Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

Brandon just told me 2495 is also registered!

Hallelujah!

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

Still only 38 teams officially registered, and none ranked beneath 55 on MAR standings. We have four confirmed/semi-confirmed declines so far, and if the #55 team (2495) was invited, there's at least one more decline out there. Curious if the rest of the teams are simply not registered yet, or if there are more declines.

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

I can confirm that 341 will not be competing at the MAR Championship this weekend due in part to the logistics of moving our robot, competition equipment and team from Vegas back to PA in ~3 days.

That being said, many team members are planning on making the trip up to Lehigh (myself included) to volunteer and to support our WFFA and DLA entries.

For those of you who have not yet been invited but are close to the cutoff (it's moving towards higher and higher ranks) be patient. Odds are, that ~10-15 teams will decline their spot to the MAR Championship when all is said and done.

file updated again, 44 teams registered, Rank 57 is lowest ranked team attending so far

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

40 teams now. Robbe just registered.

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

Yup, team 56 is in. I think a few teams are in the same boat as us - we were planning on attending all along, it's just been a crazy couple of days trying to coordinate payments and confirmations between the school, MAR and FIRST. It took this long for us to get the paperwork done. There may be a couple more "unregistered" teams going through the same.

Pro-tip: Always be very, very nice to the administrative assistants at your school. You never know when you'll need to call in a favor, and they are the best (sometime only) ones who can get this sort of thing done quickly.

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

Just heard the news that 4460 is in and probably the 50th team!
The question is who are the 10 declines. I expect another of my teams, 1495 declined due to funding. With 25, 341, 365, 2016, who are the other 5?

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

Well, assuming 4460 is #50, here are the 10 gap teams. 5 should be registered and the other 5 presumably declined. Any insider info?

303
2539
219
1881
4361
3123
136
1647
1807
555

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

Very happy to hear about 4460 making it to the Regional Championship this year. Even as far back as last fall's Duel on the Delaware, they looked like a pretty talented rookie team (with a pretty talented mentor team as well).

Very sorry to hear about 1495, who was very under-the-radar, but still managed to finish in the top half of a stacked Hatboro-Horsham event, then went on to be 341 and 225's partner on the winning alliance at Chestnut Hill... a very simple, but extremely consistent and effective machine. I can't wait to see them at district events again next year.

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

The last I heard when I left Bridgewater-Raritan Sunday was that 303 was planning on attending. That is about all I can say with any confidence at this point.

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

As of tonight, 44 teams have fully registered. I've updated my form and attached it. I'm a little surprised nobody noticed that I had completely missed two teams. :o

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

The teams out of the top 60 that have not yet shown up on the usfirst page are:
341, 365, 303, 2016, 2539, 25, 219, 1495, 1881, 4361, 136, 3123, 1647, 555, 1807, 4460

It looks like 42 MAR points is going to be this year's cutoff (currently). The next three teams on deck are 1168, 1923, 3151 (according to my numbers, which may differ from MAR's because I'm too tired to check right now) with 41 MAR points.

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

Tie-breaks applied?

For those who have the time, the event may still be looking for volunteers.

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

Nope. But they are the only three I have listed with 41 points and the latest batch of teams registering was at the 42 point level.

Re: 2013 MAR Standings
 

1923 is registered.
