Prepare for the earth to be scorched. Many declines coming.

Edit: I stand corrected...

Re: 2016 Duluth Regional Discussion
 

I guess someone did their homework, but 5172 was the best team there. I still can't believe we were able to pull out the win. It was a great event and 2502 had a blast. Thanks to all the wonderful volunteers for making this a great event.

Re: 2016 Duluth Regional Discussion
 

My predictions were a lot closer on the Northern Lights side of things. Not terrible considering I hadn't seen most of the teams!

Re: 2016 Duluth Regional Discussion
 

Team 2499 had a lot of issues this year with our robot, but it was still a lot of fun. Quals match 64 was especially rough for us because our entire alliance lost communication with their robots so we just sat there unable to do anything. We had a couple other communication issues that made our robot disconnect and in one match someone on our team put in a dead battery when we told him to change it (:mad:). We did have some matches where it was working though, and those were definitely a lot of fun. Everyone did a great job today and it was a really exciting competition. Congrats to Denfeld, the Hawaiian Kids, Mystery Machine, Crimson Robotics, Patriotics, and everyone else who competed. :)

On behalf of 2502, thank you to all the volunteers, referees, mentors, inspectors and all others that helped with the Northern Lights and Lake Superior Regionals. Special shout out to 2883 (F.R.E.D) and 5232 (Talons), our alliance partners. Good job 5172 (Gators) for their worlds qualification and 3132 (Thunder Down Under) for winning chairmans.

Congrats to Team 4009, 359, and 6175 for winning the Lake Superior regional! You guys were putting up some big points throughout the tournament. Big shoutout to our alliance partners 5690 and 2227! It was certainly a wild ride to the finals for our alliance. Also congrats to team 2526 for winning chairman's at lake superior and to team 4009 DNA for winning Engineering Inspiration! (thanks for the wildcard DNA!) Also huge shoutout to team 4607 CIS, you guys nearly knocked us out of the quarterfinals and honestly it could of gone either way with your killer defense- I wish you guys luck at North Star!

Congrats to 2883, 2502, and 5232 for winning the Northern Lights regional and the double deccer! I'm super happy to hear that 2883 won their first regional.. well deserved for sure FRED! As for 2502, I'm not surprised that they won at Northern Lights- they have a beast of a robot and I can't wait until we get to compete with them at 10,000 lakes! Also super glad to hear that 5172 the gators got a wildcard from 2502, I can't wait to see them at champs and at state cause I've been hearing nothing but good things their team/robot.

Overall thanks to the volunteers, inspectors, referees, judges, etc. who helped put up 2 great events! I'm sad this was my last time going up to the Decc as a student on a team, but I'll be back next year as a volunteer :o

Re: 2016 Duluth Regional Discussion
 

I would like to thank the organizers and volunteers for this great event the competition was great and the overall atmosphere this year was out of this world. Special shout out to team 2502 and 5232 for being a part of our alliance. 2502's bot was an animal it shot the lights out in playoffs. I would not be surprised to see them win another regional this season. 5232 I felt was a steal for a third pick as they were a great defense breaker.
Also congratulations goes out to the Gators 5172, all I can say is wow what a shooter going to be fun playing at the next 3 events.
Nice job 2512 on the robot but also the amount of work your team does to put this event on.
Events like this will surely keep moving Minnesota to becoming the not just the State of Hockey but perhaps the State of Robotics.
Thanks again to everyone and we hope to see you at Iowa, Worlds, or State.

We had an amazing time at the Laker Superior Regional in Duluth finishing 3rd during elims. Thank you Plaid Pillagers (2538) and STEMpunk (4531) for being amazing partners in eliminations, so happy we got to compete alongside two amazing teams :)

Shoutout to KnightKrawler (2052) for being so graciously professional. After our first semi final round the arm on our robot had a catastrophic failure which caused us to lose control of our arm. KnightKrawler rushed over offering to help, even trying to use their timeout to buy us more time to fix the robot. Thank you so much that meant a lot to us :)

Re: 2016 Duluth Regional Discussion
 

The event was a blast to do, and I had a huge amount of fun. Even though we didn't win, we'll push forward and try to do fantastic in the Iowa Regional. Congratulations to 2883, 2502, and 5232 for winning Northern Lights, and we look forward to competing against 2883 and 5172 again in Iowa.
