Team 2386 is excited to attend along with the rest of our Halton District School Board Robotics Community!...
The Halton crew are all coming to this event. This will be the first time ever that we have all traveled together.
1334, 2200, 2386, 3571, 4902, 4976 and 4992 will be arriving in North Bay Wednesday evening.
See you all there!
So this should make things interesting: http://www.baytoday.ca/content/news/details.asp?c=59956
As of 5:00 AM EDT Wednesday, , Environment Canada continued a special weather advisory for North Bay - Powassan - Mattawa and West Nipissing - French River.
Snow expected, beginning this evening in Northwestern Ontario and spreading toward Northeastern Ontario by Thursday morning.
A developing weather system will track towards Ontario on Thursday. Snow associated with this system will spread into the southern parts of Northwestern Ontario this evening, then spread eastward through the night into the southern parts of Northeastern Ontario.
At this time it appears that parts of Northwestern Ontario - roughly along and south of a line from about Atikokan to Marathon - could receive between 10 and 15 cm of snowfall in total, most of it falling tonight and Thursday morning.

Well if it's so warm what's with the snow?
All kidding aside, I would love to come and even help out as a FTS but with limited funds bunking out in a snow bank would not really that much fun.

After seeing the robots today I'm confident that all of the top 4 alliances have an equal chance at winning the event.
Hopefully field reset crew will be ready for the home run derby 2013 & 2200 are going to put on in match 57.
610 was really impressed with 188's robot at GTRW and incorporated some of their design elements into our latest design iteration. Good luck everyone and remember to drive it like you stole it.

This was the greatest to see when walking into the pits this morning.

Can someone tell the game announcer how many points a 3 assist low goal is worth? He keeps saying 21 points.

So by the looks of the wildcard, if i'm reading correctly it seems that every team in the finals gets an invitation to worlds. I really do like the new wildcard system, it helps alot.

That's correct.
610 and 4914 both qualified at GTRW (winners and RAS respectively). That gives the finalist alliance 2 wildcards, but 4476 won GTRE so they're bypassed. The same thing happened at Waterloo and GTRW in 2013.

Was great seeing your bot at NorthBay this weekend. I watched you guys during GTW and my god, I was blown away on how your bot worked. It was fantastic!
I love the picker-upper mechanism you guys have!
Good luck to you guys during Worlds!
thanks for the kind words... #FRCNB was really well organized. The city and 1305 gave all of the visiting teams a great time. Two thumbs up.

We've just returned from this event. It was extremely well-organized and well-run. 1305 deserves a big hand from FIRST. Great venue, great city - what little we could see sticking up out of the snow - and great team social. We're looking forward to returning next year. Congratulations to 1305 as well on their well-deserved Chairman's Award. Kudos to Nipissing University, the City of North Bay and all the sponsors and volunteers for making every team so welcome.

I hope everything at our machine shop ran smoothly, it's the first time we've had it setup at a regional that we weren't attending so we had a different crew running things than usual.
Congrats to the winning alliance, especially fellow TDSB teams 188 and 4914!

I have to agree that this wrap video was absolutely amazing...

Please pass on my kudos to the people who were involved in making this video... I will be showing it to everyone I know once it is available publicly.
I can't think of a single negative thing to say about this event- just an amazing job all around! Thank you everyone for putting this together, we had a blast and are looking forward to doing it again!

Me too, I can offer up HD hosting on WFN's Vimeo Pro account if it helps.
All of the matches are up on the WFN archives (http://www.watchfirstnow.com/archives).
