The dates here are off by one day...we're finishing up today.

I don't know about the award page not being updated...it should reflect the awards given out yesterday? but it does not.

I'm working on putting video of a few matches on youtube. They're kind of NERDS-centric.

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

Is anyone else getting an Error#2032 on the Webcast?

I was really hoping to watch today.

Thanks.

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

The webcast seems to be working for me. Try using

madstream.team1323.com

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

Thank you! It appears to be a computer issue on my part. Well atleast everyone else will be able to watch, while I attempt to solve this issue.

EDIT: Must have been a browser issue. IE wouldn't show it, but Firefox will.

Oh my, a rookie team at top seed. Congrats 4161

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

That looked like a good 3 bot balance, what happened? Is the webcast just deceiving me?

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

1661 was supported by something else, it looked like the field barrier. But the question now is why was it counted as a two-bot balance?

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

That bridge shouldn't have been called as balanced at all.

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

Hopefully there will be some explanation as to why 2 bots counted and not 0. I think it should have been 0 because of

"A Bridge will count as Balanced if it is within 5° of horizontal and all Robots touching it are fully supported by it."

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

When the final score is assessed per [G37], a Balanced Alliance Bridge will earn points based on the number of Alliance Robots completely supported by the Bridge, per Section 2.2.5, as follows:

Emphasis mine

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

There were a number of matches in Alamo (it's the only other regional I've watched a lot of) that were judged according to: and I think that, strictly, the bridge should not have counted as balanced, although I like your interpretation better.

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

They've taken back their call

Edit: and they just did it again, legal this time

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

I can't believe a team just won by triple balancing the whole match.

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

Red card on blue, in my opinion correctly called, as the blue robot, while in the blue lane, clearly bumped the red robot several times, for no (apparent) reason other than accruing penalty points, which is a violation of G45.

Edit: Confirmed by head ref, red card to blue, red wins.

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

epic fail... did they really think that they could get away with that?
