Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Hopefully team 1403 will be there.... we'll know soon. I know you said 40 teams before, but is it still 40 that are allowed to register? Did that number go down?


GO 1403!!!

team222badbrad 10-04-2005 13:23

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Yes, the maximum number of teams is still 40, as far as I know.

See all of your PARC Roboteers soon!

Freddy Schurr 10-04-2005 23:48

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Team 204 might be interesting in signing up.

If we should attend, I have a question.Next year I would like to become a Emcee for a regional but when I talk to the emcees this year about how to get involved, they said that I show look into helping out at an off-season event. I was wondering, if I could emcee some of the matches at the PARC, just a couple. Private message

team222badbrad 17-04-2005 22:20

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
If anyone is possibly interested in volunteering for PARC, please let me know, we may have a few places where you can help out.

I have talked with Freddy204 and if anyone would also like to try out the Emcee side of things, like Freddy, to become a Emcee for FIRST please contact me also.

I have also had a few people interested in helping us tear down the field after wards, so if you are interested in that also let me know.

The current team list:

25
61
84
103
145

522
834
1048

If you have any questions, concerns, or comments please let us know!

camtunkpa 18-04-2005 15:46

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Brad has the latest up to date information on teams except for he forgot team 834.

On another note, we have had some responses about our registration page not working properly. One team tried to register using mozilla firefox and had problems. If you encounter any problems registering please contact us with symptoms of what the page is doing. I have tested the registration page and have not found any problems. We will be keeping an updated team list running in this thread, and if you don't see your team appear in a couple days, please contact us.

Thanks,
Cliff

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Hey
My team and I went there last year and you guys did a good job putting the whole thing together. We're not going this year because (go figure) the senior graduation is on the very same day. Plus, the remaining non-senior members don't want to make the 3 hour haul to Tunkhannock for a mere
day-long competition. No offense or nothin...but you know how it is.

See you next year or maybe at nationals.
Oh yeah, curry donuts rules. Yeah you know what I mean.

Mike F.
Team 1279- Cold Fusion.

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
plutonium83, we apologize for PARC being the weekend of SAT II's, but we run into things every year. That's kind of why we have always stuck to the day before mother's day. As far teams attending, 191 is unable to attend, but 1218 has taken the spot they held. Still plenty of spots for teams. Bug your mentors and teachers today, get them to sign up ASAP! See you all at the PARC

Yeah sorry we won't be able to come but could you pass along information about volunteering? I may be able to help.

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
I just finished the "training session" with the MC's for park, and I must say that It's going to be amazing!

You're MC's are: Myself, The Voice of NJ
From 204, The Let's Go Man, the Vikingantor: Freddy Schurr
From 103, Ms. PG, Jessjank: Jess Jankowitsch

On behalf of all of the MC's I want this to be the most amazing off season competition this year and we'll see you all at the PARC

Lil' Lavery 26-04-2005 20:58

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Im sorry to say that 116 will not be attending. We were considering it for a while, but then we realised its right in between the 2 weeks of AP testing, so its a no go. Sorry, and have fun.

team222badbrad 27-04-2005 00:10

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
SAT's and AP's what else are you going to throw at us?

You really think those tests are more important/fun that attending a robotics competition?

;)

George thanks for heading up the MC training session for PARC, your help is greatly appreciated.

Anyway, back to the busiest next 2 weeks of my life. (last week of spring semester, finals, work, and PARC)

nobrakes8 27-04-2005 01:08

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Unfortunatly Team 1071 looks like we won't be returning. We really want to go but the logistics of getting the robot back from Atlanta and the fact we won't raise enough money in time is why we're not going to my understanding, had it been 2-3 weeks later it would have been a different story..

Good luck this year, PARC was awsome last year and if a team has the money I'd say it's a must attend event.

So does this mean that you'll be making a PARC highlight video? If so i'll step my performance up another level to make it good ;)

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Update: Team 816 will not be attending, but add team #11 and team #1676 to the PARC VIII List We have a busy week ahead of us, keep the teams coming. Still waiting to hear from a couple seasoned veterans of PARC. See you all at the PARC!!

Dear Sir or Madam,

I beg to bring to your attention a grievous miscarriage of randomization which, to date, has gone unchecked. To wit:
2005 NJ Regional matches, 103 v 56: 5 (6 incl. replay); 103 & 56: 0
2005 Phl Regional matches, 103 v 56: 2; 103 & 56: 0
2005 Galileo matches, 103 v 56: 2; 103 & 56: 0
Let me do the sums for you: matches against: 9; matches together: 0
I trust you will agree that enough is enough! Please look into this matter and make the appropriate (random, of course) adjustments.

Thank you.

We're glad to see 56 as well as all of our returning and new teams, it's too bad we chose a bad weekend...oh well still lots of great teams.

Petek: As far as Mr. Randomizer goes, we use the same system FIRST uses, but I'll be sure to keep your post in mind when we setup the matches and see what happens from there.

Well the excitement has set in, the arena is arriving tonight at the school, tomorrow we will be working with the control system and testing the software, Thursday night we setup the field, and then Friday we finalize the wiring on the field & set up the pits. It's gonna be an exciting/tiring week hope it all pays off with every team having a blast!

Our team has also noticed this kind of scenario over the past 4 years, mainly because I point it out so much. I understand why and some teams may not like it but it is the way it has to be. I believe, and this is in no way fact, its just my opinion, that the randomizer uses the actual numbers of teams as part of the randomization. ie: team 11 and team 25 have played each other countless times, but to my knowledge have only been together once. If you notice in the practice matches, you may have more "favorable" alliance partners or more "less favorable" depending on your team number. It just seems to me that they dont want teams 1,2 and 3 paired up against 1699, 1700 and 1701. They tend to push the extremes (high and low) together to keep a balance...I dont know, I could be insane...

CANT WAIT TIL PARC!

The one time i know we were together was last year at PARC as an eliminations round alliance. Past that what you said is basically right, according to what i know.

And i am dying in anticipation. It is going to be soo much fun. I can not wait.

Actually, in 2002 at the MidAtlantic Regional team 84 selected team 25 and team 11 as their alliance partners for the finals. So, you have deffinately played some time together before making it to Regional Finalists. ;)

See you all at PARC!

George A. 03-05-2005 17:32

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
I remember that! We won the semifinals by 1 point. I didn't think we would get picked, but sometimes you are pleasantly surprised in FIRST!

As for the randomization aspect I have also noticed the strage matchings between teams, where some teams never seem to be together, and some teams are always against each other...I don't know what to make of it, but it does give teams to put on a good showing!

3 days left till the Voice of NJ hits PARC! I can't wait.

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Unfortunately team 1403 will not be able to make it out to PARC this year. The SAT's strike again. :( I promise next year we are gonna try to come. I remember it was a blast last year and I look forward to it next year. I am gonna try and make it out though, I hear Jess might be MC'n so I might come out just for that. :)


GO 1403!!!

Yess! I remember that, it was my freshman year. The 1 time team 11 and team 25 were paired up in a computer randomized match was last year at the chesepeake regional...the last qualification match we had. We then were put against each other in the quarter finals. The pushing battles we had were great, those were some of the most exciting matches I've seen.

Maybe PARC can exceed it??? Most likely!

If I recall at PARC last year, it was 25, 1403 and 11 teamed up. Those were some fun matches. 25 and 11 were broken and they played the game a little differently than it was meant to be played :D . Good times.


GO 1403!!!

Side note:
For any teams coming down on friday staying into saturday, the dietrich theater has 2 screens and will be showing Millions and the Amityville Horror. There theater is RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF TOWN. literally if you can make your way to Tunkhannock and find the Stop light that isn't on the By-pass (business route 6) look to one of the four corners, and you will see the theater.See you at the Dietrich

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
team 56 is RoBBE Xtreme, we usually are given one by other teams but if not we will have a specail something! and im waiting to see if we will get teamed up with 103 in any of our matches being this is the last time we will see each other.

henryBsick 05-05-2005 01:03

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Well... I was helping getting the electronics setup and the Hatch tech systems working... and one of the matches generated to test ( I am nopt sure where the teams came from) was 56 103 and some other team on an alliance...mabe its a sign...

As for the webcast I am going to say no...just because of the feasability of a supporting connection to the net. There will be video footage taken for the purose of redistribution I believe but I haven't personally talked to the videographer in a while.

Status wise.. the field goes up tomorow after school!!

See you at the PARC!

To all PARC volunteers/refs.: Please check in at the scorer's table and then you will be directed to some meeting place. We will be opening the doors at 7:00AM so it's gonna be a long day. We appreciate all the help and support from other teams and the FIRST community! See you all at the PARC!

TO ALL TEAMS ATTENDING PARC.....
IF you can bring your radio modem (transmitter) for your Operator interface PLEASE DO. We did not receive the radio tower with the Field and as a result we will now have to use the competition port and the radio modem connection hand in hand like last year.

PLEASE BRING RADIO TRANSMITTERS!!

-See ya soon :)

Well I just got off the phone with Elgin Clock and 103 (cybersonics) are currently in first place. Unfortunately, right after that the chicken dance song came on and I could hear nothing.

We're being text messaged from the team. Team 303 picked Teams 487 and 365, and they are heading into the semi-finals.

Alliance 303, 487 and 365 lost to 103, 56 and 25. I believe this was in the semi-finals.

Ted Boucher 07-05-2005 20:09

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
I have heard 103, 56, and 25 won PARC. These 3 great teams really deserved it, good job and congratulations!

HellStorm303 07-05-2005 21:50

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
yes indeed congrats to 103, 56, and 25. Great alliance matches. We had a fun time all around, have to give a thanks out to Moe and 487, I cant wait till next year :D

Corey Balint 07-05-2005 22:07

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Yuppers. All this is true. A great day for us obviously, couldnt be happier.

Throughout the day we were having technical issues, and letting some rookie drivers test out their skills. We ended the day with 2 qualification match wins and 5 losses.

Thanks to 103 and 56 for picking us. Whoever you picked really didnt matter though, it was a done deal. You guys are insane.

Thanks to 222 for running an amazing event. This was the first FIRST event i ever attended that ran AHEAD of schedule. Great Job.

Bharat Nain 07-05-2005 22:12

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Yep, it was a great day... Thank you 56 and 103 for picking us and thank you 222 for hosting such a great event. We really enjoyed it, especially since its the last time some of the seniors(not me) can drive and meet old friends. Good times... sharpie fest...

Did the markers finally wash off?

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
PARC was very entertaining. Good matches and good times with good friends ( I sure hope Dez and his crew got back safe. Elgin and Ashley were out by the end of the day. Ashley slept through the whole tournament. It's all those Krispy Kreames. That sugar high is enough to make you reach the stars but those lows go deep like a melancholy soul.)
I think FIRST found it's next superstar announcer in Jess. The Kelly Ripa of FIRST announcers. :p

Thanks to THS and the Tigertrons for putting on a great event. This was the best-run FIRST event I've been to. Oh, yeah, it wasn't a FIRST event, was it? No wonder it went so smoothly!

Michael Leicht 07-05-2005 23:09

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!

I was able to capture the entire event, as far as I know, (didn't have a chance to watch the video yet.) Other than a few times when the camera went off, which is no problem cause I can just edit those scenes out.

It took almost 3 hours to packup all my equipment i had behind the control table. FYI other than a small video camera of my team, all the equipment on and in the general area of the patch panel was mine. LOL

I'd like to thank everyone who helped out at PARC.

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
I would like to thank all the teams that attended the PARC today, you all put on a great show!

I also want to thank all the volunteers that helped out at the PARC.

Congratulations to teams 103, 56, and 25 for taking home the big WIN, well deserved by all three teams!

Teams 84, 204, and 176 also put on some great final matches, but congratulations on taking PARC Finalists!

I also would like to congratulate team 316 for receiving the PARC Safety Award and team 103 for receiving the "Out of the PARC" Award.

We have a few items that have been found, including a cell phone.

Contact scott.howell@tasd.net or myself bsr150@psu.edu if you are missing something.

I hope to see you all again at the 2006 9th annual PARC!


We would love to hear your comments/suggestions!

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Well it was another great day at PARC. Team 341 would like to thank Scott, Fred and the entire Tigertrons crew for another amazing event. Very well planned and executed.

Congratulations to teams 103, 56 and 25 for putting together an overpowering alliance.

Team 341 also had a great day on the field going 6 and 1 and placing as the #3 Seed. We would just like to thank our alliance partners, Teams 61 and 284, for putting up a valiant fight, right up until our last semi-final match.

PARC Vlll rocked!!! Thanks again Tigertrons!!!

See you all at Ramp Riot on November 5th!

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Mmm, was so good to get SLEEP. Just crawled out of bed, and had to read talk on Delphi. Many of you know how horrible and long my finals week was, thanks for pulling me through!

Now on to the good stuff!...

Tigertrons, once again hands down an amazing event. Way to go guys, can't wait to see what could happen later on if you are already turning gears in your mind about PARC X so soon!

To the PARC VIII Champions 103, 56, and 25 Congratulations! 103, a beautiful auton, everyone watch out for these guys throughout all of the post season. 56, if they can get stacking, they will keep sacking, and stacking, and stack........ :yikes: Congratulations!

To our young driver team, YOU were able to pull off FINALISTS! Congratulations CHUCK and team 84! Congrats to the seniors it was nice to see some of you have a chance in the player station, who never were able to step foot in prior. Best of Luck to the underclassmen in what you will bring with Chuck X next year!!! :D

Thank you to our alliance partners 176 and 204 for accepting our offer to join us in the finals. We couldn't have done it without you guys! Best of luck throughout the rest of the post season.

I didn't think it was QUITE that bad. Of course, Corey and Elgin might think otherwise. I think the next FIRST off-season I attend I might have to watch my back. I definitely got some people who didn't get me back :D

It was a really fun event though. PARC has always been nicely run, the one's I've attended anyway. Congrats to 103, 56, and 25. That was a wicked alliance if I've ever seen one. Here's to a repeat!

And I got all the sharpie off my face, except one pink stripe. Only a little more scrubbing...

Whitters 08-05-2005 11:41

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Whitney from Team 84 here. Would just like to congratulate Teams 103, 56, and 25 on their win at PARC. Your alliance was awesome guys!

We'd also like to thank teams 176 and 204 for being great alliance partners and helping us get all the way to the finals. Congrats to 84's rookie drivers on your first 2nd place win!

Freddy Schurr 08-05-2005 11:48

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
103, 56, and 25 way to go, you were tough defenders in the final match.

I personally would like to thank 84 and 176 for choosing for the alliance. We made to the finals, and we really show that we should be reckon with Out of everything we did this year, by far this was the greatest accomplishment of the year. Since this is my last year on the team, I really proud that we could ended it off with bang. Thanks again

I would like to thank George and Jess for helping putting a great event together. I had a lot of fun mcing and can't wait to see what else is in store for these two great people.

Last by not least, the Tiger trons for putting a great event together and for letting me MC. This was by far, the BEST off-season competition yet.

Dude... this was the only off-season event so far :p
J/k Freddy... thanks... and thanks to all for your compliments. PARC 8 was great but hopefully PARC 9 will have MORE teams and be EVEN BETTER!!

Also congrats to 103 56 and 25... no one was stopping you guys...you were an insane alliance.

See everyone in two weeks at BtB!!

Freddy Schurr 08-05-2005 12:00

I mean, best off-season competition that I have attended in all years in the club.

Hope to see you all again at RAMP RIOT, NOV.5!!!

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
PARC was once again a great off season competition. This was my last time being around the robot in a competition setting as a student and I had a great time. Being able to see all of my friends again was great, meeting people from CD that I haven't met before and having some great talks with KoKo ed, something that everyone should get a chance to do because hes a great man to talk to and full of great stories and ideas. Plus I got to sharpie Corey and get sharpied my self. Thank you to team 222 for running an amazing event and congratulations to teams 103, 56 and 25 for winning and making it look easy.

K.Shaw 08-05-2005 14:21

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
I had a great time at PARC, it ran smoothly and it was kept relatively cool with the 3 industrial fans woot, congrats to team 56, 25 and 103 for your win!

koko ed nice to finally meet u....ive heard alot about u from my team!

this was my first time reffing a FIRST event and hopefully it wont be my last because it was fun (also thanks to all the teams for not coming up to any of the refs and yelling at us),

Scott Shaw 237 08-05-2005 15:24

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
I would also like to thank 22 for putting on such an awesome event. I had such a great time reffing. It was great to see the game from the ref's perspective and not the driver's for once. I had a great time, had the chance to talk to Koko Ed again, which was fun, and I got to meet a few CDer's who I have yet to meet. Also I got to see all of my friends again. Congratulations to 103, 56, and 25 on an awesome competition and congratulations to all the other teams, it was an awesome event.

Well after some sleep and some throat lozenges I'm finally back to working order. Thanks to all the volunteers that helped out and Fred for giving us the chance to show our stuff...couple of shout outs

Fred: Great job pulling this event together. By far the best offseason competition I went to.

Sara: Great working with you again. BEST SCORER EVER!

Brad: Thanks for getting me involved, if it's ok with you guys I'd love to keep coming back

and last but by far least

Jess and Freddy: You two put on a great show. I can't wait to see you two on the field at Championships. Just as long as I'm your announcer.

Freddy Schurr 08-05-2005 18:33

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Hey PARC teams, I gotta question for you

How did I do at MCing. What did I do good? What I should do better? How was my overall performance of the day.

THANKS

George A. 08-05-2005 18:37

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
Same goes for me, always open to criticism to my play by play. Also does anyone have footage from the quarterfinal matches where I did the MCing? I'm the one who did the "flip" on the field

Well I wouldn't reccomend doing any more rolls towards the other side of the field. That could get pretty dangerous. ;)

Bharat Nain 08-05-2005 18:55

Re: 2005 PARC!!!!!
 
I think the MCing and DJing was good all day, except, before you give the Go for a match to start, make sure both sides and referees are ready - and people are totally off the field. This one match a GO was given and people literally flew off the field because they thought autonomous was starting lol.
