's going to be a one-on-two fight red versus blue red team consists of the band of the hawk whereas the blue team is the wing wing windham wingnuts and infinite improbability quick announcement we seem to be missing an entire call nevermind do we have it back disregard me all right starting the autonomous round in three two one go we have a later rival of the brady-less bunch that did make it into the game do not appear to be autonomously driving so blue managed to haul away the yellow goal post those are the only points so blue gets the victory our manual driving mode begins in three two one go and all robots are in the game incredible our red pushbot is bringing back a mobile goal already bradylist bunch also brings back a mobile goal but the blue team has something to say about that as they haul away red's own color the pushbot is in the corner somehow stacking mobile goals although it's in the wrong collar territory to be helpful it's a fierce little bot but it's no match for the gargantuan blue robot that is trying to push out of the way red pushbot does make off with a red gold post but blue is already farming out a yellow one from red territory meanwhile the other blue bot does have two mobile goal posts of its own color stacked atop it we still have 53 seconds so no one is anxious to stack on their platform yet but they are in position to blue team is playing mostly defensively now seeming to have a narrow majority of points on their side oh and they take red's own color adding insult to injury oh now that it's safe to load those mobile platforms i expect we'll see a few more robots doing so wow the band of the hawk managed to load a mobile goal post on top of their push bot it did not stay blue is still struggling to load their platform red team also has not successfully loaded their platform yet and there are still points in the middle so this round could go either way [Music] that's it oh and we end with points sent towards the middle all right that's a close match let's take a look at another close match here qualification 55 between uh p12 cockroach and meme team and infinite improbability and long earth society blue team did take the victory with 72 points and the autonomous win all right we're gonna dive right into qualifier 57 with autonomous in three two one go [Music] right side with a double grab taking two of the yellow mobile goals to their side we are waiting out the last few seconds and autonomous goes to red we're going driver control in three two one go getting things under control red alliance in control of four of those mobile goals at the moment but possibly not for long with 80 30a going for it right off the top of the platform trying to steal that one back a minute 10 left in this match we got a lot of activity at the red platform 93 30x is uh just driving around they got their time they're not falling into the trap and with 32 seconds left in this match it's about to get interesting red alliance is tangled up we're looking for nya robotics on the rim field team four two nine five seven eight all right yeah red going for some last minute working on pushing that across the back edge and they do nice last minute move by the red alliance let's take a look at results from our previous match qualification 56 a big win 66 to 20 for the windham wing nuts and infinite improbability good job heading back over to the rimfield for qualification 58 looking like we might be waiting for some bots it's time for you to hurry up just a quick announcement here if you're in qualification 59 your robot should be at the queuing table right now we're going to start qualification 58 over here if all teams are ready can i get a thumbs up team's still working on robots those teams are on the red side event horizon and robots on the blue side nya robotics and scorpion again if you're in qualification 59 and 60 you should be readying up thank you i have confirmation from our teams now all right we just need some safety glasses on the course here there we go teams are starting autonomous round in three two one go red team zips into the center makes away with both mobile goal there is still a goal post in the center for grabs no one's moving and the round goes to the red team starting our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] red team starts out with two mobile goal posts in their clause excellent start blue team already recovered the talio goal post and is mining rings putting on them on the blue gold post red team does the same blue team inching towards red just trying to get one of those goal posts red team too fast for them driving away to mine more rings this is somewhat comical to watch oh no blue team has fallen over but it rated itself looks like we have lost power okay we're back blue online resumes chasing red around hopefully one of these days they will get the go they get the post they have knocked the mobile goal out of the team 56's hands right now they're just running interference while their teammate continues to gulp up rings now that we're inside 30 seconds our contestants turn their attention to stacking on the platform blue team attempts to drive up a robot a fully loaded goal post and a yellow goal post which is the largest goal post with a little help from a friend they do manage to get all three on top red team has stacked their rings goal post and is looking at second just in time doubling their score speaking of scores let's take a look at the results from qualification 57 we have the waynflete flyers from portland and the flat earth society of bangor taking the win with 136 points and autonomous victory all right we've got qualifier 59 ready to roll we're gonna go autonomous in three two one go and all four bots go for a routine with varying degrees of success oh my goodness 1764c loading up with rings control [Music] match 59 brings us stark industries dialectic eagles infinite improbability and appendicitis these are from york lincoln yarmouth and monmouth floorbots who have clearly seen some activity the blue alliance carrying a lot around we have one bot not responding on the blue alliance all right 5156c moving around while carrying their red as a backpack they are fighting out for that yellow activity all over the field at the moment with 46 seconds left to go in the match red alliance has a couple mobile boards unbalanced on the platform poor alliance balancing a yellow on their platform looking to recover from being one bot down 51-56 with a second balance mobile goal and a 30-second warning 5156 loading up some rings waiting it out while blue attempts to score more with seven seconds left to go a little bit of chaos going on [Music] and 62 comes to a close we'll take a look at scores from previous matches what do we have qualifier 58 with another big score from event horizon and robots for roberts 168 to 123 great job over on vrc mainfield is qualification 60 on the red team we have big surf and thick earth society blue team consists of infinite improbability robotics and wannabe hayden's just a reminder if you're in qualified qualifications 61 and 62. you guys are on deck and in the hole fun tidbit about wannabe haydens in case you're wondering about the name hayden was their reigning champion who graduated so they have big shoes to fill you everyone's all set i'm just gonna get one more thumbs up all right starting autonomous round in three two one go oh red team with a lightning quick grab that would be the mssn penguins oh red team making contact with blue in the autonomous round not sure how that scored they did block their advance points go to the blue side all right that was for the interference so manual driving rounds starting in three two one go robots rumble the life here we go red team looking for a lightning quick stack scooping up rings as they go on the other side of the field do you looks like a pushbot at this point because the forks are up it's duking it out with the other forks up pushbot and here's some clicking gears here so you can see that the red and blue team are locked in combat struggling for the control of blue wow that was a fling all right blue team launching reds mobile goal across the field red has been stripped of mobile goals they do not have any on their side but there are plenty of mobile goals stacked on their robots 51 seconds to go this match could go either way neither team has gained significant position yet as we know that 30-second mark i think the ties will start to change as robots do stack things there goes the red team maybe looking for a stack maybe trying to break up that traffic jam that's going on across the center line there we go red team drives up the ramp with two mobile goals and a robot and it's good blue team trying to push the last of the mobile goals onto their side they do have four in their possession red team has three plus two stacked and a robot stacked [Music] let's take a walk and see what we have for scores from qualification 59 looks like the blue team was the winner that is infinite in probability of yarmouth and appendicitis of monmouth with 180 points and the autonomous victory congratulations all right over here on the ring field qualifier 61 just as soon as this field is reset by our phenomenally speedy volunteers we will be ready to go it is looking pretty good speaking of phenomenal speed we are looking for our red team on qualification 62. use that phenomenal stuff okay can i get a thumbs up from the blue alliance and a thumbs up from the red alliance excellent we are going autonomous in three two one go [Music] all right red alliance goes out strong looking for one or two we'll wait and see pick up one of the yellow an autonomous goes to red all right we're going driver control in three two one go [Music] red alliance giving themselves a good start by getting control of a couple of the yellow mobile goals both platforms still remain untouched as the robots worry about other things blue going for an early balance while fighting for the middle red protecting its early winds in the corner two triple zero five a dragging around one of those yellow mobile goals bites by its arm while their teammate picks up an alliance goal and now they're gonna go fight with the red alliance for control of that yellow mobile goal in the air this is definitely one of the more interesting parts of this game until robots go for the same mobile goal with 53 seconds left to go still anybody's game 56h hanging out as secure as they can well i believe stack's another mobile goal balanced on their platform and we are approaching the 32nd morning and there it is it's time for everybody to be careful all right continues to fight for that corner while the red alliance stacks a yellow mobile goal on their platform blue alliance deals a red platform from red mobile golf and them and with three two one left in the match excellent match folks let's take a look at previous scores qualification round 60 goes to big surf and thick earth society from old orchard and limestone with a win of 159 over 86. over here on the u main field we have qualification 62 awaiting confirmation on the red team we have infinite improbability and wally on the blue team the fighting goals and oh wait we have to do that looks like we do we do have confirmation so we'll start our autonomous driving round in three two one go [Music] we're looking for all the bots from qualification 63 coming up all four robots from q63 both bots have breached the center line looks like only red brought back a mobile goal brown goes to the red team starting our manual driving round in three two one go [Music] our team quickly jams their stash in the corner goes for more blue team stripping in the center and playing interference on the red scene we go red with a quick stack goes to attack blue get them out of their territory pushing that yellow mobile back to where it was they don't necessarily need to be touching it they just want to keep it safe blue is unable to cause interference on red's platform because there is a platform under the platform all right there's a big old traffic jam going on in red territory blue does free itself along with a mobile goal lifts it above red in a taunt 45 seconds left on the clock red team bulldozing attempting to uh manicure its landscape whereas red and blue are still locked fighting over the yellow goal post both sides threatening to tip their robot over trying to stop the other meanwhile the 32nd timer has gone off blue teams taking advantage of the commotion red team is blocked and cannot stop the smaller blue robot from taking away all the mobile goals from the other corner there are 12 seconds to go so they may make it make it away with these points seven seconds these robots will have to decide if they're going to continue to remain in conflict or run away with points [Music] that may have just broken the plane we'll see all right points points points let's see how qualifications 61 ended and we are still looking for bots on qualifying 63 93303 x and 42 957a qualification 61 goes to the wing and win winged ham wingnuts of windham main and oh and we're off to the next race all right if we don't hear from these other two teams we're going to be having a one-on-one here all right so i have a thumbs up from the blue side thumbs up from the red alliance all right all right we're going autonomous in three two one go [Music] 64-76 with a good clean grab and a second excellent autonomous goes to blue and we'll begin driver control in three two one go all right this is a two-on-one match 64-76 giving it all they got definitely a little engine that could kind of scenario going here this is awesome red alliance carefully focused on carefully focused on putting their mobile goals up on the platform we're still looking for team 1764c doing what it can with 55 seconds left in the match the red alliance does have control of more of the mobile goals but blue is putting up a good fight we're approaching the 30-second warning and there it is red alliance taking it slow and steady with a gutsy move under the red platform and that is it we'll take a look at a previous match numbers here qualifier 62 goes to infinite improbability and wally from yarmouth and scarborough 116 to 20 and a big all win over on the rm field we've got qualification 64 all set on the red team scorpion and happy hands on the blue team infinite improbability and p12 cockroach all right can we start getting confirmations that teams are ready confirmation on blue team autonomous round 64 beginning in three two one go [Music] blue team with the early snatch red team makes it back first both teams now have mobile goals and are attempting to scoop rings into their buckets red team narrowly misses the large center goal we have a tactical malfunction here round goes to the blue team all right we'll begin our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] as the robots come alive they all are congregating around the last available mobile goal folks it's getting dangerous here i might back up red team harassing blue which is taking away red's own color mobile goal red team with an early stack quickly sabotaged by blue blue team still looking to stack those rings charging the wall i reiterate this is dangerous could be the next rendition of battle bots there's a massive pile up going on over here on the blue side all four robots interlocked with another robot all right blue team taking advantage of this low center of gravity tipping over the red robot does not manage to get the mobile goal post from it though still taking a swing at it in the meantime we've got blue and red still locked in place trying to get the yellow goal post and we've crossed the 30 second mark now so blue is safe to deposit their cargo on the platform we now have blue doing double duty on the red robot over here blue with its second successful stack red appears to be stuck on the rings which will lead to points left on the board because they can't get their robot across the line two seconds to go stay on the blue side all right excellent effort everyone qualification 63 results are posted we've got the frying pans of windom and nya robotics of yarmouth with 80 points autonomous point did go to the blue team all right we're going to be starting out match 65 in a moment over here match 65 has flat earth society binary the brady brady list bunch and the trojans all right we're ready for autonomous in three two one go flatter going out for a fast and early grab of the yellow mobile goal while their teammate goes for two others an excellent autonomous grab by 93303 z and autonomous goes to red we're going to begin driver control in three two one go red starts off with an early lead by having control of three of those yellow mobile goals blue's got control of their own and is looking for a way to work through this strategy with the minute and thirty left they may have time to do it 5156e lining up and with a minute three left the blue alliance does manage to grab one of the red alliance mobile goals and has taken a shot at those yellows in the corner and there's the 30-second warning red alliance moving into their platform to try to rearrange some of the goals that they grabbed earlier on blue alliance with three mobile goals two of which are their own possibly looking to park up on their platform while their partner attempts at last-minute steal all right and that ends qualifier 65. let's take a look at the scores 64 goes to infinite improbability and p12 cockroach with a score of 162 to 49 over scorpion and happy hands great job over on the vrc main field we have qualifications 66 looking to run on the red team we have the meme team and teaming team face on the blue team thicker society and p12 dummy teams are ready beginning our autonomous round in three two one go both teams off to a lightning fast start both teams managed to grab a mobile goal post red team did manage to get a ring into one of them looks like that may just be the tipping point red team gets the win onto our manual driving portion in three two one go red and blue bots lock in combat struggling for control of the yellow goal post meanwhile red team is coolly collecting gold posts only to be sabotaged by blue who drags them back across the field they're going in circles blue team scooping up rings as they go sort of like football here where every robot has someone they're covering points are just being buried across the field there's not a clear winner yet red team decides it's a good time to stack viciously guarding their platform hoping no one knocks it down because they still have 40 seconds on the clock blue team decides it's a good idea to stack as well why stop at one platform they might just load their whole robot rings and two mobile goals 30 seconds now that the platforms are safe red team working together to load a robot and mobile goal only thanks to teamwork where they're able to get their robot on top blue team still struggling to get up their platform trying the other side maybe getting more friction seven seconds to go well this will be a close round let's take a quick look back here at qualification 55 we can see that the flat earth society of bangor and the binary m team from er sorry binary w team from monmouth maine took the cake with 126 points and the autonomous victory all right we will be resuming with qualco qualifier 67 in just a moment quick announcement we are going to be replaying a match after match 80 which is the final scheduled match of the day we will be replaying match 63 match 63 we had a scheduling conflict between the judges and our own printed schedule and that led to a team missing their match we will be replaying that match after match 80. so we are over here on the rim field for qualification 67 everybody's ready to roll so we're gonna go autonomous in three two one go all four bots going out couple fighting over a yellow yellow mobile goal they're gonna have to determine that one once we're in driver control and that isn't autonomous goes to blow all right we're gonna go drive our control in three [Music] during autonomous floor bots moving quickly around this field little power struggle going between blue and red in the middle over that yellow mobile goal with the minute 20 left to go they still certainly can change it up 64-76 hanging on to one inside it's red alliance grabbing control of three of the mobile goals at once and taking them back to their side 80 30a coming back around looking to put up a little fight for 64.762 most of the gameplay happening over on the red side at the moment blue reliance platform still resting in position with 44 seconds left to go red alliance playing a lot of defense at this point we're trying to grab some mobile goals 30 second warning happening now time to get very careful as we approach these platforms with 12 seconds left these thoughts are all still trying to make small grabs and see what they can accomplish with red making a fast parking move trying to balance themselves out will they do it not quite but excellent match from those four bots let's take a look at the scores from qualifier 66. this one relatively close for the 96 to 88 win we've got man team and timmy mcteen face from scarborough and limestone good job over on the you main field qualification 68 is ready to begin can i get some thumbs up all right we have thumbs up we just need a rep so we'll go on the red team appendicitis and larc blue team big surf and oh hhs robotics we're going to begin our autonomous round in three two one go [Music] red team makes a polite steal from the center unanswered by blue four seconds to go that's time points do go to red starting our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] it's a pile of going on in the center rolling the tallest goal post across the line points do seem to be gravitating towards the red side though both sides have robots locked in competition red team taking advantage of the din to pull away blue's last remaining points blue team pushing those points back finding it unacceptable they go back for more taking away red's home color red tea manages to push two at once out of blue territory no clear strategy yet it's all chaos red team pushing boatloads more into their territory blue team doing the same on the other side of the field red team hoists one up onto their robot maybe this will prevent it from being taken away from them 30 seconds left red team did wind up with quite a few more goal posts but blue team has already taken them back massive battle going on over the red territory line blue team deposits its own color back in its territory six seconds to go we'll see who is victorious in getting points out of red territory [Music] looks like it was a red team also red team was the win of the qualification 66 7 round the wannabe hadens of bangor and dielectric eagles of newcastle had 90 points even though blue team had the autonomous victory all right the qualifier 69 over here on the vrc field vrc mainfield we are ready to roll regarding autonomous in three two one go 56j trying out something new all right autonomous goes to blue and we're going driver control in three two one go [Music] all right we got some very different bots going over here for qualifier 69 over here in qualifier 70 we are lacking two of our teams so if you are in qualification 70 make sure you do arrive all right it's getting rough in the middle 56j with a very fast bot moving around trying to retain control blue alliance working on a yellow yellow mobile goal and working on loading their own into that large basket three of the four bots kind of all focusing in the same general area one not so much blue with the last minute grab to bring that over bring the yellow mobile goal over to their side as we've got 45 seconds left in the match all right and the 30-second timer has gone all right there's 19 seconds left in this match people are being very careful red alliance trying to go for some last minute grabs blue alliance hoping to get something up on their platform we have seven seconds left [Music] it was a very active middle and end of that match the rimfield is still looking for a team 56 g and 51-56f we've got scores from qualification qualification i can't talk anymore qualifier 68 we've got scores the red alliance took that one 116 to 40. so congratulations to team 93303 f appendicitis and 94.94 hey lark over on the rim field we're beginning qualification 70. that consists of the stark industries on the red team and on the blue team derek's protection and the waynflete flyers i'm sorry that's event horizon for red team all right as soon as we get confirmation we'll begin the round all right safety glasses on we're starting this round in three two one go [Music] we're looking for team 344 r on the main field team three we are no longer looking all right we've got five seconds to go looks like blue team has hauled a mobile goal back red team did stack some rings points go to the blue team starting our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] blue team a one-man army that would be the waynflete flyers red team looking to gobble up rings going for extra points blue team running any interference that they can looking to swipe those goal posts from the clutches of the red team maybe blocking the red team as they go going for an early stack because why not they're successful one minute left blue team looking to sabotage unsuccessfully red team looking to grab another goal post 43 seconds to go blue team holding off the red team all on its own red team bringing back yet another goal post it's not looking great as we cross the 30-second threshold red team makes another successful stack on their platform blue team looking to do the same oh nuts they dropped their mobile goal posts they've got 10 seconds left to recover meanwhile the red team has now stacked three mobile goal posts and they're attempting to rob blue team of their last mobile goal ooh looks like blue team sabotaged his own efforts in the last second that'll be a close one to call looking back on qualification 69 we see that infinite improbability of yarmouth and the rabbits of bangor maine took the victory with both the autonomous victory and 96 points okay over on the main field in the middle we've got qualification 71 all the teams are ready we just need our head ref once again huge huge thank you to all the volunteers who came out today and in particular the kids who keep putting these fields back together for us left and right and the teams for being here on time and early we've actually been able to stay really on schedule for the second part of the day so this is excellent great work we've got another nine matches in the regular listing and then one replay happening after qualification 80. and then we'll be moving into the tail end of our day and i believe bringing the middle school in here as well correct i think so yes yes middle school will be joining us it should get hectic and loud and we want to hear lots and lots of screaming from everybody all right so for qualifier 71 it's been a little bit can i get another thumbs up for the red alliance awesome thumbs up for blue ready to roll wonderful all right we are gonna go autonomous in three two one go [Music] robots made a move i don't believe anything changed hands autonomous tie all right we're going driver control in three two one go g71 here has the blade of this bunch wally the main team and the flying hands from york scarborough and wyndham i'll give you one guess which one is the frying pans robot all right we have four very different robots going up this goal here red alliance platform pretty much left alone everybody's going for the middle everybody's going for those yellow mobile goals the alliance gets too under their control red focuses on keeping things on their own side we have 50 seconds left to go red and blue going at it over that blue alliance mobile goal platform's still empty with 30 seconds left to go time for all the teams to be careful as they drive near the opposing platform still in control of two mobile goals hoping to get it over toward that blue platform but 344x coming in for a late steal of that yellow seven seconds left to go [Music] all right a great match for q71 let's take a look at any scores that have come in qualification 70 goes to event horizon 56g and stark industries 5156c from cape elizabeth and york with 160 to 46 over 5156 f and 1897. great job qualification 72 autonomous round is beginning in three two one go [Music] red team with an early snatch they get both mobile goal posts no team has gone for the center goal post yet red team's stacking some rings red team consists of the thick earth society and infinite improbability they take the point starting our manual round in three two one go on the blue team we have nya robotics and donut earth society massive calamity in the center robots clashing blue team ends up with the last mobile goal looks rather silly but it does have the tallest mobile goal sticking up like a tree as it drives around red team is folding four mobile goal posts on their robots blue team has two on their robot plus one on its territory it's a dangerous fight going on in red territory over the yellow goal post red has possession blue team running interference red team playing keep away until it sees 30 seconds on the clock meanwhile the donut earth society is struggling to balance the extremely tall goal posts on their platform but to no avail the balance is technically level but it is not balanced 36 seconds to go red team beginning its plan getting one robot two platform or two mobile goals and a set of rings on the platform carefully stacking a third on there deposits their stack of rings meanwhile the donut earth society is precariously perched on the blue platform looking to write themselves they do succeed to get a robot and one mobile platform from my vantage point a well played round by all for sure before we move on we do have results from qualification 71 the round narrowly goes to the brady-less bunch of york and wally of scarborough with a an autonomous tie and 63 points all right we've got qualifier 73 over here on the rim field we're starting up with autonomous in three two one go all four bots making a grab for the same mobile goals one of them comes back with one 80 30 b with the grab and the blue alliance takes autonomous we're going driver control in three two one go q73 brings us the red alliance of p12 cockroach and autobots and a blue reliance of the dialectic eagles and what the heck why not one zero one one zero one one zero zero zero one one zero one one there we go and i believe they said that spells out love in binary still actively gathering with about a minute left to go in this match triple zero five b the cockroach shoving of the robots around as it likes to do well their partner 93303x is working on goals in the corner we've got 43 seconds left in this match the robots vying for control of the center coming up on that 30-second warning now time for those teams to be careful around the platforms all right red alliance bringing one of those mobile dolls back over to their side pushing hard protecting keeping that keeping that blue mobile goal and now they are playing defense and waiting it out and that's the match great job teams let's take a look at qualifier 72 with a huge score from thicker society and infinite infinite improbability with 226 taking the autonomous point and a very very large lead there excellent work currently ranked one and three and we're moving on to qualcomm 74. here on the umaine field we do have qualification 74. we have confirmation to start so we'll begin our autonomous round in three two one go blue team races to the center gets an early grab red team the early bird gets the worm but the second mouse gets the cheese ron goes to blue team thanks to having one ring scored alright we'll begin our manual portion in three two one go [Music] red team making the most of their push spot red team conv con red team consists of wannabe haydens and the band of the hawk blue team struggling through the center consists of the long earth society and kate robotics h there's a holding call narrowly avoided by blue who whips across the stage i've never seen a robot that large move that quickly meanwhile the red team is also holding on to two per robot it makes for a very difficult battle for a pushbot who is currently holding on to zero platforms uh take that back they're marching up the platform attempting to perhaps park on it with a mobile goal i think this may be the first time we've seen this all day red team was attempting to get both robots on top of the platform blue team rushes in with red team distracted blue team seizes the opportunity bringing even more points onto their field blue team makes its second stack red team left with all but one goal post not stacked red team farming rings blue team going for a third stack with eight seconds on the clock red team pushes back what they can they are clear of the platform all right let's go back to round 76 i think we have some results i'm sorry qualification 73 goes to p12 cockroach with fryeburg and autobots of monmouth with 80 points in a moment we're going to have qualifier 75 which is going to bring us the trojans and the electric eagles on the red alliance and stark industries and infinite improbability on the blue alliance all the teams are already ready to go they're ready teams are ready all right we're gonna go autonomous in three two one go [Music] all right red alliance going to that autonomous wind point and one of the yellow mobiles and two of the mobile yellow goals three of the mobile yellow goals very close but still got them under control on the rim field we're looking for team lark that is nine four nine four eight please goes to red and we are going driver control in three two one go [Music] red starts off with an early advantage after picking up all three of the yellow mobile goals but there will be a lot of pushing and shoving in the middle of this match as we round out the end of the day we've got four very strong robots here and quite the pile up on the red alliance side up against that platform blue alliance working to change that they're just gonna take the whole robot with them with 49 seconds left to go they certainly could go either way as the two bots battle across the center line we're rapidly approaching the 30-second warning platforms are now dangerous territory for the opponent as the tug of war continues across the center line between 760 1764 b and 41 404 two strong heavy robots with a team assist from 88.3 something 80 30a looking to keep those goals on their side with three seconds left to go red alliance with a last minute quick grab over their line excellent work teams let's take a look at recorded scores qualification 74 goes to long earth society 56j from cape elizabeth and cape robotics h 56h 147 to 70. all right over on the rim field for qualification 76 team scorpion blue team will be fighting alone against the waynflete flyers and teeny mcteam face can i get a confirmation that all teams are ready we got thumbs up on the red side possibly looking for penguin thumbs up penguin thumbs up you're all set all right beginning our autonomous round in three two one go we are looking for team 56g for qualifier 77. red team makes off with one mobile goal posts blue team stacking some rings victory goes to red team for autonomous starting manual in three two one go blue team looking to play double duty here being under manned is not going to stop them uh stripping gears might however red team playing defensively they only have to hold on to two mobile goals each blue team appears to be having some sort of tactical difficulty struggling to lift a mobile goal post not much going on here on the rim field all eyes are on blue team as they figure out their robot red team is coolly waiting for the 30 second mark so that they can stack their points on the platform blue robot definitely has functionality perhaps this large goal post is just too much to lift they still have a chance if they go up their ramp red team seizes the opportunity of the 30-second mark begins loading their platform working in unison this is almost like synchronized swimming blue team abandons the yellow goal post only to have it snatched up by the red team seven seconds for blue team to get up that ramp red team just playing it safe [Music] well fought blue team well done red team now before we jump ahead let's take a step backwards take a look at qualification 75 we see that the trojans of saco and electric eagles of newcastle took the victory with both 108 points and the autonomous victory to put a cherry on top all right and as we approach qualifier 77 quick reminder of the teams with only 80 matches in the regular play than one replay we're going to have after that we are nearing alliance selection so as you return to the pit this would be a good time to start checking out that leaderboard paying attention to who you might want to join for an alliance and also a great time to remember to pick up a little bit of garbage and pick up some mess while you get go get going back there blue lines ready thumbs up red alliance ready excellent we are going to go autonomous in three two one go [Music] blue and red both going for a yellow oh [Music] driver control in three two one go qualifier 77 brings us on the red alliance big surf and p12 dummy from old orchard and fryeburg academy and on blue event horizon and infinite improbability from cape elizabeth and the yarmouth blue alliance looking to do some match loading of some rings and get them piled up on their alliance mobile goal while red focuses on just gathering mobile goals in the corner one red robot hung up on some purple rings probably hoping for a bailout while blue collects and collects 1764a holding control of that yellow mobile goal 56g cruising around and steals the bluegol with the rings from the red alliance red helping out their teammate trying to get them unstuck it's not happening yet meanwhile blue taking advantage of the empty space and very very quickly running those running those mobile goals back to its side with the 30 second warning approaching and there it is balances of a yellow mobile goal on its platform the fight remains for the control of the two red mobile goals as two triple zero five c works its way back to the platform to try to balance one off 65 665b stuck on rings there they go came unstuck with three seconds to go and they still have four rings it was a good effort all right excellent match let's take a look at the scores from qualification 76 with the winning eight flyers and timmy mcteen face winning with 146 to 44 over scorpion and lark with no show to qualify qualifier 76 in the books heading over to vrc mainfield over on the vrc main field we have qualifications 78 ready to roll the red team consists of derrick's protection and oh wait we have to do that blue team ninja turtles and infinite improbability robotics i'll just get a visual ready from every team we are good to go we need one hunter and we will be underway all right hunter we'll begin our autonomous driving round in three two one go [Music] some quick action there blue team makes off with the yellow goal post red team got halfway through a ring load i think so this round is going to go to boutique all right starting our manual driving portion in three two one go blue team shakes off its spoils continues towards the center do my eyes deceive me or do i see three blue license plates difficult to tell what's going on many many blue license plates but there is a massive scuffle going on across the center line the last remaining goal posts even though blue has coolly deposited two goal posts on the opposite side they're being ignored blue team plowing rings out of the way doing a community service blue team looking to fling that red goal post out of the way red team responds by carrying off a yellow goal post maybe looking for an early stack although it's pretty dangerous with blue right next to their platform with blue absinthe red proceeds to stack since they're close to the 30-second mark it's a pretty safe bet that it'll stay there unless they sabotage themselves i do see a ultrasonic sensor on there and that's probably why they're able to make such quick grabs in the autonomous round looks like we've got a goal post coming apart there but shouldn't affect the game play is it doesn't appear anyone's stacking rings right now 13 seconds left on the clock the goal posts do appear to have migrated to the blue side but are largely unprotected red team possibly making a last second stack we'll see and it's good excellent job everybody let's take a quick look at the scoreboard before we move on for qualification 77 we see that blue team wins with event horizon from cape elizabeth and infinite improbability from yarmouth they took both the autonomous victory and 118 points to the bank all right over on the rim field we've got qualification 79 we're going to be pitting the red alliance with p12 capybara and appendicitis against the blue alliance of flat our society and the fighting goals we are just waiting for the all-knowing all-powerful hunter he's the one waving emily from across the room all right we are ready to roll hunter is ready all right teams we're gonna begin autonomous in three two one go all right a few bots go out looking to grab early control of those yellow mobile goals one of them succeeds red alliance gets one over to their side and autonomous goes to red driver control in three two one go right flatter society trolls against coffee bar this matchup has been seen before 65 six div so a lot of sixes and fives 65 626 5a coming in low looking for some good grabs and we have some very aggressive play over by the uh blue platform that platform is also taking a beating with a minute 15 left this definitely could go either way while these bots drive and drive aggressively taking control of these platforms all right we got a tug of war going on one side all right we got a couple of robots having trouble separating we have 30 seconds left it's time to be careful red alliance going for some balancing we're trying to make a last-minute grab red defending their territory while blue grabs one of those seven seconds have to go 2142e with a last minute stack and balance all right let's take a look at some scores all right no score is ready but it looks like qualifier 80 is ready to go this is it the one you've all been waiting for qualification 80. do you want to say something gotcha all right this is the last qualifying round so on the red team we've got ohs robotics and wing hem wind and wingnuts on the blue team we have happy hands and robots we're gonna start our autonomous round in three two one go again the speed of such a massive robot will never cease to amaze me blue team does make it back with not one but two mobile platforms multiplying their score round goes to blue team manual driving around starting in three two one go [Music] red team looking to recover those points they seem to be concentrated in blue territory at the moment specifically attached to blues robots red team with a slow forklift easy does it they do get an early stack blue team slowly putting mobile goals on their platform while red team extracts them from behind for another slow but steady oh they almost had another slow but steady stack with 58 seconds on the clock blue team is not bothering to stack red team is actively distracting them with their platform in the background red team continues to attempt another stack hoping to not drop their yellow platform this is precarious if they let go now it may fall but we have passed the 30 second mark so teams are okay to go up the platform because they'll only be subject to self-sabotage blue team looks like they had a plan but resorted to just placing the tallest most awkward goal post on their balance so kudos for that eight seconds to go oh no blue team self-sabotage they did quickly recover red team with three three goal posts on the red side all right that is the end of qualifying rounds so let's take a look back oh we do also have a redo coming up next so let's take a look back qualification 78 we do see the ninja turtles from monmouth did win that would be a blue team win for the previous round qualification 79 it was a close round but it looks like the p-12 capibara of freiburg and appendicitis of monmouth took the cake with 86 points and the autonomous victory so we're going to be doing a replay of qualifications 63 here in a moment we have all four teams ready sorry we have all four teams here almost ready waiting on a couple license plates which we now have now hunter sorry could we snag you for one second we're having a link problem this seems like an excellent moment to put in a quick thank you for all of the parents who clearly had some some investment in this program as well and we do appreciate you all being here it's a very very cool event but we know it takes some work for all of you so big thank you to parents and people here cheering on it's an awesome awesome event to be a part of we're going to resolve a couple technical problems yeah there you go you can count for yourselves it's okay not really sure all right so for now we got a thumbs up from blue thumbs up from red bull teams all right we are going to go autonomous in three two one go these robots were so fast none of you noticed them go for the yellow mobile goals it was amazing all right i think we're good now we'll try this again with the magical three two one go there we go 64 76 2a oh almost grabbing that and autonomous goes to blue and we will have driver control in three two one all right this replay of match 63 is already starting off aggressive four capable bots looking to wrap up the qualifier portion of our day with a very exciting match 1810s grabbing control of two of the mobile goals the red alliance chipping away at the pile of available mobile goals blue alliance still hanging on to two in their corner with a minute 10 left still could go either way all right red is bringing more goals back over to their side blue already parked up on top of their platform and trying to grab that that extra yellow goal and with 40 seconds left in the match they've got a shot at it meanwhile the red alliance working on stacking working on balancing 30-second warning blue goes for a last-minute grab of its mobile goal while red prepares to defend wow ten seconds left [Music] all right excellent match good work teams after scoring head back to your pits we're going to be having alliance selection very soon thank you all so much for coming thank you to the volunteers to our field resetters who have been working tirelessly and we are very much looking forward to seeing how these teams pair themselves off for our final eliminations all right and we've got the results from match 63. there we go all right the red alliance takes it 120 to 106 in a close match so congrats to ohhs robotics and the windham wingnuts on that one we've got the rankings up on the screen right now so the students are all in there trying to figure out how they're going to coordinate themselves all right we need all teams all teams one representative with your robot here in the main auditorium right now all teams one team member representing with your robot right away all right again we're going to be looking for one team member for each robot and we do not have the printouts just yet but we are going to be starting with our number one seed over in this area and working our way across the stage to the right and then back across the front so hold tight if you're not sure where you're at but if you know where you are you can certainly get some arrangement based on the numbers on the board yeah all right we're going to have everybody stand against this side for a moment just stay right about where you're at sorry for any confusion we will make this all work all right once again this is this is a good time to thank our sponsors obviously robotics institute of maine here our large sponsors idex on semiconductor the manson foundation granger pratt and whitney texas instruments png and at t and then all of our local support the maine the main vex groups are an excellent excellent organization and jacob and ali and all the volunteers and all the people who come to these events make it so so much fun for the students and it's about to feel quite busy in here as we converge both of the tournaments middle school and high school into one room testing the limits of our logistical planning i've also received word that concessions have gone on sale if you're on a team please do not leave right now but concessions are on sale we still are going to be looking for one team member with a robot to line up for alliance selection you might find yourself taking advantage of these moments to confirm that you know the name and team number of the team that you are hoping to be in an alliance with all right jacob is coming around we are getting things organized up here now well hunter's distributing signs here you've all been through this probably a number of times but we'll just briefly go over the rules again so we're going to start and we're going to go right down the line we're going to ask each team who they would like to align with the person or representative that they ask has the option to accept or decline an alliance with a team if the if the person declines that means that they are no longer allowed to accept another team asking them to be on their team they can only choose another team to be on their teams to be very careful when declining looks like we're almost all set to go here seems if you hear your name if you hear your team called out for an alliance partnership if you would raise your hand it will make it a lot easier for us to find you to check on whether or not you accept the request [Music] [Music] all right we're all set to begin our alliance selection you can see on the board our alliances are listed according to their points so the people who have the highest points will get the privilege of choosing first once again once you say no you cannot say yes you have to select the team after that all right so long earth society who what is your choice um 4-3-9-3-s that'd be the penguins let's get it they accept right bring your bot over too excellent we'll be moving on to infinite improbability who is your selection 5156d 5156d [Applause] you're called raise your hand step forward we'll find you we accept excellent infinite improbability 4393x 4393x there they are here we accept all right wall e what is your selection 93303 z there there we accept all right we got some power combinations here today uh 2005 b 20 they there i accept all right event horizon uh wait i gotta pull up bracket oh we're the six lines right uh we'd like to pick uh 2142e 2142e oh i think the choice is pretty clear at this point and the answer is can we please have an answer we accept they accept [Applause] uh 4148 electric eagles are asking 4140 a oh they're there we accept all right robots how do you choose 56h 56h we accept appendicitis 1897a we accept excellent meme team um 242d 2142d all right infinite improbability uh 2005 c we accept the frying pans 1810w we accept ohs robotics 9494a we accept it's written on his hand i appreciate the preparation infinite improbability d uh two one four one i don't know i think it's the one their team yeah yeah that yeah york team five one five six c yeah can you read the number please 624762b we accept [Applause] ninja turtles uh 93303x we accept what the band of the hawk uh 5156 c there you go we accept awesome awesome job but let's let's not go yet can we hear a large round of applause for everybody past alliance number 16 that unfortunately is not going to be playing in the eliminations today it was an awesome job awesome congratulations thank you for coming out to the state championship [Applause] we will be promptly starting at three o'clock that is in seven minutes so we are going to post the schedule on all of the screens momentarily please pay attention to the streams so you know what match you are in we will also call over the loudspeaker what matches we're going to start first you can see the elimination bracket half of the elimination bracket up on the screens you can also go into vex via to see the match schedule we will be starting the first match of eliminations in seven minutes um high school teams if you look on the board you will see your schedule starting with a round of 16 1-1 working through the round of 16 8-1 if you're in the round of 16 1-1 1-2 or 1-3 please make your way to the queuing table now again if you're in round of 16 1-1 1-2 or 1-3 please make your way to the queuing table now all right teams if you're in the round of 16 1-1 1-2 or 1-3 please or sorry 1-1 or 1-2 please take the round to fields round 16 1-1 we need 56-j 4393-s 64762a 5156c to the rimfield as soon as possible thank you middle school teams we need team 93303r 56s 78 two 31b four two one a if you heard your team number called please go ahead and take the vrc main field again that's banks for three f3r 56s 7831b and one four two one a middle school only here i need teams for around 16 2-1 for the high school 64762f 56h 93303f and 1897a please take the umaine field that's the center field 64762f 56h 93303f in 1897a all right round one of the quarter finals consists of teams 56j 4393s 6476 and 5156c red team are you ready red team is ready blue team are you ready blue team's ready let's rumble three two one go very quick snatches by the red team blue team throwing those rings over the spoke red team unable to get rings onto their spokes however they are holding both mobile goals [Music] round goes to the red team beginning our manual portion in three two one go all right this is like a recurring dream here the pushback has nowhere to go because all of the mobile goals are locked we are looking for team 1897 a to join us for the round of 16 1897 a this is the little pushbot that could he's currently bullying the red robot trying to get them to drop their mobile goals i think i might have seen this episode before i'm not sure uh i'm gonna call it that they're probably to stack in the last 30 seconds meanwhile blue is going for an early stack but ride recognizes this and is actively sabotaging their efforts no one's there to say no all right blue team is calling for their pushbot to drive up they've got 40 seconds left for the red team to sabotage red team matches them both teams now have two platforms and a robot parked on top of the platform blue team is going for two robots two robots all they still have 18 seconds to correct this but they appear to be in a pileup red team is parked and sitting pretty waiting for the end of the round very close attempt by the blue team looks like this may be the end that is the end let's have a round of applause [Applause] excellent round between you two teams all right in a moment we're going to be moving over to the middle to the um pitting the red alliance of 56-h and 64-762-f against the blue 9-3-3-0-3-f and 1897-a all right are we ready on the red side thumbs up from red thumbs up from blue all right sorry hey red ready blue ready we're going autonomous in three two one go [Music] oh both sides go for a fight red takes it back as we wait out the clock autonomous goes to red all right we're starting driver control in three two one go all right the blue alliance is slowly gathering up the mobile goals red also doing its job red side trying to play it safe playing defense while blue attempts to gather with a minute seven left in the match there is a lot of strategy at play red alliance continuing to gather more of the mobile goals on their side blue coming back to try to steal some as well both sides being cautious as we approach the 30-second mark and there's the 30 second warning the teams are going to begin to start to stack and balance looks like 56 h is hung up on something there we go good partner work from 64 762 blue alliance continuing their work on their side while red attempts to steal a yellow mobile goal blue on the defense while blue begins to park with one second left excellent match let's get around applause for all four of those teams great great work [Applause] all right and we do have some results in round of 16 1-1 the winner goes to long-earth society and thick earth society with 181 to 181-69 win let's have a big round of applause for them and for the band of the hawk and stark industries all right we're over to vic maine for the middle school hello everybody i am m.c drew we have billy our wonderful head referee right there and we are coming from the middle school field where we have our wonderful middle school competitors are now joining us in the auditorium for quarterfinals 2-1 [Applause] in this first match let me introduce the red alliance first we have 93303r from monmouth they are working with the cape robotics team 56s on the blue alliance team we have 78 31 be a clipper boss team and they are working with two one four two one a from all saints robotics [Applause] let's check in with our team's red alliance are you ready for this quarterfinal match i see some thumbs up blue alliance also thumbs up referees are we ready everybody is ready for quarterfinal 2-1 let's start this match in three two one go 56s rushes forward they've grasped the mobile goal and they bring it back to the red home zone 214 218 wanted to grab that mobile goal but it is not there for them to take home with two seconds left this is where our autonomous period is going to end that alliance is drivers take the controls in three two one drive [Music] two one four two one a rush is four they want to bring that middle mobile goal home and they do it is safely in the blue alliance home zone not to be outdone 933-03-r they have a mobile goal from the middle of the field and they are bringing it back to the red alliance home zone 56 s safely has two mobile goals in their possession and they're going to hold on to them under heavy defense from 21421a 7831b had a nice steal of a red mobile goal and they brought it back to the blue alliance side of the field to deny the red alliance those crucial points nine three three zero three are they're going to grasp them yellow mob will go low and they're gonna try and put it up onto the red alliance bridge elevated mobile goals are worth significantly more points they're gone for a chop they release will it say it is balanced that is an elevated mobile goal for the red alliance but the blue alliance says no way and they knock that goal off of the bridge we have 45 seconds left in this quarter final match 56 s is trying to grab onto that knocked over mobile goal and bring it back to the red alliance side of the field they're also going to try and push a blue alliance but we'll go with it we are down to 30 seconds left in this match nine three three zero three are taking some heavy defense from two one four two one a red alliance has five mobile goals on their side of the field and they need to protect them for another 15 seconds 7831b is under some heavy defense while 21421a is trying to balance the blue alliance bridge they are so close and they have done it they have balanced the blue alliance bridge with two seconds left and that ends quarter final 2-1 an excellent performance by both the red and blue alliance [Applause] and now we will pass it over to the rim field to continue for round 16 4-1 18-10 smw please this is round 3-1 we have p-12 kopiba and p-12 cockroach versus the frying pans and the windham wing nuts all right we have some scores to announce real quick we've got the round of 16 two one team red is going to advance that's roberts and cape robotics h with a win of 106 to 60 over appendicitis and the wayne wayne fleet flyers let's have a big round of applause for them as well all right team names may have been inaccurate there so let's begin our round our autonomous round in three two one go [Music] all right blue team narrowly misses one goal post oh they almost had the other as well meaning this round is going to be a wash that's a tie all right manual driving mode starting in three two one go and they're off again blue team capitalizing on what they started red team hauling around one mobile goal post for safety each team carefully positioning their goal posts no one seems to be stopping red team from walking away with every single goal post on the field putting them on top of their robot blue team stepped in decided they didn't want red team to get back to red territory with those accidentally pushing yet another goal post onto their robot red team blue team doing their best to keep goal posts out of red territory meanwhile red and blue are scuffling over one lone goal post in the back every goal post counts here so they're trying to get each valuable point now that we're inside of 30 seconds teams are going to probably begin stacking their points since their platforms are safe from the competitors 19 seconds to go red team still struggling to position correctly they have that unique arm that comes down and grabs their platform right now they're struggling against a barrier that's all the time we have let's have a round of applause red team will be moving on we have scores from quarterfinal 2-1 the red alliance has taken the victory with 86 points to blue alliance 50 points congratulations to the red alliance on a fantastic performance all right in just a moment we're going to have round of 1641 at the main field in the middle everybody in the building should be able to hear me so if you are with the middle school competitors we need teams two one four two one e and two one four two one s to report for the red alliance for the blue alliance we need teams two one four two one h and seven 7831a please report to the vrc main field thank you very much all right round of 16 401 is going to hit fryeburg academy against wyndham with copy by a cockroach against the frying pans and the wing nuts guaranteed to be a good match all right are we ready on the red side ready on blue excellent we're going autonomous in three two one go [Music] all four bots go out all four bots come back and we have an autonomous tie we're going driver control in three two one go [Music] plenty this year [Applause] going for a power grab right in the middle all four pots taking what they can get red alliance breaking free a little bit getting one of the yellow mobile goals on their side while blue grabs one and goes straight for trying to stack it on their platform two triple zero five eight playing a little all right there is a lot going on here the cockroach comes across trying to take that yellow from the blue and two triple zero five a going through yet another kind of sideways stack on the platform with 40 seconds left in the match there's a lot going on here it's too close to call but there are a lot of mobile goals on the red side at the moment we're approaching the 30-second timer and there it is at this point these competitors need to be very careful some last minute grab for the corners red alliance playing strong defense trying to keep blue from taking any other mobile goals from them as the game ends [Music] take a quick yes we do round to 13 round to 16 3-1 the red alliance advances team 344 x wall-e and 9-2-3-0-3-z binary we've got to 23. so red will be advancing let's get a big round of applause for ohs robotics and mark who did a great job today and we are back to the vrc main field for the middle school quarterfinal 3-1 let's announce our red alliance first captain bi21421e we have phoenix out of all saints they are working with 21421s these cyber saints also out of all saints on the blue alliance we have more all saints teams the captain is 2 1 4 2 1 h and they are working with seven eight three one a the clipper bots now let's hear from both of our alliances red alliance are you lined up and ready for the smash i see thumbs up blue alliance can i also get some thumbs up is everybody ready everybody looks ready referees are we ready we are ready to start this match let's start the autonomous round in three two one go three teams are on the move rushing to get those mobile goals and put them back to their side of the field with five seconds left nobody is moving [Music] billy signals we have an autonomous tie drivers will take over in three two one go now everybody rushes forward the two all things teams are going to work they are trying to push those mobile goals back to the red side of the field two one four two one h has moved one mobile goal back to the blue alliance home zone two one four two one s has also moved a mobile goal back to the red alliance home zone two one four two one s is trying to steal one of the blue alliance mobile goals and bring it back to red to deny the blue alliance those crucial points two one four two one e the reliance partner is also looking to steal a mobile roll from the red alliance side it is now have been delivered 7831a is trying to find a mobile goal to grab and bring back to their side of the field 21421e is now trying to steal the other blue mobile gold if they do so they will leave blue with a singular mobile goal in their possession we have 45 seconds left in this match and they have done that both blue mobile dolls are on the red side of the field two one four two one s is moving immobile back to red red now has six mobile goals on their side of the field blue only has one with 30 seconds left to play in this match two one four two one h is looking to steal one of those mobile goals but they are coming under heavy defense from both all saints robotics teams on the red alliance with 15 seconds left we are making the last second scramble to end this match we are down to 10 seconds as billy starts to count a pinning call five four we got some victory spins from the front alliance one second zero that ends the match that's the celebration from our red alliance as they put in an excellent driving performance amazing job by both of our competitors all right our next round will be over on the rim field this is round 16 4-1 5-1 all right so we got round of 16-4-1 scores and this one the blue alliance of the frying pans and the wind and wing nuts one with a 103 to 83 match so let's hear it for them p12 copy bottle and p12 cockroach heading back to fryeburg did a great job as well so blue advances all right on to round 5-1 on the red team we have infinite improbability of yarmouth and happy hands of york on the blue team the ninja turtles of monmouth and the autobots also of monmouth [Applause] all right do i have positive confirmation that all teams are ready they are so we're going to begin our autonomous driving portion in three two one go [Music] red team with an early snatch but again blue team comes from behind and takes their own gold host this may end in a tie it is a tie all right manual driving round in three two one go [Music] massive chaos ensuing in the center as teams struggled for the only three yellow goalposts they find their way into blue territory there is still a goal post in the red territory both teams see this and are actively trying to grab it oh no red team is tipping over they've rided themselves red team going for an early stack looks like blue team's blue plate fell off so now it looks like we have four red contestants red team plowing it out of the way hoping to grab more out of blue territory and bring it back to their side blue team sabotaging red's balance beam blue team looking to capitalize on this calamity perhaps grabbing points out of red territory no blue is managing its own territory trying to stack points there's the 30-second mark most points are still on red side but red is trying to continue adding to its point total dragging the tallest stand out of blue land red team attempting to write their platform with only 14 seconds left blue team's platform just came unbalanced will they have time five seconds left red team writes their balance blue team narrowly misses red team self sabotages this may not be balanced anymore folks all right we'll be moving on to round 6.1 and we'll see if we have any results before that we do have scores we have scores for the vrc main field the red alliance has claimed victory with a score of 113 points to blue alliance's 23 points congrats to the red alliance on a dominating victory and a big round of applause for our wonderful competitors on the blue alliance two one four two one h the raptors and 78 31a the clipper bots all right in the middle on the union field we've got the round of 16 6 1 with the red alliance of 80 30 a and 41 404 a against 344 344r and 2142d oh scary here all right we're looking to start round to 16 6-1 red alliance is ready hello alliance ready looking for a thumbs up ready all right we're going to begin autonomous in three two one go 41 04 making a number of moves autonomous goes to red and we are going driver control in three two one go all right red is starting off slow and steady getting themselves set up under control of a number of those mobile goals blue going a little bit faster 344 working alone at the moment it looks like we're having some technical issues on one of the bots but i saw some movement there we go all right all four bots are moving but the red alliance is going for an early early balance and succeed at an early balance holding four mobile goals blue going on the offensive trying to tip them manages to disengage one of the red mobile goals from that platform and is trying to tip them down meanwhile the other two bots are simply pushing each other around trying to keep control red alliance still hanging out up top with 42 seconds left in this match they are waiting out with a very strong strong score up top like that there's a 30-second warning blue's trying to work its way up its own platform but the pile of mobile goals is making that tricky red waiting out their advantage while blue looks to secure the points it can get in the last seven seconds of the match read carefully watching on defense [Music] [Applause] we do have some scores in the round of 16 5 1 red infinite improbability and happy hands advances with a lead of 103 to 43 over ninja turtles and autobots let's get a big round of applause for monmouth ninja turtles autobots who are as day ends here and for infinite probability and happy hands and we're going to send it back to the vrc main field where we're going to have quarter final 4-1 for our middle school competitors before we start this match a small announcement to make after we play this quarter final match we are going to wait for the semi-finals of the middle schoolers so that the high schoolers and the middle schoolers will place semi-finals at the same time so we will have a small break from the middle school matches until we catch up with the high school matches with that in mind let's announce the competitors for match 4-1 of quarter-finals on the red alliance they are captained by team 93303t mcmeadow they are partners with 7-8-3-1 f clipper bots and the omni blue alliance they're up against a pair of clipper bots 78 31e and 78 31c let's check in with our teams real quick red alliance are you ready lots of thumbs up lots of hype blue alliance are you ready also lots of thumbs up lots of hype referees are we ready for this match i see thumbs up everyone's ready let's start the autonomous round in three two one go we've got a race on the far side of the field nobody manages to latch onto a mobile goal with nine seconds left the second autonomous will end with no extra scoring billy signals we have a tie in autonomous drivers will take control in three two one go everybody races back towards the middle of the field and the blue alliance goes for a hook and misses red alliance has one of the mobile dolls 93303t is looking to grasp onto that smaller yellow mobile goal they're likely going to want to score it onto the red bridge 7831e wants that really tall middle mobile goal but they knock it over red is in possession of two of the yellow mobile goals blue is in possession of one 78 31 f has two mobile goals in their possession one is up in the air one is stuck in the corner blue alliance cannot access either of those two goals this seems to be their strategy because i see them already celebrating they each have two mobile goals and blue is unable to access either of them with one minute left in the match but blue is not to be deterred 78 31e is going to fight for the rest of this match to try and steal one of those goals away from 78.31 7831c is working on the blue bridge they are looking to get one of those mobile goals and maybe their robot onto that bridge they will greatly increase their points scored if they are able to get the mobile goal and the robot onto their bridge seven eight fold right now for 30 seconds left has left their corner and they're looking to drop a yellow mobile onto the bridge and they are successful they now have one elevator mobile goal are they gonna go for two elevator mobile goals i see they are grabbing one of the red mobile goals they have it in their grasp 93303t is also going to the redbridge to drop off a mobile goal and they are successful with six seconds left is this our match is going to end three two one and the match is over an excellent performance by both alliances blue took it back near the end we'll have to wait to see our scores looking back on round 6-1 we see that the electric eagles of newcastle and the trojans of saco advance with 176 points to 60. let's give a round of applause for the meme team of scarborough and scorpion of bangor who will not be moving on [Applause] all right can we get a thumbs up from each team that are ready we are a ghost so we're gonna begin our autonomous driving round in three two one go some very interesting strategies by robots here red team does have a yellow goal post which i think is going to count for something victory goes to red team all right beginning our manual driving portion in three two one go there's a massive scuffle going on in the center we see team donut earth is managing to hold on to one inside its massive donuts while the red team tiles two above it donut has picked up a second red team madly scooping up rings getting extra points one at a time donut earth society driving up their ramp this could take a while but once they get up there they will have three mobile goals plus a robot which will multiply their score by two there they go up the ramp blue team looking to play defensively red team looking to sabotage oh no red team has knocked the largest mobile goal out of the ring blue team is still on the platform though blue team flinging mobile goals across the stage trying to keep them in blue territory red team scooping them back you pass the 30-second mark put it back in all right the tallest mobile goal is back in game red team attempting to stack they get one mobile goal up red team has touched the blue platform blue team shooing red out of their territory five seconds to go this is a close match one last attempt at blue to fling and the round is over we will have results from round 6-1 in just a moment well we can see the results from the middle school 4-1 mcmetal of monmouth and the clipper bots of yarmouth are advancing with 103 points have a round for both teams of clip robots from yarmouth all right in the middle on the main field we're going to have the round of 1681 coming up soon with the red alliance of 56 g and 2142 e against the blue alliance of 1764 b and 2 005 c we're just waiting on some referees but it's looking like the teams are ready to go all right here comes hunter all right red alliance are you ready red alliance ready blue alliance ready excellent we're gonna go autonomous in three two [Music] also grabs one lots of movement on the field for that autonomous period the autonomous goes to the red alliance we're going to go driver control in three two one go [Music] we got flat earth society and 56 cape robotics up against p12 robotics from fryeburg academy and infinite improbability a lot of complex pots doing their job here 1764 b slowly but surely pulling a mobile goal away from the opponent to triple zero five seat dummy doing its best to keep things under control in its corner while the red alliance starts loading up on on rings hoping to add a little extra to their end of the game score we've got about a minute left in this match red alliance hanging on to a number of the mobile goals but blue's certainly not stopping their fight who's working on doing one balance mobile mobile goal on top of that platform almost get it but not quite meanwhile a lot of the action is focused around the red platform with the 30 second warning coming up in two one there we are from here on out the teams must remain careful and this tug of war is going to make it harder and harder for them that did not sound good have some very physical gameplay happening here with the blue alliance pulling hard red alliance doing our best to free up their partner while 2 005 c works on stacking another mobile goal that falls apart with two seconds left in the game [Music] very very aggressive match good work teams good work teams all right we do have some results as well from the round of 1671 will be advancing team 1764 d infinite improbability and 64 762b donut earth society with a win of 160 to 104. let's have a big round of applause for them and for the red alliance whose game ends here today our next contest will take place on the rim field here on the right side this will be quarterfinals 1-1 red team consists of the long earth society from cape elizabeth thick earth society from limestone blue team consists of the robots of bangor and cape robotics h of cape elizabeth the course has been set are all contestants ready can i get a thumbs up i'm seeing lots of thumbs up that's a good sign so we'll begin our autonomous round in three two one one moment [Music] red team with a lightning fast snatch grabs two goal posts right out of the center lucci makes it back with one will not be enough two seconds on the clock red team victory let's start our manual driving portion in three two one go blue team springs into action chasing after the red team red team holding on to four goal posts at once blue team also defending his last two goal posts i'm sorry they have three on their side blue team and red team get in a tug of war blue team almost tips over but comes back red team holding on to the mobile goal post over the edge shirley blue team can't take that red team playing defense until that 32nd mark when they can stack their goods with no repercussions meanwhile in the background blue team is reorganizing their mobile goal posts trying to make for the most efficient loading once that 30 second mark hits again teams can load before the 30 seconds but it's more advantageous to wait so nobody can knock them off all right blue team gets a robot and a mobile goal post stacked blue team also is struggling to write their tip ooh red team snags mobile goal post out of blue territory while they're working together blue team is off the balance red team manages to get two goal posts and a robot parked on top of their platform blue team back with their robot and possibly two goal posts on top of their platform nine seconds to go there they go both platforms are balanced nobody's struggling for the extra points ron will go to red [Music] yeah let's hear it for these contestants everyone has played a great game today all right up on the screen we have the results of 8-1 event horizon from cape elizabeth and flat earth society of bangor have advanced with 117 points let's have a round for infinite improbability of yarmouth and p12 dumb e from fryeburg as they exit the stadium all right coming up on the main field in the center we've got quarterfinals 21 with 38 44x and 933.03 z up against 1810s and 1810w from windham all right as the teams make last connections wall-e and the binary team against the flying pans and the windham wing nuts we've seen a lot from these four bots today and the teams are ready so we are going autonomous in three two one go [Music] all right we've got some motion in all four locations but one of the two of the global goals move it to their respective sides and we have an autonomous tie all right we are going driver control in three two one go all right blue gets right to work starting to set up some protected goals in their corners red team's also moving fast to try to grab some and keep them under control neither team focusing much on the platforms early in the match waiting out for the last 30 seconds just do some stacking red alliance has picked up a couple of mobile goals and i have them pretty secure at the moment and the 344x attempting to grab more as well we got a ton of more going for that last one which goes to red who brings it back to their side sticking it into the corner red audience clubs a third mobile goal on one bot under their control while the other robots fight it out with 46 45 seconds left to go all the robots are gonna have to be careful with where they keep their mobile goals all right we've got the 30 second timer coming now at this point red alliance is trying to drive up and over they've got a precarious one hanging over the outside edge working on the bounds while blue works together excellent parking job by 93 303 z with seven seconds left to go lower lions is looking to stack what they can on their platforms and take that yellow but that parking job is tough to beat [Applause] all right excellent match we've got some results from quarterfinals 1-1 the red alliance of longer society and thick earth society will be advancing with a win of 207 to 110 against roberts and cape robotics h from bangor and cape elizabeth let's have a round of applause for the end of their day today matches continue to get more and more exciting back on the irin field quarterfinals 3-1 is about to begin on the red team we have improv infinite improbability of yarmouth and happy hands of york on the blue team electric eagles of newcastle and the trojans of saco all right looking for visual confirmation from our contestants that they are ready if you are ready put a thumb up okay red team is all set blue team is ready to go alrighty we're going to begin our autonomous driving round starting in three two one go [Music] blue team gulps up a yellow goal post goes back for a second denies red three seconds to go blue team ends the autonomous round with three mobile goals on one robot ron goes to blue team beginning our manual driving mode in three two one go red's going to have a hard time because all blue has to do is play defense now it used the autonomous period to stack all the mobile goals on one robot red's trying desperately to get mobile goals off of the blue team's robot unsuccessfully blue team playing defensively the other robot trying to push red back out of their territory as of now red has fewer points on their side if they stack creatively they could reverse the tide red team doing their best to run interference blue team blocking them using teamwork to keep red occupied meanwhile red attempts to fish out a yellow goalpost from underneath their platform if it remains under there they will not be able to stack as the platform will be supported red team unsuccessful in trying to free mobile goal posts from the blue robot they now must return to their own course to try and get as many points on their balance as possible red team appearing to make things worse but there is a nice handhold to grab that platform out from underneath blue team inching up the platform they could balance four mobile goals at once and a robot they've done it five seconds to go red team with an unsuccessful stack on their platform last ditch ever [Music] the signs are pointing to blue but we'll let hunter decide it's a close call our referees are making sure that the platform is truly unsupported before we go on we'll make sure to review the score from quarterfinals 2-1 we see that wally of scarborough and the binary ones from monmouth have taken the victory they're moving on with 103 points let's have a hand for the frying pans of windham and wind and wingnuts of windham as they exit our competition we are looking for team 1764 d 6476 to be 56 g on the u main field in the middle 56 g 1764 d and 6 4 7 6 2 b all right we got two of them we got three and it looks like we're gonna have all four for quarterfinals 401 we're going to have the red alliance of infinite improbability from yarmouth and donut earth society from bangor and on the blue alliance we're going to have 56g event horizon and 2142 e the flat earth society foreign foreign all right all right blue is ready red is ready excellent we are gonna go for autonomous in three two one go all right blue alliance takes off fast grabbing two of the yellow mobile goals keeping them strongly under their control all right we need to reset the field we set the field for autonomous we had a non plugged in foreign all right we have to do a little bit of resetting there the quarter finals 401 but the red alliance is ready blue alliance ready all right we're going autonomous in three two one go [Music] and the blue alliance with a clean repeat of their previous autonomous it's five seconds to wait and autonomous goes to blue we're going driver control in three two one go [Music] [Applause] and the red alliance makes quick business of tossing one of those tossing the large yellow mobile goal onto their bot and picking up one of the reds 56 g grabbing a yellow mobile goal to bring it back to the corner and loading up on some rings red alliance trying to figure out a way to get some get their hands on some of those mobile goals that the blue alliance is hanging on to with a minute left in the match there's still time for them to pull it off meanwhile 64762b is over in the corner with a couple mobile goals under their control fighting a bit with their own platform all right we got 36 seconds left in this match a lot of defense being played waiting out the last 30 seconds blue begins to stack on their platforms trying to balance things out blue with another balance attempt while red goes in for the park it's a tough climb carrying that much with two seconds left [Music] very very strong match [Applause] yeah let's get a round of applause for that there was a lot going on in that match let's let the left stand a job now [Applause] as we proceed and i believe we now have middle school back in the mix correct i believe we do we've got some stories from quarterfinals 3-1 the blue alliance advancing the electric eagles and the trojans from newcastle and saco taking the wind with an 86 to 60 win over infinite and probability and happy hands congratulations to all those teams excellent work we are now into the semi-finals of the vax maine state championship and we are back on the brc field for semifinals 1-1 of the middle school tournament just so everybody knows our number one seated alliance in red got a buy through the quarterfinals so this is their first appearance on the vrc main field they are captained by team 56 our cape robotics are they are working with 78 31 diva clipper bots [Applause] their opposition on the blue alliance is 93 303 r [Applause] and working with them is 56 s let's check in with both of our alliances red alliance are you ready for this first match lots of thumbs up on the red alliance blue alliance are you ready to give them a tough time they say yes they are referees are we ready to watch we are everybody is ready for semifinal match 1-1 we will start the autonomous round in three two one go the robots unfold and race forward 56 s on the blue alliance has stolen a goal back to the blue alliance side of the field but 56r responds with a mobile goal of their own in the red home zone that ends our autonomous period and we have a tie drivers take control in three two one go everybody races for that last mobile goal in the middle of the field and red alliance takes it back to their home zone 56s is looking to take control of their mobile goals in their home zone while they weren't looking 56r has grabbed a blue mobile goal and has deposited it back in the red home zone denying the blue alliance those crucial points 93 303r is slowly encroaching on the red home zone because they want to take back some of those mobile goals 56 r has loaded the blue mobile goal into their robot permanently there is no way to get that back out 56r has two mobile goals in their possession and they are blocking access to a third red mobile goal 56s has a mobile ball in their possession they likely want to try and get it onto their bridge to get the elevated mobile goal points but 7831g they really want that mobile goal so they are fighting with 56s to try and get it back to the red alliance side of the field with 40 seconds left in our match 56r is looking to drive onto the red bridge to get these balance points their alliance partner 7831d is looking to move a mobile goal to make sure it does not contact the bridge the 25 seconds left they have plenty of time to balance out the red bridge 7831d is harassing 56s trying to make sure they do not score any more points with eight seconds left in this match things are winding down 56 r is stuck on the bridge 9303r is stuck on some rings and that will end our match [Applause] so it sounds like obviously you won so it's not results from the quarterfinals 4-1 are in looks like event horizon of cape elizabeth and the flat earth society of bangor advanced with 127 points over 60. let's have a hand for infinite improbability of yarmouth and donut earth society bangor as they exit the competition our next semi-final round will take place on the rim field we have on the red team long earth society of cape elizabeth maine the thick earth society of limestone on the blue team wall e of scarborough and the binary w from monmouth is everybody ready to rumble i'm seeing thumbs up all right hunter let's start our autonomous round in three two one go [Music] red team lightning fast snatches once again blue team narrowly misses the mobile goal post in the center two seconds on the clock looks like it goes to red all right starting our manual driving portion in three two one go [Music] all right things are collapsing into red territory both teams struggle for the points that red gained in the autonomous period red team manages to hold on to both goal posts on both robots blue teams sabotaging red's balance but there's nothing there heads up red is swinging wildly around with their cargo i see a blue license plate lying on the field i see the bottom of a goal post lying on the field things are getting crazy around here this is no tame battle one minute to go all teams are still carrying approximately two goal posts there's still one blue one left on the blue side red team is attempting to scoop the rings for extra points blue team manages an early toss of a goal post on the balance looks like red's not going to challenge that before time runs out red team is going for their own stack two at once this is secret stacking folks no wait they're driving their robot and two goalposts on top of the platform it stays blue team has stacks two goal posts already red teams going for a third plus a robot this could get tricky there's not much room left on that platform 10 seconds to go they managed red team blue team dumps its cargo off the field oh and they upset their balance very close game by all of us have a hand excellent competition [Applause] before we move on we'll review the score from the last round we have scores on the board for semifinal 1-1 the red alliance takes the victory with a score of 83 points to blue alliance 43 points a big congratulations to the red alliance on their win and congratulations to the blue alliance of 93 303 r baconators and 56 s south district system on an excellent performance of their own [Music] now looking for 2142e let's check in with our competitors for semifinal 2-1 on the vrc main field on the red alliance we have 2 1 4 2 1 e that is team phoenix out of all saints the reliance partner is making some quick last minute changes to their robot that is 21421s they are the cyber saints also out of all saints on the blue alliance their competitors for this match are 93 303 t which is team mcmetal out of monmouth they are working with 78 31 f e clipper [Applause] it looks like our red alliance is still working on those last-minute adjustments for this intense semi-final match so let's check in with our blue alliance real quick blue alliance are you ready for this match you've got a strategy down you're ready for autonomous you're ready to drive

if any of these mobile goals end up back in the home so if they do not billy signals we have a tie out of the autonomous round drivers will take the controls in three two one go [Music] twenty one four two one erases to the middle of the field to try and deny the blue alliance those goals they instantly bring a blue mobile back to the red alliance side of the field two one four two one s gets pushed and a mobile goal comes with them back to the red alliance side of the field 93 303 t from monmouth is trying to bring that yellow mobile goal back to the blue alliance side of the field but they are being impeded by the all saints robotics team who has quite the powerful drivetrain and says no way we have quite quite the rush going in the middle of the field our referees are currently talking to figure out what to do about that goal but in the meantime the blue alliance is looking to grab one of those blue goals and we will end this match those who are watching closely if you were watching the monmouth team was carrying this goal and unfortunately this popped off they need this on there to carry it around so it is match affecting so we will be replaying semi-final two so teams please grab your robots and scoot them back and get them ready for a replay of this match in the meantime we are going to toss it over to the other field for semifinal matches all right we are on the center field here for semifinals 2-1 with longer society and thicker society nope sorry i'm reading i am reading results from semifinals 101 where the red alliance of longer society and thicker society took the win for 212 to 40 against wall-e and the binary team from monmouth excellent work red will be advancing coming up in a moment we've got the red alliance of 80 30 a with 41 404 a and 56 g and 2142 e battling it out for semifinals 2-1 is our red alliance ready is our blue alliance ready you guys ready yep all right all right we're going autonomous in three two one go [Music] everybody takes off takes control of two of the mobile goals that alliance grabs one as well all right and blue takes autonomous we are going driver control in three two one [Music] all right the blue alliance is trying to repeat their previous performance taking control of those mobile goals and hanging on to them for as long as they can loading up some rings while they're at it but 41 404a can hold quite a few and is hoping to take one right away from him all the action over here on the blue side as these robots attempt to take the mobile goals from each other or just drag them straight across the field with them with a minute ten left hard to say what's going on but the red alliance is not giving up on trying to get control of more of those mobile goals blue alliance hoping to play defense for a little bit scraping up some wings of security but now finding themselves pinned all right this one is close to call still with fair very powerful bots keeping control of the mobile goals there's one still up for grabs as we approach the 30 second timer we're at 30 seconds and the red alliance has done an excellent job of taking control of a number of the mobiles and park balanced on the red platform [Applause] we are still working their way up to the platform and keeping some rings in theirs [Music] an excellent match all around from these four teams [Applause] oh we are back in business on the vrc main field for the middle school tournament this is a replay of semifinals 2-1 let me reintroduce these teams really quick we have the red alliance captained by two one four two one e phoenix and their alliance partner is two one four two one s cyber saints on the blue lines they're competitors for this match their captain is nine three three oh three team mick metal out of monmouth and they're working with 78 31 at the quipper bots out of yarmouth let's check in with our teams real quick blue alliance are you ready for this match i see some thumbs up everybody ready on the blue everybody ready on blue yes are you ready amazing let's get this match right this time let's start autonomous in three two one go once again although almost race towards the middle of the field this time 93 303t brings a mobile goal back to the blue line side of the field unfortunately someone from the red line pushes a goal into the red alliance home zone red alliance is the

four two one e is pushing around one goal right now trying to get it out of the blue alliance home zone and into red alliance's home zone 93303t gets a blue gold elevated onto their bridge the austin's robotics teams are in quite the pushing battle with 78 31 f who does not want to let any of their goals get stolen 70 31 f also delivers a goal to the blue alliance which they now have two elevated mobile goals 93 303t and 21421er in quite the pushing match near the red alliance bridge with 37 seconds left in this match 7831f are going to put another mobile goal onto the blue alliance

right teams we need teams for finals we're going to play our high school finals on the you main field right here if you can't see me i'm waving at you so we need team 56j 4393s 8030a and 4140a if you are in the finals match which i hope you know if you're in the finals match please put your robots on this field remember the red robots do have the option to place last quick announcement for the teams the engineering notebooks are in the pits now the engineering notebooks are in the pits our scores for semi-final 2-1 on the vrc main field are posted in the blue alliance the underdogs have taken the victory with a 150 point score red alliance put up a very respectable 86 points but congratulations to the victors who are moving on to the finals the blue alliance and a big hand to the number two alliance all right we're going to be dual announcing this one i've got the blue alliance and i've got the red alliance and we want to get some noise going before we start this let's hear it [Applause] there we go all right it really does make it that much more fun when it's noisy and crazy so let's make sure we keep that going all these teams have done such an amazing job today it all comes down to this match on the red team we have the thick earth society and the long earth society [Music] [Applause] all right and a reminder that all world qualifying matches which this is our best of three okay excellent there's a lot of energy on this field there's a lot of strategizing all right here comes the rock team earth society are you ready [Music] we're going to begin our autonomous driving portion in three two one go red team races to the center smashing yellow goalposts though instead [Applause] points do go to red for that round we'll begin our manual driving portion in three two one go all right here we go 41-4048 looking to gather as many of those mobile dolls as they can tossing them right into the middle red team puking rings onto the gold coast they're holding on to [Music] trying to take that yellow mobile goal from 56j 56j hoisting that goal up in the air keep playing keep away [Applause] red team attempting the same strategy that they've used to win all day today but being pushed around the field by blue 414 likes to gather those mobile goals they are pretty safe once they're in there looking to rip red right out of reds this is quite the match going on over on the north side of the field we have less than a minute red team still has not let go of their four mobile goals and continue to scoop rings on top of them hot on their tails with 37 seconds left to go there's a difference of one mobile goal in this battle it could go either way and there's the 30-second warning red team driving up the ramp red team balances [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] this is a feat of unprecedented proportion this has not happened all day [Music] oh my god by both teams amazing round [Applause] let's hear it for our contestants all right that was an excellent excellent match amazing job by the earth society and the blue from alliance map all right so we do have scores for the finals oh are they up already all right we've got 56j and 43-93 society of honor society 180-61 absolutely amazing job by all four of those teams and that was an exciting match to watch we will be moving on to the middle school finals now back on the vrc main field fourth finals match one of the middle school tournament we have our number one alliance in red we have our number three alliance in blue this is also a best two out of three so we get double the action let's introduce the teams on the red alliance the captain is 56 our cape robotics are [Applause] they are working with 78 31d the clipper bots [Applause] and then we have the blue alliance captained by 93303t nick metal they are working with 78 31 f clipper bots let's get ready for this match red alliance are you ready for finals match number one show me some energy okay blue alliance are you ready for this match show me some energy let's go all right are we ready for finals match one we are autonomous we'll start in three two one go everybody races off the building has latched on but they missed red alliance just knocks their goal off neither alliance successfully brings a goal back to their home zone billy signals that we have a tie during the autonomous period drivers are you ready take the controls in three two one drive and away they go 7831d is looking to grab onto that short yellow middle goal and bring it back to the red alliance side 93 303t has brought one of the mobiles back to the blue alliance side the clipper box teams are in quite the battle over the short yellow mobile goal the f team pulls away and goes for the very tall mobile goal in the middle of the field they're looking to bring it back to the blue alliance side of the field 78 31 d is left allowed so they're gonna steal a blue alliance goal and bring them back to the red alliance side of the field 93 303t places a blue goal onto the blue bridge for the elevated mobile goal points and red alliance says no way and they tip the bridge nullifying those points all drive teams are working very hard to control their robots and steal as many of these mobile goals and put them on their side of the field with 40 seconds left i currently see five mobile goals on the red alliance side of the field blue alliance has three two marvel goals in their possession with 30 seconds left all four robots are hung up in the middle of the field trying to make any last second pushes to bring the mobile goals to their half of the field blue alliance successfully brings a blue mobile doll back red alliance is trying to grab one of those yellow mobile goals they look like they want to head towards the bridge with only 10 seconds left in this match are they gonna be able to balance the bridge with seven seconds so they have done it with four seconds off in the match and that ends finals match number one but an incredible end to our first finals match amazing driving by both alliances and now we will wait for our head referees to tabulate the scores and put them on the board for us we have scores for finals match number one on the board the red alliance with a commanding 173 point score blue alliance puts up a respectable 63 points we will see in finals number two if the blue alliance can take it to a tiebreaker or if red will run home with the victory we will throw it back over to the high school field for their finals match number two we've returned to the u-maine field for potentially the last game of the high school season facing off for the best two out of three we have the thick flat earth society against the trojans and the electric eagles remember this is the best of three so this is a very very important match if the thick flat earth society takes the game they are the winners but if the electric eagles and trojans take this game there will be another tiebreaker we're just awaiting some last minute preparations gotta make sure these spots are top notch these battles have been getting closer and closer all day and now you have the premier battle of the day and after the end of that first finals match we are expecting great great things from all four of these teams we want to keep the tension just as high as it was before and you can all help by making some noise for these guys there you go an absolutely astounding amount of work has gotten those four teams to this point we're all waiting with baited breath to see has the strategy changed will they try something new who will prevail will they or won't they are they thumbs up do we have a thumbs up on the blue lions excellent looks like we're all set hunter we're going to begin our autonomous driving mode starting in three two one go [Music] red team with the early snatch red team holds back two mobile goals spits up rings that do not make it in the bucket that's time victory to the red team in autonomous mode all right and we're going driving in three two one go all right here we go the blue alliance is off red team starts with their advantage gained in the autonomous round all they have to do is hold on to these mobile goal posts blue team looking to interfere extra early this time they know the writing is on the wall otherwise i'm guessing that blue team is looking to repeat that balancing act at the end with a little bit more balance in the middle blue team's trying something new trying to rip the goalposts out of red's hands using leverage this time blue is not going to give up on trying to get those those goals from 56j over in the north corner there's a whole minute left this is at this point it's a battle of grip strength and cunning s getting hung up hopefully they get freed up red team attempted team here we go after safety [Music] we've lost a glass cover nearing that 35 30 second mark and there's the 30 second warning regime balances their bot this is going to get interesting there 10 seconds left [Applause] this [Applause] act i is it with three seconds to go an astounding parking job these four teams are here to put on a show for you all excellent work all around all right we are waiting and having the score counted up what is the result gonna be red came into this match ahead in this best of three will they hold on to the lead and is this over or did blue pull one out and will we be continuing for one more match regardless of the result i think we can all agree that that was extremely entertaining to watch that's some exciting stuff happening there our referees are targeting results communicating with the teams and as soon as we can we will have information for you all right i believe we have word that the scores aren't ready will red be done with this or is blue continuing is there another match oh [Applause] blue alliance with a 180 to 167 taking us into a final final match we're gonna throw it over to drew in middle school and we'll be back for the middle field scene after an incredible victory by the blue alliance on the high school field i'm sure the participants on the rc main field the blue alliance they would also love to replicate that and have a comeback match of their own looks like we are doing some last minute robot checks before we start final smash 2 on the vrc main field let's reintroduce these teams in finals match two because they deserve the hype i'm the red alliance they're captain 56 are capable robotics are they're working with 78 31d the clipper bots [Applause] and the blue alliance looking to be the comeback kings we've got 93 303 what is their letter t it's mcmetal out of monmouth and they're working with 78 31 f clipper bots it looks to me like all of our robots are set on this field for finals match number two red alliance deep breath in deep breath out are you ready for finals match two blue alliance a deep breath in a deep breath out no stress are you ready for finals match number two good energy let's start the autonomous round in three two one go all the robots race off 56 r looks to have a ball in their possession and they do 56 are flips a goal into their robot and brings it back to the red alliance home zone without any more movement in autonomous red is the autonomous victor drivers take the controls in three two one drive [Music] seven eight thirty one d on the red alliance is fast out of the gate they are going for that other short yellow mobile goal in the middle of the field and they bring it back to the red alliance home zone the blue alliance is hunting for mobile goals of their own to grab 7831d is fighting with a really tall mobile goal in the middle of the field are they gonna be able to write themselves they do and they tip it towards their home zone 56r has two mobile goals in their possession and they drop one of them they're gonna have to go get that back before it is stolen by the blue alliance and they do bring it back but they've also got 93303t is hung up and trying to steal it from them 7831f is protecting one of their blue mobile goals on the blue home zone we are less than one minute left in finals match number two 56r is lining up on the bridge but 93 303 t sees an opportunity and steals a mobile goal from the red home zone their red alliance team member is trying to defend and hold that goal in the red alliance home zone and it falls out of the blue alliance robot which of these two teams is going to be able to bring it home with 30 seconds left in this match 56 has started to drive the bridge again of time left in the match what can the blue alliance do to respond to this massive score by the red alliance they have 15 seconds 78 31 f is looking to blitz a blue gold onto the blue bridge can they do it with only nine seconds left in the match 7831d watches in anticipation and with one second left that is the end of finals match number two on the brc main field [Applause] we are going to calculate our scores and then get them posed to the board we will see does blue force a third match or does red take home the victory verbally read them to them do not show them verbally read them so it looks like our refs have confirmed the score we are waiting for final confirmation all right everybody the scores are coming can i get some noise before we get these scores on the board [Applause] all right let's get them posted let's see those scores for finals number two and the one alliance is your victor with 176 points they take a commanding victory big congratulations to your winners the cape robotics art team and the clipper bots and an excellent performance by that blue alliance of mcmattel and the clipper bots congratulations to the red alliance all right our red alliance is going to be using their one three minute timeout here in preparation for our final match going into this one for red one for blue it all ends here after two extremely entertaining matches you all get a third you're gonna get to see a third and in case you hadn't noticed as you get louder the robots get more and more aggressive and more interesting while we try to announce one of them i cannot i do want to take [Music] [Music] i think everybody over 30 is kind of thinking oh thank god they're here so we'll be ready to roll in just a couple more minutes thank you all so much for all of your support for being here huge thank you to the point this is an absolutely perfect venue for this event and it's so nice to have space and a beautiful spot [Applause] everything has been quite quite easy here i don't know about you but i feel the tension mounting both teams have proven that they are going to stick to their strategy and both teams have proven that their strategy can win there's not much room for error here so if either team can turn the tides in their favor this could be the deciding factor i think we have a minute 18 left before the red team will be joining us that would be the thick long earth society versus the electric eagles and the trojans so stand by we have a minute left nothing like a countdown to build attention with only 20 seconds left nine eight seven six five four three two [Music] red alliance is on their way we're setting up our field as we speak these pneumatics are recharged and ready to punch these teams continue uh to amaze us in an act of great sportsmanship here the blue alliance is using their time out to allow the red alliance to work out a mechanical problem this oh and they got a style point from hunter hundred style points what's the dollar value of a hunter style point it's like three dollars they got a three dollar bag of dum dum lollipops who has the most so less lessen the dollar for one this is truly what it what wow this is truly what this program is about though i'd say the act of nobility though is priceless part about this match all four bots want to know that they go in and compete at their highest possible level ready to wait just a little bit longer to make sure but the ultimate winner deserves every bit of that glory all right with only a minute and a half separating us from the most exciting match of the day we are looking forward to these four teams meeting one more time everyone wants to know how this one will end the along earth society has returned just in time to have 10 seconds to go [Applause] these teams know what it is to compete they're taking care of each other and now they're going to go head-to-head once again we would like to hear some noise from the audience please [Applause] it's been leading up to this all season weekend after weekend of head-to-head competitions at high schools at various venues across maine and here is the final battle of the season let's hear it [Applause] i have one question for you red team are you ready blue team are you ready excellent hunter let's start this in three two one go [Music] red team is just zippier than ever they're going for that beginning advantage so they can hold on to two mobile goal posts at once for the match they also succeeded in getting several rings into the bucket which gives them the victory for autonomous all right and we'll begin driver control in three two [Music] [Applause] [Music] it all comes down to the next minute 30. you're going head-to-head red team implementing a slightly different strategy scooping up many more rings than last time blue team getting counted down on for trapping as long as red team is allowed to get out it's not trapping we still have a minute seven on the clock this could go either way blue team's still trying to wrench the mobile goal posts out of red's claws 50 seconds on the clock blue attempting to tip red out of the ring all right this is getting interesting with 40 seconds left hunter's hands still raised because those seconds for trapping still apply we're nearing that 30 second mark there it is there's the 30 second bell now our teams are going to attempt their stacking routine we're online their excellent parking job from before red team looking to offset that victory with ring points 10 more seconds blue team is balanced we'll see if the red team has packed enough wings to offset that difference what an outstanding match from all properly all right they are starting to count up the wings their wings often aren't utilized but they can make a difference we're going to look at how many of those are there to offset the score so many things contributing to the final here but i think we can all agree that was an exciting match to watch once again [Applause] four teams made that made those finals really really fun we are looking forward to getting some final results tabulated the refs are doing their work we are being careful so dave have you ever seen a tighter competition than this i certainly have not this has been exciting i think it's down to the amount of rings red has collected at this point it's really anyone's game we're waiting to see if we have scores we do have scores all right we have scores we want to hear some noise before the scores big round of applause for all four of these teams for making this very very exciting [Applause] and there it is very very close goes to the red alliance long earth society 56j and thick earth society 4393 s with an absolutely wonderful wonderful battle with 80 30a electric eagles and 41 404a the trojans wow an eight point difference there [Music] [Applause] [Music] especially that last finals match and we've had some awesome choice all throughout the day we had our

mistake and gave me a microphone so for those of you that don't know me my name is jacob bolyer i worked with the rac foundation and the robotics institute of maine so i just wanted to take a second and before we get to the excellence award thank all of you for coming out all of you the students for competing this was amazing amazing matches an amazing event thank you so much [Applause] we've been handing out a lot of hardware and i had some questions earlier about what's uh who qualifies for the world championship apparently there's an event that a lot of teams like to go to so just a reminder for middle school the following teams qualify for the world championship from this event excellence award tournament champions and design award that's five teams uh yeah sorry four teams i can't count four teams from maine in the middle school for high school we have the excellence award the tournament champions the tournament finalists the design award and the robot skills champion how many is that seven yeah there you go i can get you to do my math so with that i actually did have a purpose to come up here i get to present not one but two volunteer of the year awards right why do we have a second well we had a season you see in this year called 2019 2020 i don't know if you remember it it was a long time ago but it was a whole season and then we had to cancel states like a day or two before and it's like ha we did a lot of work and somebody deserves this award but we weren't able to present it so when the planning committee was you know meeting and you were like hey what if we honor the person we were going to give that award to in 2020 in 2022. so two years too late i want to present the 2020 volunteer of the year award to allison bessette [Applause] hey did i make you cry so so a little history behind that 2018-2019 i think billy bissett got it so now both the bessette twins they're twins have a voluntary award so thank you both for everything you do i super appreciate it [Applause] all right and we had this thing called the season in 2021 2022 where we actually got to compete it's freezing right so this year was probably the first year in i think like

further ado thank you hunter and congratulations for being the 2022 maine state volunteer of the year [Applause] all right on behalf of the robotics institute of maine and the rit foundation i thank you however we're not done we still have two awards that you know qualify for an event called world championship so ed take it away thank you so much all right so our final two awards the first one is
