2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I just thought I would get this one started, since it is so much fun....
ISAAAAAACCCCCCCCCCCCCCC

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

You just gave 100's of people a heart attack.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

and it was soooo much fun!!!!!!!!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

HEART ATTACK. Don't do that to an old lady like me!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I figure the lists will be out soon, so we might as well roll with it!!!!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

i got my hopes up and now there down... thanks

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I can vouch for the heart attack, almost fell out of my chair as well.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

NEWTON!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

There we go!!!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Wow, scrambled over to check it out when I saw this thread started...well played, well played...

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

NEWTON! #shutemdown

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

some big name teams in this division:)

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

2 of last years champs in this division this year. As well as hopefully all 3 this year:D

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

The list is out!

The Pi-oneers are ready!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

We should make a list of FCS cyclers climbers dumpers and 7 point atonomous robots

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

2252 is ecstatic to be in Newton! See you guys there!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

217 as well I believe.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

and 303.

Who usually MCs and announces Newton?

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Add 303 to that list

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

They usually switch it up year to year. Although i think it's usually Mark? Don't quote me on that though.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

From what i've seen in the past, Mark does whatever field 254 is on, and dave does whatever field 67 is on.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

180

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Fondy Fire is ready to heat up the competition! Good luck everyone!!! So excited to be playing with so many friendly and awesome teams.

It also helps that I know 1114 and 2056 aren't in the same division, and neither are in our division. So hooray! And it's not Curie!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

The Flying Platypi are thrilled to be in Newton this year! Can't wait to see you guys there!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

STEMpunk 4531 is really excited!

We'll be seeing some familiar faces: 93 NEW Apple Corps, 2194 Fondy Fire, and 2826 WAVE Robotics. I can't wait!~

FRC 2789 is ready to shut Newton down. Let's get this party started!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

NEWTON!!!!!! Hey, 3137 Connetquot T-Birds and 353 Plainview-Old Bethpage POBots are in here with us!!!!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Did anyone see that 1986 is in Newton? And 1730 is looking forward to this match up!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Yes...I still don't want to believe that's true :rolleyes:

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

So does anyone want to put a paper together so we can jointly scout the division?

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Here is a Google Doc for Pit Scouting every team in the division.
It's a collaboration effort so please put in any information you have, but only if you know it's correct.
Hopefully this will make pit scouting 102 teams a little easier.
If you have any suggested changes please email or PM me.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Thanks joe! Ask and he shall receive!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Wait a minute! We did all right in 2010 together....

This is looking good....gonna be some good matches in Newton, and :ahh: WE'RE NOT IN CURIE AGAIN!!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

We did great in 2010! But we're afraid of you until you pick us! ;)

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

1410 is really looking forward to it :) Also, add us to the list of FCS. We'll also help out with the google doc as soon as we get access.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Joe, I am getting an access denied. Any way this is not public like the Archimedes doc?

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I got in and added, feel free to edit and put what our actual drive speed is, I know were fast but I can't remember what were geared for.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I just made a bobo at first not making stuff public, should be good now.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

This is absolutely glorious.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

$@#$@#$@#$@# i like you guys:D

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Can you put in a DPR column?

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Were with 1986 agian. Hope we get to play a match since we didnt see each other during regional play

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

These are just the teams in the Newton Division? How did you get this info?

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I believe Shaniqua has emceed Newton for the last few years.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Go to the FIRST site, FRC, Events, then Championship, and then teams attending. The complete list of teams will pop up. Dig over Divisions column label, and the list will regenerate into Divisions, with teams listed in numerical order.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

She definitely did last year. I don't know much about previous years but thats probably a safe bet.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

We are ready to compete with some legendary teams. NEWTON!!!!!!!!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

341 (with our new and improved shooter, shoulder joint, and 7-disc and midfield autonomous modes) is locked and loaded and ready to play on Newton :cool:

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

2826 Wave Robotics ready for glory!

Some new improvements for championships:

5 Disc from the center is down from both the side and center.
10 point climber has been added.
Wider Intake for Auto and Tele-Op.
New alignment device for the feeder station to increase disk scoring possibilities.

After two division finalists the last two years, we are very hungry for Einstein. I look forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

The hunger that comes after being eliminated in the division finals is NOT TO BE UNDERESTIMATED!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I agree, I really love your team and can't wait to see you again!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Thank you!!!!!!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

We are defiantly ready, we redesigned our shooter that was defiantly our biggest weakness at MSC. Hopefully it will work well as we want to. We were close to Einstein in 2011 and lost to the reining world champions last year on Galileo, hopefully we can get there.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Its great to be on the Newton field this year. Can't wait to see all these great teams all on one field!!!:)

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Look out for 4451. You should already know their strategy.
#SouthCarolinaStandUp

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

3997's new feeding mechanism is ready to compete with some of the big names, and hopefully make a name for ourselves!
100% 3 point autonomous around 4-6 trips of 4 with new feeder and 10 point hang, we're ready!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Y'all definitely did well at Alamo, I can't wait to see your improvements! 4063 (our alliance partners from both Alamo and Hub City) are helping us get a shooter going so that we can replace our dumper and put up 18 pts in autonomous before we go play defense...can't wait for champs!

Fun Fact: We played against 3997 in the Finals at Alamo, and we played against 1986 and 3931 in the finals at Hub City...and now we'll be seeing them on Newton!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Ack, didn't notice we didn't have a picture out there.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

now wait second they need to seen the California team 3476 before picking anybody hahahahah :yikes:

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

3339 will shoot some discs (new shooter) and will climb the pyramid to level 3

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

still need some pictures. Please share with everyone if you have them from prior regionals :) Thanks!

Take your pic :rolleyes:

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Darn, I've been keeping a close eye on this thread and didn't even notice that our picture was missing. :yikes:

I'll post the best picture I have for you when I get home from school today (our school laptops block flickr, where we store all of our photos on....yeah, seems a little inconvenient to me too :rolleyes:).

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Thank you very much!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

We're totally excited for Newton! We've put our best hacker on siphoning off data from websites, tabulating it, and putting it in a human-readable format. :cool: Well, he hasn't turned hacker yet -- but the way he flies around the Vision code, hooks up sockets manually, & creates his own python scripts, he's definitely on that path...

I don't know if we have any stills, other than a CAD I put up on my private facebook page in January -- but I did update our line in the google scouting doc with a video from Chesapeake. It'll mostly look the same, yet we've fixed the disc jamming.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Team 2389 is pumped up about Newton!!! Happy to see 1986 again! Good luck everyone

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Some data that i thought would be interesting was how many district/regional wins each team had along with whether they were a team captain, first pick, or second.

I made an excel file with this data paired with the data currently in the pit scouting file. This was done late last night and rather rushed so if anything is wrong please let me know.

If someone wants to add this to the current google doc that would be much appreciated.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Team 4476 is exited to be in Newton! After our success in GTR East with RAS, A Dean's list finalist, and semi-finalists with 3985 and 4718 (two rookies and a second year team) we are really pumped to be heading off to worlds! I have no doubt that our team will be inspired by all the good teams that will be competing with us.

For those interested in seeing our robot in action, here is a link.

See you on the field!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Sorry about those holes in your climbing hooks. Got a new batch of wheels? No fair using that new blocker to block us, or we'll take our stuff back.:D

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Wow! What a great resource, thanks! I'd love to add our info, can you post the link to the Google Doc?

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I added all of the info in the paper to the Google Doc, so you can just edit it on there. I also added a '2013 Record' column to input wins-losses-ties for teams.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

certainly, the doc is by 694. i'll be updating the data in it to my excel file periodically.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...vWnphT3c#gid=5

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Do you have a link to the rest of the pictures?

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I got all the other pictures by exporting the FRC tracker application pictures to an email.

It is very easy to do. The list I have above is all the robots that did not have pictures on the tracker already.
Give me your email and I will forward you the email I got from the tracker....it's a large email though.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

KnightKrawler is excited to be making its first appearance at the Championship. There will be a few familiar faces and so many new friends to be made! Good luck and we'll see you soon.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

2389 posted a pic in previous post. And Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.....:p

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

This is awesome! I need to track down a photo of our robot...

I think there should also be a max height column, especially for those of us who can expand from <30" to 64"!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Links to pictures have been added to the google doc

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Hope you can find a photo :) thanks for looking and posting if you find one :)

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Code Orange is very excited to be in the Newton division!

Last night we put together a robot reveal video for all the scouters. (Better late than never :D )

http://youtu.be/ZtiuyRPAeiE

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

There is a bad link for 1741 picture on the google doc it takes you to a pic of 1781...

EDIT: IGNORE THIS IM DUMB

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I am looking foward to champs. 25 is going back to its roots and will be playing more D on teams and scoring points our parnter can't score/ focus on. Auto climb and dump all the way.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I got some screen shots of 3280, 829 and 3802. Not great resolution but all I could find.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Would be nice if there was a shot/dump colored discs section in the google doc

Here a pictures of the Digital Goats from Smoky Mt. We have changed our shooter a little. It now shoots faster and farther.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Welcome, Team 2352, as the 100th team to the 2013 Newton Division!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Thanks, we just got the invite today.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Mentor of Team 4276 here, looking forward to meeting you all in Newton Division!
This will be my first time attending Championship (6th year mentoring + 2 years as student), really excited for next week!

With thousands of teams here, may end up being robot overload...

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Hundreds, not thousands*

*Well, of FRC teams at least...if you count FLL and FTC...then yeah, thousands ;)

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Yes, I was referring to the FTC and FLL teams as well :]
Aware there are *only* 400 FRC teams.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

FYI: We have changed our robot from an interior corner hanger to a passive hanger that shoots while hanging.
This is by the way the practice bot. The actual bot will be changed on Wednesday.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Newton, here we (Team 2252) come. I cannot wait to see all the great robots next week. I've been watching (online) them all all season, now it will be live.

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

I'm so excited SPAM is on Newton. I'm looking forward to seeing in person all these robots I'm pre-scouting.

Our robot looks a little different than it did in our reveal video. Our floor pick-up was removed, and our human loading was improved. We've refined our full-court shooting both in accuracy and speed. We can empty the alliance station of discs in under 50 seconds with no loss of accuracy. We're comfortable cycling to the pyramid or spotting up and shooting from anywhere else on the court.

I'm impressed with the quality of robots I see in the Newton field (especially you Michiganders... y'all are incredible). I disagree with the supposed "weakness" of Newton this year. This was said about Galileo last year, but Gali was able to put together some impressive alliances because of depth. I expect the same from Newton this year.

Best of luck, everyone!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

We are in the Newton Division along with our friends, the Holy Cows, team 1538.
Code Orange (from Orange County, California), FRC Team 3476, presents "Highlights" of our robot from our 2013 season at this YouTube link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fI0Oy8AiQU

We shoot our 3 starting discs into the 6 point goal in Autonomous. Then we can pick up 4 discs from the floor and shoot them also. Our 2-speed gear box allows us to both quickly move around and to push others when needed. Our 4 powerful shooter motors and fast aiming setup allow us to score discs from many positions. Watch this video and see how fast our human loader is and how we suck discs off the floor. We have a fast pre- or post-buzzer 10 point pneumatic hanger.
Our alliances in our second regional (Inland Empire) scored some of the highest match points in the country: 125, 147, 149, 153, 169.

We have a different video in the Robot Showcase thread at:

http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=116208

See you in St. Louis!!!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Team 1569 (Haywire) is incredibly excited to be in Newton this year!!! Can't wait to go out there and show everyone what we have, and to see all the other incredible robots :D
Less than five days remaining!!!

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

Here ya go! http://www.flickr.com/photos/team167...in/photostream

Re: 2013 Championship Newton Division
 

1538 is ready for Newton. Can't wait to play against some of the teams on this field.
