With four more divisions, we will be having four more MCs than usual. Does anyone know who will be joining the MC crew at the championship?

The host of the PNW champs said he would be at one of the fields, dont know what one though.

Did you hear the Game announcer? One of the best I've ever heard.

I'm hoping one of the fields will get Karthik... Easily the best MC of any competitions I've been at (he did Waterloo 2014). It was my whole team's first event and we learned more about the other teams at Waterloo from his announcements than we did all year from everything else. Fun, energetic, and super knowledgeable - if he's doing a division, I'm going to be tuning into that one.

Probably not going to happen but it would be neat to have Woodie MC...

I second this, Yoji is always fantastic. Would love to see him back on the Championships fields.

If he does, I kinda hope he pulls what he did at Chezy Champs last year...

When no one picks 973.... (https://youtu.be/cVRAa2SxYmo?t=15m15s) Probably one of my favorite moments all season.


Paul + Karthik for Einstein please?

Will never happen unfortunately. Not only does FRC conflict with playoff basketball, but I don't think his contract would allow him to on.

I would very much love to see The Angry get his shot as an MC on a field. He's paid his dues and deserves to out there.

You're about 10 years too late, probably more. At least for match-to-match; he does tend to do the awards ceremonies.

Count me in on this. Eric absolutely deserves the opportunity - he's one of the best out there and is a great ambassador for FIRST. Plus, he's just an awesome guy to hang out with.

I think everyone in PNW would agree for that, especially with his pink hair:cool:

The radio DJ Hawaii MC was the best I've ever seen. Incredible voice, actually funny, professional, and had a good understanding of the game.

Not an MC, but I think we can all agree that there's a certain game announcer who NEEDS to make a St. Louis appearance.

Sir Charles

For the uninitiated.

One of the PNW GAs, Bryan Andrews, tried to mimic Sir Charles during a rematch (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqy5wPxXSrE)

God, I miss Sir Charles. Did you know he had his own radio show on Atlanta public radio for a while?

Anyway, we're set for MCs and GAs. You'll see who they are very soon!

I know Yali Barak, the MC for the Israeli Regional, will do Carver. He does a really great job in Israel, glad he has a chance to MC at champs.

Yes Bryan is going to be a GA and not a MC on Currie.

I'll add my vote for Tyler Olds. He always does a great job as emcee.

Anyone in New England knows that Eric is the best. Excellent excellent MC.

I hope Chris Copelan from Bayou will be doing it this year. He is a lot of fun and has a chest full of crazy hats and clothing items. I'll be volunteering as an MC assistant.. if he was MC, and I was his assistant, that would be cool!

He is incredible for being pretty new to the job as well. I could see him being one of the best MC's in the world in a year or two.

Awards at Finger Lakes (https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10205138684763343).

He MC's a lot of North East Regionals including Finger Lakes and Tech Valley.

Great MC, real friendly, lot of fun, and really great to be around even if you're just talking with him.

Archimedes - Blair Hundertmark
Tesla - Jeff Seaton
Galileo - Dan Richardson
Carson - Dave Verbrugge
Curie - ?
Carver - ?
Newton - Kris Verdeyen
Hopper- George Chen

There are backups as well cycling in periodically, haven't recognized any of them other than the immediately obvious Mark Leon.

I second this. A bit biased towards the Bayou folks, but he really is one of the best characters to be around.
