[NE FIRST] Connecticut Shoreline District (Groton)
 
Soon there will be a New England Forum, I just know it! And when that happens this thread will be moved there! I can see it now...

[wavy lines, harp music]

The Aluminum Falcons are stoked and running as hard as they can to make sure that the Groton event is going to be more than slightly Fantastic!

The school building has never hosted anything like it before, of course, and who knows what's going to happen.

On the roster so far:

178 2nd Law Enforcers, 1124 Uberbots, 175 Buzz
2067 Apple pi, 181 Birds of Prey, 278 GUS
558 Robosquad, 236 Techno-Ticks, 230 Gaelhawks
195 Cyberknights, 571 Paragon, 78 Air Strike
125 NU-TRONs, 155 Technonuts, 2170 Titanium Tomahawks
1099 DiscoTechs, 1991 Dragons, 1699 Robocats
237 Black Magic, 3718 Junkyard Battalion, 3182 Athena's Warriors
2836 Team Beta, 4055 NRG, 3719 STEM Whalers
3634 Hard Botties, 3654 Tech Tigers, 4557 Full Metal Falcons

I too am looking forward to this event!
I'm anxious to see how these smaller event turn out here in CT. Don't get me wrong, the Convention Center is nice and all, but I feel that the competition will now get more intense. Obviously you can't fit 80+ teams into a single school, so it will be significantly smaller; meaning, if teams do their scouting right they'll be able to know everything about all the other teams and the matches will be amazing!

Glad to see the CyberKnights in the line-up. 195 is one of the teams that will guarantee a 1st-rate competition.

Well, I'm no longer affiliated with the team, ergo I can't tell you what events they will or will not be attending simply because I do not know.
However, from my past experiences with them I can agree that they do bring some competition to these events.
But it all comes down to the game, design, (a little bit of luck), skill, and of course...proper scouting.

Completing the first 30 spaces are:
3555 Aluminati and 2064 Panther Project. Let's see what happens when the wait-list opens.

Here's an early draft of the main pit area, pending Fire Marshall approval. The "One Way" is specifically for robots going to and from competition.

Wow this competition is really heating up, this reminds me of the CT Regional except maybe with even more top rate teams, it seems like every match will feel like an elimination! Especially since this will be most teams first competition and strategies will still be being developed for the game I'm excited to see how this all plays out

The teams in RI have almost doubled in the last week (from 5 to 9)...this team being one of them. No idea really behind the sudden increase. I did immediately notice their name being similar to another team's name, though! ;)
