Hehehe.


Also just worth noting since it keeps coming up.
The 7 teams in Michigan are all relatively close together--within an hour of each other near Detroit; Save for the outlier of team 3620 in the Southwestern side. I'll be interested in seeing how teams in the upper peninsula adapt to the change, or if any of the teams from under the bridge can make it up to some offseason events up there.

Team 868 is in for beta testing.

Part of the considerations for our team were at least based on a couple of things.
368 pointed out that our Control Systems person is a CSA.
The other was input given on behalf of our team and others in Hawaii from our Regional Director, when he was asked by FIRST.

Do you have a source for this? I don't recall this criteria being listed in any documents over the years.

How many MAR teams applied? Last year's beta test only had barely more applicants then number of teams accepted, and 11 was the only MAR team. Maybe that means MAR teams aren't interested in beta testing?

I can't speak for other MAR teams but 1923 did apply. So there were at least two.

IIRC, Team 2600 and Team 4454 were also beta testers last year

341 applied and was not selected.

Have the languages been removed from the map? I recall them being there this morning.

We did not apply. Not a great year for this for us, with 35% of our students graduating, including our expert in this area.

Yup, they were there earlier but aren't now.
I also can't find Cheezy Poofs on the map.

254 and 971 have been accepted as a joint application.

It seems like many of the teams chosen have strong track records, indicated by chairman's awards, EI, Rookie inspiration, and/or Rookie all star awards. If I was FIRST, I'd choose teams with strong track records, but at the same time, saying "We’re grateful for your interest and commitment to FIRST, and we hope that you don’t infer this to be a reflection on your team’s strength." may not be entirely truthful. However, being rejected this time around for the beta test motivates me to do better this upcoming year on the field and off the field. Congrats to all of the teams selected to participate in the beta test, and good luck!

This was stated at the info panel for the new control system at Championship.
