Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

The Aztechs are excited and putting together a super secret fun project for this regional.

Details to be announced soon. ;)

Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

Going to be a solid competition, judging by the teams.

Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

So excited for the Pine Tree Regional as our second regional... look for the TWO big coach buses reppin the Ontario license plates and Canadian flags! 2386 and 2200 will see you all there! :)

Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

Alright everyone.....the fun project I alluded to earlier in the thread is to be revealed. Team 157 is hosting an alternate reality game called "Where's Wilson". It's our take on the classic murder mystery. Keep an eye on our you tube and twitter for videos and fun tweets leading up to the regional - and see if you can figure out whodunnit. Among the teams who guess correctly, one will win a fabulous prize!

Here are the first two videos, I'll keep posting them here as they get released!

Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

Week 6 sneaks up on everyone....

Many of the teams coming up have had a really good season, for an inaugural regional I'm expecting some high scores right from the start.

We have some friends from Canada coming up as well! Yes, this is one of the few places in the US where a Canadian team has to drive NORTH to get to a US competition :ahh: Kudos to 2200 and 2386 for getting on a 10+ hour bus ride to visit us :)

If you're reading this and your team hasn't filled out a team information form, here is the link: Team Info. Your MCs and GAs will use your team's fun facts during introductions and throughout the match in addition to our own scouting.

See you tomorrow!

We leave in just a few hours and I am very excited!

I have to say after CTR this past weekend I am really excited for Pine Tree! I'm expecting this to be an amazing event with lots of great action!

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone up there!

Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

Careful with the Akido rolls Eric!

Leaving in three hours- so excited!

Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

I still have 3 good ligaments left and 2 events, so I should be fine :rolleyes:

Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

Can't wait for tomorrow! Our team has made good use of our 30lbs, if you saw us at GSR you are in for a surprise! :cool:

Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

After 1 day of competition I must say this is the best regional I have attended.

Congratulations to rookie team 4793, the Gobotics from Old Orchid Beach. Maine. They have a mostly wooden robot that looks really nice, drives well, has a 1 point dumper, a 10 point climber and plays good defense. It was built by 2 students and one mentor, although they are up to 3 students now. Their entire team is on the field during their matches. I was very happy to see them win the Rookie Inspiration award.

Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

Does anyone know what the illegal component on a robot in the red alliance was? I'm unable to watch on line.

Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional
 

I heard that they had pre charged their pneumatic system because their on board compressor wasn't working, so they had to let out the air.

But aren't you allowed to do that? (R80, R81)
