Nah I think this time we should win ;) last year was our last/Only regional win, but I'm kind of glad we lost in 2005 because it gave me the oppurtunity to become the first of my family to win a regional :D

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

To settle your debate as to who will win, why not team up with 174 and both 772 and 639 can win this year? haha.


At first I thought Mexican meant from Mexico NY.

Talk about an interesting FLR. Tons of old favorites, a couple of returning faces, and a lot of new competitors. I dare say that this year is going to be a wild one. It's anyone's game.

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

First there will be Fingerlakes on Week 1, then there will be the FIRST annual Fingerlakes Rematch on Week 5 in Cleaveland once we all know the intricacies of the game.

1126, 2340, 1450, 1551, 1507, 639, 2228, 340, 3003, 201 will all be there.

Now the question: To reuse scouting data to improve sample size or assume considerable robot improvements will be made and throw out old data.

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

I don't like to be nit picky, but out of curiosity, why did you throw 201 into this list?

As far as scouting data goes, for the most part, much of it can be reused. If you want to adjust for potential improvements, that will require deeper analysis. You need to look at the quality of the team as a whole; are they the kind of team that historically will put in the effort to improve? Do they have the resources to make considerable rennovations? And if not, are they changes that can be made to the robot that can make it more competitive? Some robots just can't be saved sometimes. It's not a cut-and-dry system. It takes research and a careful eye for details. And sometimes, even that can be wrong.

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

Ahahaha, you and Garrick pick up on exactly the same things. I was going through the list of teams on the Regional and Qualifying events and just copied all that were from Rochester. Of course, 201 is from Rochester MI. I originally made this post on Facebook and Garrick noticed this as well, but before he did, I had copied that list over here.

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

That's what I figured :) I just wasn't sure if you were mistaken or listing teams with something in common and I was missing it.

P.S. Garrick and I are actually the same person. I just have two accounts so I don't seem like a know it all.

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

The account thing isnt true....we are however, almost the same person. Except you are much taller.

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

+ Team 3157

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

There are 49 teams currently registered for Finger Lakes. I expect a 50th team to appear sometime soon....

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

It's a little bit of a shame that I'm already committed to another event for this weekend, I like hanging out with the Rochester FIRST people.

Hope it's a good one though!

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

are you suggesting 48? :p

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

Very nice -- a full, packed full regional with a great mix of teams. I can't wait for kickoff!

Re: 2013 Finger Lakes Regional
 

I believe your missing FRC 1511, or The Blue Alliance is wrong, which could happen (and happens a bit to frequently).
