Hi everyone,

We have some exciting BE updates!

For starters, the Brunswick Eruption website has received a new look. Check it out at http://be.raiderrobotix.org/.

Next, volunteer sign-ups are starting to trickle in. If you’re interested in joining our team, fill out the volunteer form on the website. Some available positions include referees, queuing, field reset, photographers, field set-up/take-down, and much more. The form is short and open-ended, so let us know how you would like to help!

BE is filling up quickly. As of today, we have 22 registered teams:

25 Raider Robotix
222 Tigertrons
224 The Tribe
271 Mechanical Marauders
303 TEST Team
341 Miss Daisy
358 Robotic Eagles

An updated team list is being actively maintained on our Event Info page. If you’ve already registered and don’t see your team listed within 1-2 business days, please send me a PM here or contact us via e-mail.

Finally, please “Like” the event on Facebook and follow @BrunsEruption on Twitter! Let us know what you would like to see at BE this year. Have a rule change suggestion? Idea for a workshop? We want to hear it! :)

Re: Brunswick Eruption 11 November 3, 2012
 

Hey, everyone! We are now up to 27 teams registered which means things are filling up really quickly considering we are still ~4.5 months from the event. This, of course, means two things:

1. Register now to guarantee you'll have your spot! Don't worry about payment right away--as Mr. Cokeley mentioned in his above post, we will take care of all that when school restarts in the fall.
2. With this year looking like we will reach our cap of 40 teams, we need all the volunteers we can get! Register to volunteer to get on board!

Be sure to like us on Facebook and follow us on twitter to stay up to date with all the other exciting news as plans are finalized. We are currently working on coming up with some fun rule changes, planning some workshops, and, of course, formulating this year's Evil Sundae recipe.

Mahalo!

Hi Brandon,

There are still 7 spots left. We currently have 33 teams registered and are hoping to reach our maximum capacity of 40 teams in the fall. We would love to have 2495 come play with us!

Re: Brunswick Eruption 11 - November 3, 2012
 

Attention teams,

Today registration for Brunswick Eruption 11 reached a record 39 teams!

Since school has just started, we have decided to close open veteran team registration at this time. We will be reserving the remaining 3 spots for potential pre-rookie teams. Veteran teams are encouraged to continue to register online through the event website and those who do will be placed on a waiting list. As we near closer to the event, if any spots become available, we will invite teams from the waitlist to attend BE on a first-come, first-served basis.

Additionally, an e-mail blast will be sent to the list of currently registered teams, as well as our mailing list, in the near future.

Thank you for your cooperation and for making this the largest Brunswick Eruption yet!

Hey everyone! We have some exciting news from BEHQ!

We are pleased to announce the first ever Brunswick Eruption Facebook Photo Contest. The rules are simple:

1. Always practice safety first.
2. All photos must appropriate.
3. You don’t necessarily have to be in uniform, but it should be obvious which team you are with (i.e. a display of team colors, number, mascot, or some other indicator should be in the photo).
4. Your photo should feature at least this year’s robot.
5. Photos must be submitted by midnight on October 27th.
6. To submit, upload your photo to Brunswick Eruption’s Facebook wall and include your team number in the post.
7. Be creative! Remember, you’re not just preparing any old off-season—Brunswick Eruption is the ultimate November New Jersey Hawaiian robotics getaway!

Upload your photo to Brunswick Eruption's Facebook wall and they will be added to our Facebook Photo Contest album. Full details are available at http://be.raiderrobotix.org/facebookcontest.html.

Each team that enters will receive 50 Aloha Award points and the team with the most likes will earn a whopping 250 points!

Good luck!

If anyone is interested in a collaborative scouting effort:
1640 is going to have a very bare-bones crew at Brunswick (because we're volunteering here), but we'd love to loan someone a few scouts hopefully in exchange for sharing information. Even if you wouldn't want to share the actual info, there are several teams with great systems that my scouts would love to work on/learn from. Reply or PM if you're interested! Thank you

PM-ed! :)
