Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

Hi Michael! Second robot entries for teams will open up after the end of "Regular Registration" on June 28th if slots are still available (Registration Fee: $250). We're making sure to give as many teams as possible the opportunity to play at TRR before opening it up to 2nd entries. :) Let me know if you have any additional questions!

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

You Know 418 will be there

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

Team 4063, TRikzR4kiDz just filled out the registration form and will me making the drive up from Del Rio.

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

Texas Torque will have a practice robot available for any pre-rookie team that wants to participate in Texas Robot Round-Up. It may not be as full-featured as the competition robot but it will definitely be more than just a drive chassis like last year. If slots open up because less than 40 teams sign-up, we would also be interested in giving a second drive team some time "on the sticks."

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

Jess,
we emailed AM about the transporting of robot from IRI to Austin, and are requesting FedEx shipping quotes from Hawaii to IRI and Austin to Hawaii.
We are also hopeful that either 148 or 118 may be able to help us just in case.
*keeping fingers crossed*

Once we get that info confirmed, we will sign up.
Airfares are running about $1050/person at the moment and hoping it doesnt get any higher.

Still working out the details for travel to IRI but I will let you know as soon as we know!

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

I'll have to ask our main teacher/mentor if we're gonna be able to go, it'd be awesome seeing all of you again!

You can find an updated team list here.

I previously neglected to mention that we are reserving two additional slots (for a total of 42 teams) for pre-rookie teams. These spaces might eventually be made available if they are not filled by pre-rookies. We have one pre-rookie forming in Austin this summer. Please let me know if you know of any potentially interested pre-rookie teams!

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

Glenn,

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help! We're presently at ~3/4 capacity after a flood of teams registered over the past 24 hours. Most of those teams are first time TRR competitors. We don't want to miss out on you guys coming down to TRR!

~Jess

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

Jess,
I'll probably sign up tomorrow when I get a chance, prior to any confirmed arrangements.

-Glenn

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

Geez! Guess I should have been a little less lazy in signing up. Well we are now registered and ready for some fun.

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

Heh! Added and listed above. You guys are fine. :) We do have 11 teams who competed at TRR last year who have yet to register, but I suspect we will have enough space for most teams who want to come. Just don't want to wait too long.

Now, hop on helping get our Hawaiian friends down to Texas from IRI! ;)

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

I will be flying in from NJ for the event. I loved being at the Alamo regional and can never get enough Texas. Wish I could bring 3314's robot there, but it won't fit in my suitcase. :) Neither will my drive team. Too much paperwork, and the *horror* of the extra baggage fees....

Re: 2013 Texas Robot Roundup
 

This event looks STACKED. I'd be interested to see the district system point list compared to whose attending. I'd say were pretty close to what the state championship would actually look like. Looks like fun.
