Sac Regional is less than a week away
 

Just want to bring this thread back up again. Sacramento Regional is happening less than 5 days away! I am very excited to going to a rookie regional and check out how things start the first year!

I will be there starting Wednesday afternoon! Although I won't have the red hair, I should have a little badge with my picture and my name on it. Look from me at inspections and maybe the scoring table!

Hope to see everyone there!

We will be there wednesday afternoon as well. The less wimpy members of our team will have orange hair. we are staying at the Heritgae Hotel. anyone else staying there?

Team 662 will be staying at the Radisson Hotel (1.5 miles from the event IIRC). We've got a swimming pool there if anyone's interested.
Who else is staying at the Radisson?
Also, what is the weather like in Sacramento? Warm enough to bring shorts? We've got snow here in Colorado.

Depends what kind of day it is :)
 

No snow down here sir.

I'm sure it'll be nice weather for shorts. But then again I wear shorts everyday down in Cupertino :)

I'm glad we're actually going to have some room to manuever this year. This will be our first out of SV regional.

you will see team 253 and it's robot at the silicon valley! SEe ya in
24 days and counting!

only three more days now :D
the weather is quite chilly, we never get snow though.
I'd say it's too cold for shorts.
-For thurs:
63°/41°
-For fri:
63°/42°
-For sat:

if there some wireless access i will broadcast live images through webcam.. though ofcourse.. i will be updating everynight with pictures.

Oh so close...
 

Must... last... through... one more day. *heaves a heavy sigh*

Wednesday is going to be so hard and so long for me. I even drive by Cal Expo on my way home! I seriously cannot wait!

Let's make Sacramento's first regional a blast!

WAAAHOOOOOO!
That was a great regional. I'd like to say thanks to all the teams for making it so much fun. I will never forget the YMCA or the chicken dance, or the guy in the Kilt :D
It was so much fun!! Thanks to everyone!

WHo won?

They did it at VCU too. The refs were really getting their groove on.

Results?
 

I've always believed Sacramento was a "black hole" for tax dollars; I didn't realize it is also a black hole for FIRST results.

Why haven't any of the scores been posted on the FIRST regional website?? After >4 hours after the regional was completed, the official FIRST website still indicates "Data not yet available" - even for the qualification matches held the day before the finals.

I'm gathering some statistics regarding how teams have won in the regional elimination rounds. Several teams in other regionals have won on QPs, despite coming up short on a straight point differential! (This hasn't happened in the regional finals - except maybe in Sacramento??)
