Beantown Blitz?
 

Hey,

It's two weeks away from the Beantown Blitz and I haven't seen any information about it. I signed up our team a few weeks ago, but I haven't seen a teamlist of who is going so I can confirm that we're in. Has anyone seen any information regarding this or other things like a schedule or load-in information? Thank you!

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

I know that confirmation emails were sent out a couple weeks ago, but other than that, I haven't seen anything.

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

I'll ping the guys.


edit:
Team List and info is being published tonight.

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

As much as my team loved Blitz last year, we're not going to be attending, as the change in date conflicted with too many other commitments our team members had.

However, if the rest of the list is correct (and my counting is good), then everyone will get to play in eliminations!

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

Where is that published?

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

You would think.. http://www.nutrons.com/beantownBlitz.html but I think I'm gonna have to smack the guy who told me that it would be published.

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

Same here, we loved the event but we couldn't make the date work for us. Hopefully next year we'll get to return to one of the coolest events in New England.

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

Is there a schedule anywhere yet? Pretty much I'm just looking for when pits open and when they close.

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

Pits open at 7:30am

They usually close at 6:00pm when the event is over.


Full schedule will be posted shortly.

Team 1511 is excited to return to Boston and compete! Any game mods?

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

Thanks!

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

Hey fellow Blitzers! (Is that a word?)

I will be hosting a NEMO meeting at the Blitz, 10:00-11:00 in the Club room, at the end of the arena over the load in ramp.

Need some ideas on how to grow your team? Fundraising issues? Lost a sponsor? Come get some suggestions on how to fill the voids. And updates on the YPP Program.

Re: Beantown Blitz?
 

1073 will be attending with a skeleton crew, as most of our team is away for the weekend. Is anyone interested in teaming up to scout? We use a tablet based system so all the data is uploaded online so anyone can view and manipulate the data.
