I would settle for free parking...

$14 a day :mad:

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

That's cheap by NYC standards, a total of $42 for the weekend.
Now you know why I am taking the bus with the team. At 5 am. ugh.

But excitement is building rapidly. Can't wait much longer!

There will also be cheaper, $6 parking available a couple blocks away: http://www.midatlanticrobotics.com/r...-parking-lots/

One of the few times I love SEPTA.

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

Agreed... I'll be taking the R6 (Manayunk/Norristown) line in.

On that note.. just got back from load-in. Half or more of the teams are loaded in and ready to go tomorrow morning!

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

Haha, definitely agree with this.


I'll be there on Saturday since my boss won't let me off work :P We will be a down a few mentors but I think the kids will be on top of their game (hopefully) :rolleyes:

Good luck tomorrow everyone!

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

This should be a very good competition. I'm excited to see all the improvements teams made and compete against them!

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

222 departs in 5 hours!

See you all there!

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

Unfortunately I'll have to miss tomorrow, but I will be there for Friday and Saturday. Can't wait to see you all!

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

Good luck to the MAR Championship teams this weekend. The focus of the FIRSTiverse will be focused on you and Michigan.

A special bout of good luck to team 11 and their bid at some MAR Chairman's hardware.

Just verified with Ed Petrillo that the "5" teams qualifying for CMP on MAR points doesn't include teams who have already made it. So teams will really be fighting for MAR points this weekend, they are worth triple at this event...

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

The match schedule is currently available through FRC Tracker 2012. (It's not yet on the FIRST website. Does anyone know where the app scrapes its data from?)

The competition is going to be tough, as there are a lot of great match-ups. We play against both 341 and 1676 in our first match today! :ahh:

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

I'm trying to find it as well. The tidbits I've gotten from other teams lead me to believe that we're in for one hell of a show.

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

Looks like matches start at 4:00 eastern time for those waiting to watch the action online.

Match 63 looks intersting. 303, 2729 & 341 vs 365, 3974 & 1218.

Re: 2012 Mid-Atlantic Robotics FRC Region Championship
 

Can someone take a photo or something of the match schedule and post it here so that those of us without iphones can see it?
