Re: Boston Regional 2013
Now that is a great list of teams! It should be some very difficult competition in Boston this year.
|
Re: Boston Regional 2013
From release videos, and other regionals, its looking like alot of 30 point climbers will be present! Hopefully most will be tested and modified from past regionals, and alot will be seen making it to the top. Also i hope alot of climbers, doesn't mean alot of falls.
Team 1099 will be seen on the ground (with a 10 point hang of course) picking discs up and shooting. Sidenote: On FIRSTs website it says 716 will not be attending??? |

Re: Boston Regional 2013
The NUTRONs and Ask An Engineer are proud to announce there WILL be a machine shop at this year's Boston Regional. Unfortunately the NASA shop will not be in town this year, but we have managed to put together a good alternative.
The shop will have basic to mid-level machining functionality. Things like band saws, chop saws, sanders, grinders and benchtop machine equipment (mills and lathes). We will be able to modify or build many parts. We unfortunately will not have welding capability this year. This year's shop will be run completely by volunteers from the NUTRONs and our Ask an Engineer program, so we do ask for your patience ahead of time. We put a request out only a couple weeks ago for teams to pool equipment to make this happen, and received many responses! This is a community problem, and we are happy to be apart of the communities solution to it. We will see everyone tomorrow! -Brando |
Re: Boston Regional 2013
Thanks Brandon, we'll be glad to have some on-site capabilities at the event. Everyone should also remember that one of our sponsors, Artisan's Asylum, is going to be providing all additional services for teams that require more advanced work, such as welding. We'll have a dedicated courier able to run parts (and robots if necessary) back and forth to Artisan's Asylum's workshop across the river, and a Skype connection to communicate with the machinists and welders over there. We'll make sure everyone's robots are working great!

Re: Boston Regional 2013
Lots of fresh robots.
Funky Monkey debut. Nutrons second attempt at a win. HYPER, TJ squared, Gael Force, OverClocked, Brazillians! T-Hawks, Rolling Thunder, Alaskans! (Not sure if they're gonna make it) Ligerbots, IgKnighters, Three Rookies, Robot Unicorn Attack! Too many to mention. Let's make this Regional pop!

Re: Boston Regional 2013
Sadly, the Alaskans didn't make it. I was sad to see an empty pit today.
Way more corner climbers than I have seen at the other competitions. If half of them are effective it will be an interesting alliance selection. |

Re: Boston Regional 2013
Big congrats to 125, 126, and 1511 on a really exciting final and victory!

Re: Boston Regional 2013
Great job 125! Maybe this year we will be on the same field in St Louis..
|
Re: Boston Regional 2013
I'm exhausted, in a good way.
Every Regional begins and you wonder how it will develop and will it be exciting. This one was. Congrats to the aforementioned 125 NUTRONs, 126 Gael Force, and 1511 Rolling Thunder on their championship. The semifinals were hot, with 1100 the T-Hawks, blocking 3173 the IgKnighters FCS with resounding cracks. 3173 at one point knocked their blocker off. 3780 Robot Unicorn Attack surprisingly found themselves as the 5th seed and did a great job scouting to get two steals in 229 Division by Zero and 1153 the Robo-Rebels. 3780 had a relatively simple Robot that dumped in the 1-point goal. They benefitted from a favorable match schedule and picked brilliantly, getting two great late improving shooters while they played essential defense to take them to the semifinals, losing by less than 10 points in each match. Oh, for the want of a climb, the match was lost. Gael Force is back in the house with their first Regional win in four years and taking home the RCA. They and the NUTRONs would do their 10 point climb that engaged after the Buzzer sounded. (Five Second Rule) Rolling Thunder got their first win since 2005 to go along with the GP award (also at FLR) and the IS award. 846 The Funky Monkeys, all the way from San Jose, got their ticket to St. Louis punched with the EI award. In the Eliminations, they gave up on shooting and spent the entire match protecting 3173 in the corner with their FCS, more than once pushing Rolling Thunder all the way across the field. It almost worked. I think their shooter was actually broken. 88 managed the Wombo Combo Slamma Jamma with a 30 point climb and four disc dump in their final match. 846 has yet to win a Regional in 11 years, hopefully it will happen at SVR. Monkey Poofs anyone? The lesson is that for a FCS to win at the remaining Regionals and Championships, they're gonna need a great defensive bot with good traction. They were beaten by two great cyclers. Time will tell if an FCS can beat rapid cyclers. Start scouting. The Cyber Gnomes came all the way from Ontario, not to escape the cold but those BFFs in Toronto. ;) They have had some transitions to make with the Ontario teachers action and had a list of sponsors from their community of Clearview Township that surely would violate the FMS bandwidth limit. They build their Robot at JT Snowmobile Shop and their robot includes snowmobile parts. Probably not COTS in Florida, but here in the Northeast? Sure. Hopefully 2013 will get a win in 2013 next week at GTR West. When they are fully functional, they can shoot and climb with the best. 383, The Brazilian Machine were back in Boston and were on their game by the end. IMHO, they were overlooked in the Alliance Selections. They should fare better in DC next weekend. I would say the same for 23 PNTA. Good shooting and climbing. A shame that they won't have a second regional to improve in. 3236 TriForce had the most entertaining climb, I think they made 30 points once or twice. In it's early climbs it was doing pull-ups, up, and down, and up, and down. Then they finally got in their groove and would climb to the top, only to fall to the floor (once landing on 23), Then they would rush back to the lowest rung for a 10 point climb. They had these round lead sinker weights on their robot that looked like truck nuts. When they fell, the weights would fly off in all directions making the audience think that they had broken many parts Gracious Professionalism was evident all around. The best example was when 88 fell from the top with a crash and silenced the crowd. By the time they got back to their pit, dozens of teams were waiting to offer their assistance. I will post some videos shortly including one of the weirdest climbers you will ever see from 2084 Robotsbythe-C, a greatly improved 3958 Schrodinger's Cat, whose mentor Joe Johnson has been in FIRST forever, won the WFFA. Thank you to all of the volunteers, judges, and teams. Kudos to the GDC. |

When all was said and done at the end of quals, we were ranked outside the top 8 due to a rough Saturday morning. We accepted 3780's invitation, and immediately sent our scouters with whiteboards and tablets as close to the field as possible. 3780 was excellent in allowing us to pick anyone we wanted, and when it came back to us in the second round, we knew we needed 1153. We had been watching them all weekend, and their strokes of brilliance in a few key matches made them very attractive, even though their rank was surprisingly low. During lunch we worked quickly and carefully to spruce up 3780's drivetrain (did I mention how willing they were to let us do anything we felt necessary to succeed!?) to play defense while we kept a close eye on both 229 and 1153, getting them ready for what we hoped would be an offensive onslaught. In QF 1 and 2 we put up 140 points, and that was with only 2 robots scoring in autonomous and 1 or 2 robots hanging at the end. We looked to improve further for the semis, but a dead battery in 1153 in one match and a jammed frisbee in the other seemed to seal the deal for the #1 alliance. |

Congratulations to Team 125, I saw them in Orlando, and I'm happy they got a victory here, as they have a great robot!
Also, a huge congratulations to team 126 Gael Force! The Champions Chairman combo must be awesome! Second year in a row that Boston has had a Champion Chairman too. Job well done! |

Re: Boston Regional 2013
Thanks to everyone who has congratulated us on our win! We were really driven after our tough loss down in Orlando 2 weeks ago. This event was especially challenging for us with how involved our team was in other things happening at the regional (webcast, machine shop, team assistance, etc). On top of that, we had a backup drive team running through all of qualifications on Friday, and they did remarkably well.
A huge thank you to our partners, teams 126 and 1511. It was a huge joy for our team to win the event with our old friends on team 126. Being able to pick up 1511 with the last choice was a shock and pleasant surprise for our alliance. They complimented our alliance wonderfully, and were amazing against the fantastic 3173 alliance in the finals. A massive tip of our cap to our opponents in the finals, teams 3173, 846 and 88 formed a great alliance and really made us work hard at the end. Playing against a deadly full court shooter like 3173 is not an easy task... As always, we had a great time at the Boston Regional. We are scrambling the jets for a trip to St. Louis while we continue to rev up for the Maine Regional in 2 weeks! -Brando |
Re: Boston Regional 2013
What a fantastic weekend!
Admittedly, FRC 3780 was not at all expecting to be making eliminations when we first walked into Agganis Arena on Thursday. Our team has definitely had our ups and downs in the past years, and because our mentor lives in New Hampshire, Oliver Graff and myself have had to step up to the plate as co-captains in order to ensure that our team has moved in the right direction. So, it would be accurate to say that this year's regional introduced us to many unfamiliar aspects of FRC competition. Nonetheless, it would additionally be accurate to say that many of those unfamiliar aspects made for an outstanding experience. Our favorable match-ups in the qualification round landed us in eliminations as the #5 seeded alliance, and although we didn't begin our scouting until a couple hours before eliminations, we were ecstatic to end up with teams 229 and 1153. BIG shout outs to teams 125 and 1511 for being incredibly helpful in quickly teaching us the basics in how to approach our scouting strategy. After 229 accepted our offer in a grateful (gracious) manner, we both were crossing our fingers that 1153 would remain available come our second pick. Working with both of your teams was the highlight of our week. You both have incredible talent, and we hope that you enjoyed being a part of the same alliance as much as we did. Additionally, you both were fantastic in how flexible you were with our "budget bot". Both of your teams, without complaint, were phenomenal in quickly working on and fixing up our bot before each match, whether it was a quick battery mount solution, or toying with the drive train. Thank you for being so graciously professional. I can speak for the entire team in saying that your support was inspiring and essential. I also wanted to personally thank everyone for tolerating my flamboyant unicorn costume. It was interesting, to say the least, to witness some of your reactions, all of which were greatly appreciated. Thank you to the entire event staff, Boston University, all of the mentors, all of the sponsors, and everyone who made the event possible. We hope you all enjoyed the "super sparkly rainbow $wag", and hope to see you all soon at the event next year! |

Re: Boston Regional 2013
Team 846 had a wonderful time at the Boston Regional. Every year, we attend an away event (generally on the East Coast) and Silicon Valley Regional, which gives us a chance to travel to cool places and compete with different teams.
This event definitely ranks as the best in recent memory for us. Boston Regional was an incredibly well run event, and the volunteers, field staff, judges, and event coordinators were absolutely phenomenal. Especially the queue staff, who dealt with us always just barely slipping in on time; thank you for putting up with us. Also, the MC's made every match interesting, and we loved your introductions during the finals as well as those funny award poem (bunch of rhyming words) announcements. You guys are cool. We felt welcomed by everyone both at the event as well as everywhere in Boston, and that was special. Thank you all so much. Over the course of the event, we managed to go from a complete overhaul of our machine to scoring all of our autonomous discs and 3+ loads of four frisbees in the top goal by the end of the qualification matches. We were incredibly fortunate to be ranked 3rd and select our incredible alliance partners, 3173 and 88. 3173 is a monster scorer from the feeder station, and we were stoked to be able to pick you guys and planned to pick up whatever you missed on the floor and score those discs. We did not expect 88 to slip to us, but when they did we were incredibly happy to be able to select you, as an outstanding climber. Of course, the eliminations did not play out as many people expected; here's the explanation. Our robot experienced significant electrical and CAN issues, which deprived us of the ability to use our ground pickup and eventually our shooter. We manage to smoke a drive CIM, which almost removed the last thing we had - our drivetrain, which is geared for 15.7 ft/sec. So, we switched to keeping 3173's path clear, countering the defense played by 1100 and 1511. We had never played defense before. In doing so, we played our first finals matches at a regional in our team's history, as 3173 just kept pumping those frisbees in and 88 got that spectacular 50 pt climb/dump on. Thank you guys for helping us get so far. Hopefully we will have our issues resolved by SVR; we ripped off the suspect components of our robot and are debugging as I type this. We were also very honored that the judges acknowledged our efforts to generate excitement about FIRST with the Engineering Inspiration Award. Our web team wants to see even more views on BecauseRobots.org, so make sure to visit and possibly submit a photo of yourself for the banner telling us why you think robots are cool! Thanks for a great time, Boston. Congratulations to 125, 126, and 1511 on a well deserved victory. We were honored to shake your hands and be on the other side of the glass. We hope to see you all in St. Louis, though we are still debating on whether we can attend. |

Re: Boston Regional 2013
Hi everyone,
On behalf of the planning committee, I hope you all had an absolute blast, because we sure did. We put in a lot of effort starting in September to make this event happen, and seeing the energy, excitement, and flat out incredible robots reminds us why we do this. I was so impressed with the quality of play, the GP of every team, and the spirit you all showed. Well done, and thank you for helping to make Boston awesome! Thanks also for your kind words on here. I always love to pass them along to our committee and volunteers. We really do appreciate feedback (good or bad!). One quick thing, an email regarding lost and found went out from Steve Cremer this morning. There are a number of items missing and we would appreciate it if you could look through your packed up equipment to see if something mistakenly worked its way into your pit and home with you. In particular, one of our VIPs (a dean at BU) had someone accidentally take home his coat instead of their own, so we would really like to find out where that swap happened and get coats back to their rightful owners. Please, if anyone on here was or knows anyone who was at the VIP luncheon, double-check to make sure your coat is actually yours! And on a personal note, as was announced Saturday afternoon, for personal logistical reasons involving a few upcoming intercontinental moves, this was my last year as part of the Boston Regional Planning Committee. I was a founding member of the committee in 2006 and have been President for five years. I admit that usually around early March each year I'm questioning why I volunteer to do this -- it becomes basically a second full time job for several months and by March I'm pretty stressed out -- but during this particular event, I had several very poignant reminders. As the opening chords of "Thunderstruck" started on Friday morning for opening ceremonies and everyone started yelling and cheering. As Eric relayed the GP tale of TJ^2's fall. The incredible excitement of the finals that had me jumping out of my seat behind the scoring table and screaming along with everyone else. The brilliant smiles (and sometimes tears!) on teams' faces as they came through the award lines. The outstanding group of volunteers that make Boston go, whom I have been privileged to get to know over the past years. It has been an incredible, rewarding, humbling experience to be a part of the Boston Regional, and I can't thank all of you enough for being a part of our event and making it worth every bit of stress. I will miss it. |

Re: Boston Regional 2013
As a college student, it's always fun when I'm able to meet up with my old team when they compete on the East Coast. Boston was a fantastic experience for 846 all around, but I was extremely impressed by all the volunteers and other teams who make this regional happen. Everyone in Boston was just so incredibly nice, gracious, accommodating, and hard-working! The energy at the competition was infectious - from the judges to the pit admin staff, from the MCs to the announcers, and all other volunteers in between, we were all grateful to compete at such an exciting event. Agganis was rocking every day, largely due to the quality of all teams there. Great display of the various strategies of play in this year's game, in addition to many different types of robots. Thanks again to everyone for welcoming the Funky Monkeys to such an awesome event!

3236 falls on us around 7:05. The other times with high activity around the robot are when our shooter arm got bent during a climb (happened twice), and when we were troubleshooting our pneumatic system/indexer.

There is also a section of the video missing because the extension cord was needed for a sawzall. The laptop in question has approx 5 minutes of battery life.
I still need to try different setting for the video, but overall there are more than 12000 frames in the timelapse. The bright spot over the field on Saturday is the end of 125's stupendously bright led sign. |
Re: Boston Regional 2013
Working with 125 and 126 was a dream come true and a very rewarding experience. Working with such talented drivers and coaches will have a lasting impact on our team. Every round was exhilarating to watch and fun to be a part of. We are going to come to Champs with an even more consistent climber with an autonomous mode and maybe some other surprises. I would love an opportunity to work with either of our alliance partners again. Best of luck to all moving forward!!!
Does anyone know if 3173 qualified for Champs? They really really deserve the spot! |

We did not qualify for CMP, the wild card spot must be created at a prior regional. Simply qualifying in the same event twice does not do it.

If you want any of these clean versions (ie no copyright) or with changes for press releases or anything, just let me know. Unfortunately I was trying out some new settings and made the mistake of not looking at the photos on anything other than my LCD before the event was over, so I had some settings issues that caused this to not be my best set. There are still some decent photos, but a lot aren't as "crisp" as I would have liked and they took a lot more fighting with to cleanup in a lot of cases. I've got my fingers crossed that CT worked out better! I'm finding just like engineering, there are plenty of ways to "fail" in photography... and they are certainly great lessons for next time!! |
