Re: UTC Regional Updates
 

Great day of rounds everyone!
We (refs) had easy jobs. The teams seem to really know and understand the rules, and are careful of them.
Some highlights from my perseptive:

173 & 175 vs. 157 & 155
Man that was a great round. I believe it was also the first time a 10pt ball was shot by the human player (unfortunatly it missed, thanks Jon K.) It played out how alot of finals matches have, with robots collecting balls at the beginning and jockeying for position, then going for the hang at the end. Great all around match.

230 & 173 hanging with a ball stuck between them suspended by the robots. It was a great photo op, and I'm sure the picture will get here soon.

That's all I can think of now. It's just coincidence that they both involve 173.

Don't miss the finals tomarrow. I get the feeling the national winner will be in the the UTC finals!

Re: UTC Regional Updates
 

Who do you mean 131? I dont think there is a 131 at UTC did you mean 181? I know they are there I just dont know the rankings or how well anybody did ( too busy marveling at our splendid robot and our nifty keychains/pens)

Re: UTC Regional Updates
 

i would also like that list, heh our scout copied the numbers down wrong we have teams that arent even at utc on there heh. Personally i'd like to thank all of the teams we competed with today, we had great runs and we are ready to go for tomarrow.

Re: UTC Regional Updates

237 declined 571 and thus couldn't be chosen by 126, who wanted to pick them.
126 declined 236.

Re: UTC Regional Updates
 

Teams really need to scout better. Instead of picking their friends they should pay attention to who is being picked. Multiple times there were non-existant teams being picked. Teams are picking alliance captains that are higher than them. Also some teams were VERY rude in declining with VERY rude comments. Teams had no clue who to pick and were just picking numbers out of the air.

Teams that are in the bottom 5 are being picked over teams that are top 10...this just doesnt make sense to me.
