Your team did a beautiful run. You can definitely get 314 with these designs. But in this video run you lost one of the purple bacteria to the mat, which reset the dispensers to 7 points when emptied, and the robot was picked up before the corn made it IN base, which according to Rule 18 the Referee would then have to take away. But you can definitely get to 314 accounting for this, which is awesome! Must be the best score in the League!

@dcsastry Thanks and yes you are right about the bacteria and the corns sorry; But 314 points is the max we have got and i haven't seen a better run at this time. But wee didn't won at the competition it all went really bad at that day you can see our scores at the link i have found to you in the description.

@musicboiler I am a second year coach in the Sacramento District of the Northern California Region. There was only one other team I have seen so far that has been able to engineer such large and well thought out designs. It's too bad you didn't win the performance award at your competition - but I hope you won the design award! Best of luck with the rest of the season! My team's qualifier is this weekend! Our perfect max score is 241, but we haven't gotten that yet.

@dcsastry Nice and good luck with your qualifier this week and 241 points isn´t bad at all. I haven´t seen many people that have scored over 200 points so that is good and good luck with it. And wee only scored 240 points at our day.

Wee did´t win the design award the team that won ran of with it but what they have made was really cool too so

Is it so that you got your team run on film cause i really wood like to see it if i could.:)

[dcsastry]

@musicboiler Oh and one other thing - I didn't notice before, but on your run to drop the trailer back in place I noticed you had an attachment to drop a bacteria in the sink and that it was hanging on the sink after all the runs. I believe that the mission description for Handwashing - Bacteria states that the sink can only support the weight of the Bacteria and no other LEGO parts. So you may want to relook at that....

[musicboiler]

@dcsastry Yes your right about that. At the competition we did the same but but the jeffery had their rules and we had to take it of and drive without. But your right about it and this video was made a day before the competition so but thanks. And maybe there shout been said that it is 311 points instead of 314 points(:

@musicboiler same happened to us it seemed like our programs were changed

Your last brick off brick on your robot can only be 1 ft tall 1 ft wide and 1 ft long sorry great ideas though

[Christina3276]

@TheJazzman117 your actually right, but they still had a good design...Also guys what he said- be careful with that, things are dropping.

[Christina3276]

Cant wait until Jan.28 Saturday!!!!

[ZekeHall96]

How do you connect the motors to the wheels every time you switch the NXT brick to a different body?

[Thi705]

Hello, I wonder where you got your yellow signs of lego, is a box with extra parts (though not the main NXT) or lego toys?

[TheJazzman117]

First of all, you've dropped bacteria on the mat. Second of all, did you get nine viruses in the sink? I saw a bunch fall out.

[quini279]

I think than really you get 267 points, not 314!
