We are planning for and have space for 54, my guess is that it's just an artifact of the registration/payment/confirmation/decline process.

I'm bringing some spare 4-inch white gaffers tape, just in case.... :)

I'm pretty sure the deadline to register is tonight at 5. My guess is the necessary backup teams have already been notified and will start being added to the list once 5 pm passes.

It's a nail-biter, for sure.

I'm assuming 6 teams have dropped and some haven't even decided, due to the fact that we were notified that were next up in line for being called off the wait list. (Crossing our fingers, because we already have hotel, transportation, etc. all planned out)

Team 2168 will have a display of the upcoming, 2015-season control system.

Check out the table, with our 2013 robot, Phoenix, retro equipped with it's new controls. General info with facts and FAQs will be on posters at the display.

We are still kind of a small team, so our lead mentor on the Alpha Testing Project will be kept busy with the never-ending task of improving the code on our current robot.

We do plan to have the table staffed when possible, but until we know our match schedule, it's hard to know when exactly that will be.

If you have burning questions, drop by the 2168 Pit and ask for Kevin Harrilal (mentor) or Vittorio (student), our leads in the project.

We will also have a question box for you to drop in your questions when the table is left unstaffed. We will get back to you ASAP.

Best luck to all teams. Dang! Is load-in tomorrow?

1699 were on the list….then an hour later were off the list :confused: Bummer. Anyone know if they are going?

We're at 52 teams, 2 more slots to fill. Looks like 3323 and 1099 are next up to accept or decline.

Now at 53 teams with 3323 added to the attendee list.

Re: [NE FIRST] 2014 New England Championship!
 
Due to Samwaldo's post above, looks like 1099 will round out the field of 54.

So is there a final list of the 54 Teams up yet?

4761 checking in!

We have a few robot upgrades since RI and NU :D
  • 2.5 times faster intake roller (installed at NU)
  • Dump assist belt to make us more compatible with taller robots (We can now dump where a human player typically would)
  • 50% faster arm and basket movements
  • Hot zone detector (125 style)
  • Motor support upgrades to even out loads and prevent the jam that hurt us at NU Saturday morning

We look forward to playing with such an excellent field of alliance partners.

Looks like we're still waiting on one more. I think it's going to be 1099.
