The cable got ripped from the radio during a collision with 386 in the last finals match. It will be mounted in a less vulnerable location before our next regional in NYC.

Re: UCF regional!
 

since there are two threads about UCF regional... i didnt want any chiefdelphi reader to miss all these teams and the names of ppl who were really gracious and helped at all time... so i am posting the same post again here....

"UCF regional was AWEEEESOOOMEEE.... it was so much fun...

First of all i would like to congrats all the teams... all the teams were great... i was very surprised by performance of the rookie teams this year... they were very inspiriing... some great robots like... 945, 233, 61, 311, 179, 312, 180, 762, 665, 79 did an AWESOME job... this was probably one of the best regional which would be happening this year. And ofcourse you cant forget the spirit of combat, swamp and S... P... A... M... SPAM SPAM SPAM!!!... i would like to thank Kenny Ardizone for all the times that he put in for FIRST... he deserved the woodie flower's award... now that i have seen these 41 robots... i cant wait till i get to Nationals... which is going to be awesome... now ofcourse we gotta show FIRST that what florida teams can do...

I would like to thank swampthing, spam and PAW... they were there anytime that i needed their help... thank you so much Tytus (swampthing), Amanda (swampthing), Gary (Spam), Tiffany (spam), Mr. Higgins (Spam), Peter (paw), Dan (paw), Ryan (paw) ... i dont remember of them saying no to anything that i have asked throughout these three days... just like the practice day when we found out that we were 137 lbs... they all were there to help us and we got it down to 125.6 lbs...

The time passed by so fast that i didnt even realize i was there for 3 days competing... i would like to wish all teams good luck and our best for their coming up regionals and nationals... we are going to have a good time this year..."

Re: UCF regional!
 

hey having two gives me a chance to say the rest before i fall asleep 1083 you guys are awesome, SPAM, you know we love our sister, thanks so much to both of you and everyone on your teams, elimnations were harsh on the robot and the help you gave us was awesome, we made a great alliance sigma cats you are great thanks, im really bad with spelling names so im not going to but to every one i talked to thanks i had so much fun, i think i can speak for the whole team on that, it was great to meet so many people and i cant wait for nationals! :cool:
PS i was laughing about this on the ride home, on the way there when we hit mile marker 179 (yay!) right after it we say exit for 180, tytus can testify for this also, we where laughing abuot how it would be funny if we ended up alliying with you, and look we have george from 1083 and spam, funny isnt it? may you dream of robots!

Re: UCF regional!
 

UCF was awesome! Got home about two hours ago. I can not talk at all. I was screaming so much during the competition! If you saw me on saturday I sqeaked, and hoarsley whispered. Doing better now though.
I'd like to thank 233 for... Well EVERYTHING! We teamed up in one of our QMs and did wonderfuly together. (140 pts is not bad if you ask me. ;)) I'd also like to thank them for giving us the HUGE compliment that they did about us being a really smart, and strategical team, that they really liked working with. A bunch of us went down and cheered for pink in their last QMs, and in the finals after our alliance was knocked out. I'd would also like to issue ANOTHER thank you to pink for some of you guys coming down and giving us fives, after we won the Motorola Quality Award. You guys are totally awesome, and like I've told some of you before "Hopefully, we'll see you at Nats!" (I hope we get to go! :D) Too bad we didn't get to team up in the finals, if we hadn't become the 8th seed (because of alliances moving us to 8 from 11) you guys could have picked us for your second alliance. Which *I think* was going to happen, and that's why you had a hard time finding a third one. One of my team members was like "Oh no, now they can't pick us!!!" Lol. Good luck in NY 233!
I gotta mention 1144, for a second year team all the way from Portorico (sp?) they did excellent, and were one of our better aliances in the QMs. :)
Congrats to the regional champs 945, 386, and 61- (who broke our hook in a QM.. but no hard feelings. We made a new one that was stronger soon after. ;)) Also congrats to the finalists, 233, 311, and 1144! Finally congrats to ALL of the award winners!

Good luck in the rest of your regionals, and at nats! See you in Columbia (South Carolina)! :D

Re: UCF regional!
 

Very well done to all teams. Too bad ComBBAT looked so bad, but we did figure everything out for our final qualifying match, and then our drive system had issues. Wait till you see us in South Carolina in a few weeks though :) As for all the other teams, excellent job. Finals were very exciting. Can't wait to see you guys all again.

Re: UCF regional!
 

Has the guy from FIRST posted his pictures yet? If he has can someone put a link on here thanks

Re: UCF regional!
 

well i could not find the powerpoint presentation that as said to be up, os ill keep checking for it every so often. But what i did find is the digital archives of the event are up all ready at the NASA UCF Page.

Re: UCF regional!
 

Great job guys! those finals were some of the most exciting I've seen ever in my 4 years at FIRST. I really believe some of the best robots got into the finals. I was dissapointed 233 broke at the end, just because I wanted to see what would have happend if they worked the entire match.

I think 945 quite possibly has one of the best robots in the nation right now! that thing was amazing and quite effecient.. capping and hanging within 25 seconds! thats truely amazing

Great job to everyone who was there it was truely an inspiring and fun regional. I can't wait for next year! Even tho I won't be on PAW ne more :: sniff sniff ::

See everyone at nationals ( hopefully )

Dan
