Spectrum just registered it should be fun playing with the Dallas area teams again.

How many teams have signed up so far?

I haven't got an update in a while, but I last heard we had 7-8 teams signed up.... We're trying to get into contact with more teams to get them excited. Many teams have related their intent to sign up but haven't yet....

It's our first year trying to organize this, so getting our name out will obviously be one of the hardest parts

Teams attending RoboReboot can you send me a link to your Chairman's Video if you have it? Even if it's not from this season I would still like them.

I'm going to see if we can play them at the event between matches or during breaks.

Practice day was great, but the pits were a bit sparse. Where is everybody? :D


We finally got both our robots (1296 and 9996) running simultaneously and had a fun day breaking just about everything on both

How many times have you seen a robot loose 2 (!) wheels early in one match, and still proceed to play defense until the buzzer? :rolleyes:

Audio should be good for the announcer and game sounds.

Also we are going to try to put up scores on this google sheet.
http://goo.gl/9pk5IE

That sheet also has YouTube video links on the third page and we are tweeting out videos as well.
Every match will be on this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTocT0DivsNle0KDHXyxj50Wto_NbFW2w

Thank you guys for putting on such a great offseason event. Everyone from team 4206 and Nolan Catholic did a great job hosting us.(especially dinner on Friday. It was really good). I can say everyone from 3991 and 3753 had a blast. Such a great way to win our first trophy ever. The competition was some of the fiercest i've ever seen, especially those final matches. Congrats to the Discobots, AusTIN CANS, and Lady CANS on being such a fantastic alliance to play against. And finally, thanks to The Full Metal Jackets (1296) for picking our teams. Hope to see everybody next year

Shout out to 4206 for hosting a great event! And thank you to all the event volunteers for doing such an excellent job!. I saw a lot of volunteers in purple shirts - what great spirit and GP from Spectrum, as always! We felt very welcomed and had a good time Friday and Saturday. The facility was excellent - RoboReboot gets the prize for easiest load-in/load-out ever!

Thanks to 3991 and 3753 for being such great partners - the alliance worked out well with everyone executing the strategy to near perfection. The Discobots (please keep the sidecar on your second robot - it was nice meeting your team and we love the hats!) , AusTIN CANS, and Lady CANS were awesome opponents.

Thanks to our good friends from 704 and 4364 for a good run with 9996! Congratulations to 2587, 2158 and 2881 on a well-played match and their victory!

Hey - we borrowed a Rev B bridge from someone (1710 we think). PM me an address and we'll get it in the mail ASAP. Thanks again for the kindness and GP!

We'll be back next year!
