Re: 2013 Waterloo Regional
 
Id like to see (as would everyone) a match with 1114, 2056, and 610 on the same alliance. Just imagine the score they could put up...1114 and 2056 can score 250-275 (with fouls but still) and with 610...that just scares me.

2056 just got its first loss of its season against 1114!! They'll get a rematch soon though, we'll see if 1114 can keep its perfect record. Great regional so far

I'm gonna laugh if the pair make it through the season with their only losses being to each other.

I only mentioned YouTube because that's what most people use. Anyway, good to know that they're being archived.

With 2056 having lost, and the rankings sitting how they are, if 610 and 2056 both beat 1114, and nothing goes wrong for 610, they will be the #1 seed tomorrow. If 610 beats 1114, and 1114 beats 2056 again, then 610 has to make up a large (90 point) auton deficit in 3 matches. Unlikely.

But honestly, look at how deep this field is. It is totally plausible for a lower seeded alliance of three strong teams to be a huge threat to 1114 and 2056. What a regional.

It'll be interesting to see if this happens, but if 1114 / 2056 / xxx play 610 / yyy / zzz in the finals... That means that no matter what happens, teams yyy and zzz are going to the Championship.

Actually, 610 controls it's own destiny. If they win match 52, match 60 becomes irrelevant as both 1114 (q52) and 2056 (q48) would have already lost at least once, opening the door for 610 to seed 1st. each of the top 3 have three matches tomorrow.

The Canadian field has gotten real deep over the past couple years. It would have been awesome if 4334 and 1503 made it to this event. What today did for the Waterloo Regional is make it an attractive regional for teams to go experience.

It was a great ride today! So far, 1114 has been the only 30 point climber (with a 20 point dump on top of that). We hope to have our climber working properly tomorrow. It was a real thrill being part of the 151-134 match. GTR West promises to be interesting next week as many of the same players will be there.

Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, the high score is currently 64 through 26 qualification rounds.

I am truly glad that the Wild Card rule is now in place, and the second tier of Canadian talent gets to qualify for the World Championship even if they can't pull the upset. I have a feeling you will see multiple Canadian robots on Einstein this year.

Ya that 117 tie was insane for us (772). This is the match the Mike and Justin Recorded by the way, so you will be able to see it from robot view, behind the glass (video and Audio).

Here you can see the Match Video If you missed it.

This situation is exactly why 4343 is preparing as though the outcome of our showing at west could very likely result in a ticket to CMP. Basically, by the time west rolls around, all the strong teams that will be top contenders at West have already qualified, so making finals is likely all it will take to get a seat.

That's nucking futs.

Great to see all these strong teams, it really is. I'll definitely have to find a spot to watch Waterloo while I'm at Mt. Olive district.

1114 soundly defeats 610 in Q52. Likely now that the winner of Q60 will take the #1 seed.

To clarify what that's about, in F1-1 the #2 alliance held the #1 alliance under 200 for the first time in the elimination rounds—but still lost to them 166–139.

Each alliance had about 60 points in autonomous mode, and the match opened with an artillery battle between 610 and 4069 shooting full-court.

On the #1 alliance, 1114's climber appeared tenuous and they elected to hold it at 20 points.
