M.A.R.C. 2012 Invite list
 
I want to thank every team that applied to M.A.R.C. this year. We had over 50 teams apply this year. This is a huge step up from the 12 teams in 2008. Last year, I tried to get every team that applied into the competition and this ended up causing a big nightmare for me in the end. With wanting to keep the qual rounds around 9-10 matches per team and some space concerns, I have decided to place the max. team limit at 51. This will allow us to keep the agenda relatively close and give each team 9 qualification matches.

Many amazing teams have applied and my decision to choose the invitees was very difficult. Please understand that I hate telling a team that they can not play but I have to look at what is best for the event. For those that did not make the initial invite list, there is still a chance for you to come and participate at MARC. I will send invites to you if any of the initial teams withdraw from the competition.

I feel like an outsider; 461 is one of 7 teams that are not located in Michigan. :ahh:
Very thankful for the opportunity to be around so many Michigan teams! It's truly an awe-inspiring experience!

Good luck at MARC!

Well, ninja'd by my own teammate, but MARC is one of the best events I've been to. It's relaxed, yet competitive, and the people there are some of the best I've met in FIRST.

Will there be any rule changes for MARC?

Have they be decided on yet?

Re: M.A.R.C. 2012 Invite list
 
Not totally, no. The head referee of MARC, Gary Voshol, is pretty good about posting them on Chief Delphi as soon as they're completely decided on. So you'll know as soon as its official.

Tell me there will be mentor matches. It's one of the highlights for me every year :D

The Ultimate Protection Squad is ecstatic to be able to join Team 1732, the Hilltoppers, and show Michigan what Milwaukee has to offer. Plus, we don't get to see our Michigan friends nearly enough, so thanks for letting us come and play with the big boys =)

I have been told there will not be mentor matches this year. There's not enough time to do them and all the team matches too.

Rule changes should be coming out this week. I'm waiting on a few more opinions from those that I sent them to for review.

I can't wait to compete with such great teams at my 1st MARC event. I'm especially looking forward to playing with the 7 team from outside of Michigan.

Good luck everyone, and see you all soon. :D
