I've uploaded videos to youtube of all the qual and elimination matches we played, except one where I was taking pictures instead of video recording. Playlist here.

The TigerTronics, Team 2053 had a great time in Richmond again this year. Everyone is so friendly in Virginia. We came back to snow flurries and 26 degrees in NY! Thank you to teams 3939 and 422 for inviting us to your alliance. We will definitely be back next year!

Re: 2014 Virginia Regional
 

First of all, what an incredible event the Virginia Regional was! The volunteers, especially the field crew, were very good. Field resets were smooth, yet teams were never rushed off the field like I've seen done many times before to start a match quicker. The referees were simply great as well. They took the time to get it right, even checking for buttons before every match, something I hadn't seen before at an event. While adhering to the rules, they were still very helpful, not bothered, if you had a question for them.

As for the teams, we couldn't have hoped for more. It was incredible to feel at home amongst all of these teams that we had never met before. Everyone was so cooperative and match planning was very enjoyable.

Thank you Virginia FIRST for putting on such a wonderful and well-run 15th anniversary event. It was awesome.

I'd also like to thank our opposing alliance in the finals, lead by 1418 with 2383 and 435, as well as all of the opposing alliances for a very close race for the win. Seeing scores in the 200's I knew it was going to be a brutal eliminations. It was incredibly tough play with many strong alliances and tough defense all around.

As for our eliminations alliance, working with 384 and 1610 was some of the best FRC experience I've had in my (albeit small) 3 years. Thanks for accepting our pick Sparky; I was hoping to be able to ask you guys, but with the final push for assist points in the last few matches of the top ranked teams I wasn't sure it was going to happen. Of course a big thank you to 1610 for your great performance in our matches as well. You guys were great to work with. I really hope I'm able to see you all again in St. Louis.

Does anyone have video of the closing ceremony?

Re: 2014 Virginia Regional
 

Fixed that for you.

groger pls

Re: 2014 Virginia Regional
 

Just for reference and to elaborate, is anyone planning on uploading/is there a location to find a recording of most or even all of the event?

Re: 2014 Virginia Regional
 

We are working on that.

Re: 2014 Virginia Regional
 

We got pretty good coverage of the event, probably missing a few matches(I was told we missed none but we'll see...) and bits of awards. They're ever so slowly making their way from my computer to the team's youtube account and expect them to be uploaded sometime tomorrow. We'll have some students work on titling and publishing them to the public shortly thereafter(and adding to TBA).

Re: 2014 Virginia Regional
 

I would also like to put in my thanks to those who help run the event. This VA Regional was by far the smoothest I've been to. The volunteers did a great job and everybody had a great time.

It is obvious by watching the elimination rounds that the quality of the VA teams is definitely on the rise. Congrats to both 384 and 1610 on your win and to 2607 for leading up that great alliance, we hope you travel down from PA to play with us again in the future.

Congrats to 422 on your Chairman's award win, it is much deserved. Hopefully we will earn our way to St. Louis so we can see you again this season.

Believe me, you didn't let us down. We missed our last shot that would have put the match away even with the penalty. We had a great alliance, and if I am correct had the highest unpenalized score of the regional at 195. We enjoyed working with both you and 1533 and would love to do it again in the future.

Re: 2014 Virginia Regional
 

Team Blue Cheese would like to congratulate all the winners from last weekends event. The level of competition in VA is improving yearly. If you aren't moving forward you are falling behind.

Re: 2014 Virginia Regional
 

I recorded elimination matches from the webcast, they're pretty crappy quality, but better than nothing.
Playlist.

Re: 2014 Virginia Regional
 

Is it just me or is f1m2 video of the field reset?

Re: 2014 Virginia Regional
 

I believe that our team has full-field video recorded of all qualification and elimination matches, and probably of the award ceremonies, too. Only the first three qualification matches are currently available on our YouTube channel, but hopefully more will show up over the next few days. Search YouTube for the channel called "Triple Helix 2363".
