Re: OK, so who received their IRI invoice?
 

Thanks Ryan. After the great competition we had with Team 234 in Phoenix, we just have to come and visit you folks again, especially since Libby (Team 393) gave us a personal invitation right here on Chief Delphi.

Fact is, although this has been our most successful year in FIRST so far, we just don't feel like the season is over. We are still looking around for some more good competitions, and we know a great place to find one: IRI! It was awesome last year, and this year, its going to be UNBELIEVABLE!

(One of our mentors figured out that the average regional qualifying scores of the teams currently on the list for IRI is quite a bit higher than the average for the teams attending the Championship Event. [Yes, he has all the scores for every team that went to Atlanta.] In other words, for any teams looking for a tough competition, a trip to Indiana is HIGHLY recommended!)

(Oh, by the way, the mid-west hospitality is impossible to beat! :-)

Re: OK, so who received their IRI invoice?
 

ok...all teams who have registered for the IRI should have recieved their confirmation and invoice information...let me know if there are any problems :)

Re: THE OFFICIAL "MY TEAM IS ATTENDING IRI" THREAD
 

We still only have 48 teams signed up for the 2004 IRI. We have opened up this years' competition to 60 teams and we want to see 60 teams!! This fun-filled 2 day event features the annual 'cookout' (which features a cow that has already been slaughtered from the Ritchie Farm), the first (hopefully annual) talant show, website competition, animation competition, chairman's award competition and much more!! Indianapolis is a wonderful and clean city that everybody will enjoy!! There is a lot to do downtown including visiting the NCAA Hall of Champions, canal walk, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and MUCH more!

Sign up and get to experience the Hoosier Hospitality while having fun with robots.

We have an incredible list of teams signed up so far and we are looking forward to filling up the field.

For more information post in this thread or visit IndianaFIRST.org to register!!

We hope to see you July 9^th and 10^th!!

Paging 67? 469?

Re: THE OFFICIAL "MY TEAM IS ATTENDING IRI" THREAD
 

^ what i was trying to ask for also.


469 has never lost an IRI event, yet they have yet to sign up for this year's IRI....

Re: THE OFFICIAL "MY TEAM IS ATTENDING IRI" THREAD
 

469 played the most amazing series of matches at Atlanta. Our mentors have been trying to figure out how to hold our own against them. If they don't come, it will be like getting our snow boots on and then finding there's no snow. To Team 469: You guys are awesome!

We want 469. We want 469. We want 469. We want 469. We want 469.

(Oh, by the way, in our last match in San Diego last weekend, our drive team found themselves holding a yellow ball right beside Team 634's basket robot which was under our ball bin to catch the balls, so of course, our guys decided to pull a 469 manuever, and they held the yellow ball over Team 634's basket robot. Guess what happened? Three guesses. [Don't peak.] Yup. You got it. Part of our arm got caught in their basket and we did a little dance with them for the next 90 seconds. And we were being careful not to get caught! Reminded us of a certain match at Atlanta. :-)

As for Team 67, HOT, we saw videos of some incredible matches at Atlanta between them and Team 16 and others, and we were VERY impressed. Our statistics guy rates them as one of the top scoring teams in the country. We want them at IRI.

We want 67. We want 67. We want 67. We want 67. We want 67.

Good Deal :) 469 you guys are amazing as well - I can't wait to see you guys in action again at IRI.

To see one of the greatest matches of this year, look at the first quaterfinals match from the midwest regional on www.soap108.com :]

Re: OK, so who received their IRI invoice?
 

Honestly I believe our team's success is due to our amazing mentors and drivers, we couldn't have gotten far without their dedication. I remember those chicago matches well. I was sitting around in the pits charging batteries when Ed (one of our mentors) runs in with the mangled gripper. He made a nice fix to it too: quintuple-riveted 1" flat stock to keep the gripper together. Although I liked Dan's previous fix to a now-retired gripper: standard screwdriver shoved down the pipe to keep its shape.
I can't wait for IRI.

Awesome!

Now we just need to contact the other "HOT" teams for this year, and get them registered, so that the winning teams at IRI will know that they competed against the best of the best!!!

Calling all "HOT" teams for 2004. Your presence is requested. Please register immediately for IRI.

Re: OK, so who received their IRI invoice?
 

Everyone from team 469 CANT WAIT for IRI!!! We are all bouncing with excitement. :D Cant wait to see all of you guys there! :D

Re: OK, so who received their IRI invoice?
 

:D This is getting better and better! WPI (190) was just great this year, I can't wait to see them autonomously hanging/dominating again.
