it doesn't work well with blue alliance link either.

But it works fine if you just download the asx file as part of windows media player

GKC elims are gonna be pretty interesting. If these rankings hold pretty steady through tomorrow I see the top 8 alliances being: 1. 1986/1806, 2. 1939/1730, 3. 1775/967, 4. 935/1625, 5. 2996/1825, 6. 3528/1710, 7. 2457/3928, 8. 2353/1763. Those would be amazing matches all the way through.

A well deserved congratulations to Mr. Aaron Bailey of 1986 for a long overdue Woodie Flowers Award

Re: 2013 Greater Kansas City Regional
 

Well, hopefully those will change. We are 4th seed now. :) These finals are going to be very interesting...

Also very excited for these elims. Could see almost any alliance winning it all. Very excited to see what happens when a tall bot gets in front of 1806. Will get really crowded loading for 1986 then.

Cal here with an update from Hale arena: the number four seed managed top topple team titanium's win streak, but the number one seed came back with a vengeance. The arena is thirsty for the number two to upset the number one, but 3928 had to sub out.

Re: 2013 Greater Kansas City Regional
 

Congrats to Titanium and Aaron Bailey on the second championships, Woodie Flowers Award and opening up a wildcard spot for another team.

Re: 2013 Greater Kansas City Regional
 

Gratz to 1939.

Re: 2013 Greater Kansas City Regional
 

Thanks! This is our first trip to Championships since we won Engineering Inspiration in 2008. Our team couldn't be more excited! But, we didn't get to the finals alone.

Thanks to our alliance: 3928 - Team Neutrino, and 1987 - The Broncobots for being awesome in elims. Team Neutrino's autonomous was amazing, especially in that match when our alliance scored 86 points in autonomous. Thanks to 1987 for, in SWATs words, "sprouting a tree" to play defense! Also, have to thank 2353 - The Legion for being ready to go in the final match when Neutrino blew a Victor.

Congratulations to 1986 - Titanium, 1806 - SWAT, and 2457 - The Law for a truly impressive and inspiring show at the K.C. Regional. It was terrifying and awe inspiring at the same time!

Special thanks to 1986 for winning in Hub City and giving us a shot at the Wild Card spot for Champs! Hope to see you in St. Louis!

Re: 2013 Greater Kansas City Regional
 

Did someone in your alliance actually go to midfield and pick up discs and still have time to get back to score them? Because I am curious if that was a real score or not; mainly because there is only 13 max on one side(specifically one side) and that would only be a max of 78 points by itself.

Re: 2013 Greater Kansas City Regional
 

My bad. It said 86 on the scoreboard at the time, but I'm too tired to do math. You are right. Neutrino had a 7 disk autonomous and 1987 and us both hit 3 each for a total of 78. Still pretty impressive I think, but thanks for the correction.

Re: 2013 Greater Kansas City Regional
 

No, it was still amazing to see.

Re: 2013 Greater Kansas City Regional
 

Special thanks to two mentors on 1987, who without we would not have been able to win Engineering Inspiration! And congratulations to the 2013 GKC Regional Winners and to the Finalists for making it as far as they did! And not to forget our awesome alliance captain 1775 and partners 938, we did great together, especially semis 1

Re: 2013 Greater Kansas City Regional
 

Did you know
1806 is the first team to ever be on the winning alliance more than twice.

Well, now this becomes really difficult to predict who next year's captain will be. Looks like the string of curious events is coming to an end.

As well, congratulations to all the teams that won awards, in particular team 1710 on yet another RCA. A well deserving team that us and any other team could hope to emulate.

As a side note, while people were at lunch, our team gladly accepted the 2013 Greater Kansas City machine shop award for "gratuitous use of the mobile machine shop." (Backstory: We showed up at the regional and discovered that our 10 point hanging arms were welded wrong. We then got parts here and there cut off and rewelded so that they work. After that, we discovered that in the new configuration, the arms would pivot the wrong way and not actually deploy. Another trip to the machine shop. Then, after fixing the pillow blocks, we discovered that the COTS pillow blocks simply wouldn't work. So we used the machine shop to make us some new custom pillow blocks. Final trip to the machine shop was to create a cross-arm bracing system. And those were just the trips to the machine shop that concerned our arm!)
