Re: Brunswick Eruption 4- its coming!!
 

I wanted to thank team 25 for putting together such an amazing competition. I hope my team comes back next year to defend their title.

I would like to thank all the other teams who attended for putting up such fierce competition. Together we are all winners.

I would especially like to thank all the preRookie teams who attended, showing the devotion to first, coming out and seeing whats its all about. A true inspiration to the rest.

I would also like to thank in particular 237, 56 and 11 for putting up such fierce competition. The 3 of you together really do make something special a really amazing force. We were almost unable to pull through.

It wouldn't have been for:

358 and 369. Those are 2 groups of amazing kids being able to over come such challenges. Being able to stare down one of the finalists from Atlanta. Being able to over come difficulties with robot damage. It seemed liked almost all the odds were stacked against us you could almost make a movie out of it.
:rolleyes:

Once again thank you all!

First, congratulations to the top seed 237, you guys got game and one heck of a 'bot. Also congratulations to the winning alliance, along with everyone who showed up.

My thanks to Team 25 for a very well-run event. Everything was great, from the layout to the judges and, yes, even the food. Whose mom made those meatballs? Yum.

It may be hard to imagine, but even finishing dead last, the kids were really enthusiastic and in high spirits. We had the misfortune, after a regional and nationals with no major failures, of having something go wrong in every single round. Go figure.

Finally, yet another thanks to team 25 for being graciously professional on the field when we were down one alliance member and accidentally (and autonomously) disabled our other alliance partner, leaving ourselves alone on the field. Team 25 was kind enough to score a few tetras for us with their 'bot so we wouldn't lose too badly. I have never experienced such a generous spirit in a competition, and am humbled and inspired by that act.

WE HAD FUN

Terrific Competition!

Thanks to 25 for hosting such an awesome event! It was really a lot of fun.

Thanks to 358 for picking us and 369 for being part of the awesome alliance. The finals were really exciting and that last match came down to the wire. 56, 237, and 11 made such a powerful alliance!

We'll see most of you in Trenton in a few months! :D

Re: Brunswick Eruption 4- its coming!!

Re: Brunswick Eruption 4- its coming!!
 

I would like to thank 25 for putting on such an amazing event.......just as they have in years past.

Now onto Trenton...where I am sure we will see most of you.

Ughh.. I never thought a file server site could be worse than RapidShare.. but.. I was wrong.

Re: Brunswick Eruption 4- its coming!!
 

I am in the process of getting pictures and videos from my team members. If you give me yours I will host them too.

Re: Brunswick Eruption 4- its coming!!
 

We have a whole lot of video that we're in the process of encoding/uploading. I'll post a link once it's all up.

I mirrored 555's really awesome video so you don't have to do that whole queue thing:

Re: Brunswick Eruption 4- its coming!!
 

I did it on Filefront because my school uses Websense and blocks almost everything fun except that site for some odd reason, and i needed it to get it to school because i havent bought my DVD burner yet.

edit:Websense even blocks Team 555's homepage.

Re: Brunswick Eruption 4- its coming!!
 

Thank you teams 25 and 999 for being great alliance partners. Thank you team 25 for hosting such a great event. Brunswick Eruption has always been one of the highlights of the off season for me. Congratulations to teams 75,358 and 369 to taking home the title. Our team's first sight of competition as prerookies back in 2003 was at Brunswick Eruption. I am already counting down the days until Brunswick Eruption v5.0. Congratulations to all teams who competed and we'll see you next year!

GO 1403!!!

Re: Brunswick Eruption 4- its coming!!
 

And I remember two belonging-to-no-team-random-people sitting in the stands of BE in 2003 and it was you and your sister. Who would have guessed that one day we would become friends? Incredible.

Re: Brunswick Eruption 4- its coming!!
 

Thanks killercows456 for posting the video.

Team 25 rules!!! Thanks for hosting such a great event. We will be back next year.

It is always fun to compete against team 56 they are formidable opponents. (Especially when paired with 237 and 11)
*237 super impressive all around.
*11’s drive train impressed us with both power and maneuverability.
Not to mention the great drivers on all three teams.

That may have even been a tougher alliance than we faced in the finals in Philly (56, 365, 316)

We thought it was all over when we lost our fork during match #2. (We would not have had a fork at all if not for the efforts of team 1089)

Thanks 75 and 369 for getting and keeping your arms working when we could not. Hope to play with you again sometime.
