Re: Help?!?!
 

Starting to get a lil concerned......Team 225 alumni aren't really coming through for us this year....

Anyone want to REFEREE at Summer Frenzy on Saturday?!

Karpinski has made some modifications so there are no surprises as to who a match winner is.....
Each team will have 8 Qualifying rounds, in a 2 v 2 format.
The game will use only 4 Referees.
The game will be guided by "Basket Ball Rules". (blocking is OK, but you can't push or hit).
There will be NO penalty deductions. Violations will be handled by awarding a tetra on top of a Perimeter Goal nearest the violation. (Goal is owned).
There will be NO Human Player penalties. Refs will signal when HP's are allowed to load robots.
ALL Robots$@#near the Loading Zone will be disabled when loading.

With only a dozen teams, 2 v 2 qualification format and 24 qualifying matches, we wanted to reduce the potential of damage done by aggressive defensive play and give the rookies a chance to score.


Interested? Email me or Ron.

I am sooo excited for SCPARC knowing that the game will be played 2 v 2. I drove in a match in Philladelphia with team 348; it was the most fun I have haddriving this season!

Re: South Central PA Robotics Competition
 

2 v. 2?!?!?! SWEET!! Can't wait to rock at the SCPARC!!

Re: South Central PA Robotics Competition
 

Team 341 would just like to thank our partners Team 84 and Team 1123 for making an awesome run in the playoffs.


We would also like to thank Ron Karpinski, Lisa Tarman, Team 225, Mike Wade, Pete Baltzell, NASA GSFC, the IRON FEVER show producers, Jenny Beatty, and all of the volunteers for helping to organize the 2nd annual FIRST Frenzy. You all did an awesome job.

Does anyone have all of the official results??

Re: South Central PA Robotics Competition
 

Champions: 341, 84, 1123

Finalists: 222, 225, 116

High Score: 222 AND 007

1 Seed: 341

Iron Fever (Spirit): 84

I know I got the Finalists and High score right ;)

I was too busy looking at the expo, instead of the competition!

Re: South Central PA Robotics Competition
 

Team 84 was Spirit and Team 341 was #1 seed. But I think there was at least one other award wasn't there?

Thanks for posting what you know! Congrats to all of the winners!!

Re: South Central PA Robotics Competition
 

DO NOT FORGET MY TEAM!!! >_<

Anyways, Thanks to teams 487 and 1111 for being such wonderful alliance partners. You guys did great!

And a huge congratulations to Teams 341, 84 and 1123 for doing such an outstanding job. What an alliance. =]

Re: South Central PA Robotics Competition
 

Sorry, completely forgot about our partner in the high scoring match of the day with 007, it would not have been the high score of the day without you!

Also thanks for a great event.

Going to edit my other post now! ;)

Re: South Central PA Robotics Competition
 

Definately a great competition!!! Kudos to all those who put it together. The 'basket ball' rules worked great! And the 2 v 2 definately improved the game ( I thought so anyway). True the scores weren't as high with only 2 teams, but the game-play was more exciting. Thanks to all who participated and everyone from 225 for putting on sucha great 1-dayer!!!

Re: South Central PA Robotics Competition
 

Chuck would like to say a heartfelt 'Thank you' to Miss Daisy and 1123 for making the perfect ending to a great day possible. You were super partners!

A special word of thanks to Daisy for inviting Chuck to the finals. We appreciate your confidence in us.

To Ron, Mike, Pete, Lisa, and all of the other volunteers who worked together to make this a really fun event, our deep gratitude for all of your time and work. We couldn't have had all that fun without you. Will you do it again next year???

Re: South Central PA Robotics Competition
 

Thanks once again to 341 for picking us. Over the last 5 years, that I have been on the floor team, we have partnered several times, and just like this time we always do great. Keep up the good work. Who knows maybe we can try it again for the third time in a row next year. Also thanks to team 222 for being such a great competitor.
