Robokong is hitching up the trailer and moving to Vegas Wednesday morning. There will be some Code Orange magic on board for the trip. Looking forward to our first out of state regional.

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

We are looking forward to competing with all of the great teams at the Las Vegas Regional.

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

I just wanted to extend the invitation here for teams to join us for The Chairman's Exchange (www.fusd1robotics.org/chex) on Thursday during lunch.

It will be another great opportunity for teams to practice their presentations and collaborate before the official presentations on Friday.

Let me know if your team is interested by PMing me or just visiting us in the pits Thursday morning!

2486 can't wait for the regional!!

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

Van loaded. Leaving tomorrow at lunch.

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

Trailer loaded, check, truck fueled up, check, alarm set, check. Team Tators will be up before the sun to get to Las Vegas and have some fun. We look forward to seeing some old friends and making some new friends. Good luck to all.

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

Well, half the team's already there. Just can't wait to start competing, meeting, and helping all the teams there. Good luck every team!

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

Team 4276 had a great time in Vegas. We'd like to thank all of our alliance partners (hope you like the badges) for helping us through what was a highly competitive an challenging weekend.

We'd especially like to thank the Friarbots (Team 3309) and the Clockwork Oranges (Team 4322) for choosing us as their alliance partners in the quarterfinals! I liked seeing an all Orange County alliance!

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

How about all those delays and restarts in Semis 2 though? It felt like an hour just for that match alone...

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

987 would like to thank our good friends on 2485 for inviting us to join the number one seed along with another great team, 2478. We had a blast working with our Warlord buddies and hope we are lucky enough to do the same in St. Louis. This win was especially sweet given the incredibly tough defense teams had to battle throughout the event. Haven't seen such brutal contact since 2007 and just glad our roller damage from our last qual was an easy fix. We are taking several replacement parts to Champs sure;)

Kudos to 1717, 3476 and 687 for putting up one heck of a tough fight both finals matches. Congrats to 1515 for the RCA, 1266 for the IE and all of the other teams that won awards and the rest of the teams that made this a great 10th year anniversary. Special thanks to teams like 585 manning the safety glasses posts and 4792 for helping to put up and taking down the field and any other teams that contributed any volunteers throughout the event. Thanks to 2122 for archiving the matches that will hopefully be shared soon:) Best of luck to all teams advancing to Champs!

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

I believe it was close to an hour. I don't ever remember seeing 2 alliances play 6 matches back to back...:(

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

I would like to personally thank all the Vegas crew and teams for making this an awesome event, the first non-CA regional I have attended and volunteered at. There was a lot of crazy matches and the finals were down to the wire.

2485 had an amazing time and a lot of fun, and big thanks to our partners 987 and 2478 for the big win and the #bloobanerz! The last matches against 1717, 3476 and 687 were intense. I also got a bunch of pictures from the event I will post here soon.

Hopefully see you all at champs!

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

I didn't get a close look at the damage, but I'm glad you guys were able to get it repaired. Congratulations to 2485, 987, and 2478 on the win!

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

I remember some hammering before those matches....

We broke a support on our catcher and had to patch that up real quick. There was brutal contact in these matches.

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

I'd like to see a public report on what exactly was happening. I assume it was a field fault of some sort.

In the end, an alliance won 2 of 3 officially counted matches, and went on.

Re: 2014 Las Vegas Regional
 

Yes, someone from that semifinals matchup please do enlighten us about what happened. We noticed 1717's inactivity during a couple autonomous modes and then a field fault when multiple robots became disabled, but the field seemed to be working fine the entire rest of the weekend (I recall 2 makeup games Saturday)

This is what we were watching in the stand for about an hour:
