Authors Note: Recently I went to a robotics competition and It was very interesting so I thought I should write about it.
So a few days ago the robotics team and I went to the competition and what happened was we first set up our presentation at a certain spot. Then we went over to the board and finished our missions as best we could. Later in the day we went to the presentation, technical, and teamwork rooms to show the judges what we had done. When we got out all of us where pleased with how we did and we were looking forward to the actual competition.
When the time came that we had to go and compete we went and set up and then they said "3...2...1...LEGO!" then we pressed start so our robot would go and then eventually when it was over we had 72 points. Then when we went the next time we got 132 points and we were doing great.
Then, on the last round, on our last program the robot got stuck! We were all sad because it didn't work but then, it got unstuck and we got about 100 points on the last program! It was amazing! After the competition, when everyone was done we had the closing ceremony and they handed out about 15 awards.
We were nominated for about half of them but we never won one. Then they were handing out the 1st and 2nd place prize and they called us! We won 2nd place and we were very happy. Now in December we are going to the state competition. I cant wait. I hope its as good as this one.
