We may be better than others but still lose because of certain "unfair factors". Some times, we win because we have better luck. It may not be fair all the times but... I guess we'll just need to learn to accept things some times. Try again next time. :-) @tk2

It's actually quite challenging and fun to be apart of such competitions. Well, we leave every competition with some experience -- good or bad -- it's still valuable :-) @tk2

Not winning was bad. To be fair, my second place was also because of luck. Half way when the robot was on the way, I noticed the two "sensors" were not facing the right angle. That made the robot to take a wrong turn (the first one). We were lucky that somehow it made another "wrong turn" (the second turn) and headed towards the exit. We had a photographs taken at the end of the prize giving ceremony. I tried to put on a smile but I'm sure it looked really bad and fake. @Andrew Odlum

I am sorry that you didn't win the competition. It sounds like it was a really cool experience. You were totally robbed. I am sorry that you didn’t win the competition.
