hiiiii! the fembots are here! :]

Re: 2012 Madtown Throw Down
 

I want to suggest something to whoever is running the live feed.

Place the blue alliance camera on the other side of the red camera so you can see the bridge from 2 sides, (2 angles) just an opinion, but would be good I think.

Re: 2012 Madtown Throw Down
 

Good idea, but we're limited by the length of wires and the field of view of the cameras... I'll see what can be done.

Re: 2012 Madtown Throw Down
 

Hey Eugene, is there anything you can do about the terrible lag on the webcast? (both audio and visual)

Re: 2012 Madtown Throw Down
 

Things seem fine here.

Re: 2012 Madtown Throw Down
 

Are there scores and/or a match schedule posted online somewhere?

Thanks Eugene. I don't see 1662 on the rankings list?

Re: 2012 Madtown Throw Down
 

Talked to the guy in charge. Fixed.

Re: 2012 Madtown Throw Down
 

Stream down? Also 971 possibly shouldn't be #3 seed since it appears one of their matches was a surrogate....Not sure if the on-site rankings match the website though.

Re: 2012 Madtown Throw Down
 

Thanks for the note on 971. We have them in 8th place here. The stream should also be back up, FMS had to be restarted and took out our webcasting computer as well. Unfortunately, this also means we won't have a timer for elimination matches but we will still have live scoring.

Re: 2012 Madtown Throw Down
 

Congrats 1323, 971, and 1324 on your win! You guys were a joy to watch.

On behalf of 399, I'd like to thank all of the teams that lent a helping hand to us. During our last qualification match, our shooter gear boxes decided to jam. As we scrambled to find the correct tools and replacement parts, we truly appreciated the assistance we received from 973, 971, and 1323. We wouldn't have had a shooter in the eliminations without you guys.

We had to pack light for this trip as we had 5 robots on our bus(399, 6399, 3647, 2339, 2493). I'm glad we had some friends to fall back on.

I was stoked to see our buddies on 1323 seed 1st and take their first event win, they had a really solid robot this year.
