So, who won?

Re: Duel on the Delaware
 

75, 222 and 1721(Pre rookie team we started at Howell High School). They used our 2004 robot and played this years game. AND WON. The robot won the event TWICE. Go start pre-rookie teams and maybe your robot will win an event twice too. Henrys(222s driver) driving was beyond amazing. The event was awesome overall and thanks to 365 and 316 for hosting it.

Remember B-Rat, Henry is nothing without me! We were racking up tetras like mad in the finals!!!! I'd just like to say thanks to team 1721(pre rooks) for picking us and team 75 for joining us also! We wanted you guys to have another chance! ;) Team 1721, you guys were AMAZING today. I hope your school will be proud of you! Anyways, thanks to teams 365 and 316 for an awesome event!! And Henry, we did it man, UNDEFEATED!!!!

Yeah Bharat, I just take Brian places... he scores the points :D

Its good to "retire" that competition at a perfect 3-0 for the three years I have been there.

Duel is always a great competition with great teams and even better people. Hopefully I will be able to come back next year to watch as an alum...

Thank you 1721 and 75 for being such a solid alliance amids the daunting 8th seed.
Also, thank you to 365 and 316 for such a great competition.

Duel on the Delaware - Congrats &Thanks

We will be posting this info, the Duel Master Volunteer nominations, and recipients of the Duel Personal Recognition Awards/Buttons, on the MOE 365 website soon, in addition to some photos of the event. Look for them.

And lastly, a very special thank you to all who made this event possible, from the man who opened the doors to the Field House at SCC at 6:20am on Saturday morning to the people in the Red Bull truck to distributed some free Red Bull to each and every volunteer, planning committee member, or service provider. As always, there are too many people to mention, but each one is important to making this event happen.

See you next year.

Duel of the Delaware was an amazing event! It was my first year there and my team's first as well. We really enjoyed the GP shown and the spirit was phenomenal for a small crowd. Great selection of music, too.

Thank You Team 1721 and 222 for choosing Team 75 as the third alliance. Thank you to all the organizers of the event.

I will surely miss driving at Duel on the Delaware since I will be in college next year.

Great job to all the teams who participated. It was fun. :D

Re: Duel on the Delaware
 

This is an extremely well-run and exciting event! What a cinderella story for the winners, as well! 8th place alliance member choosing last place seed and having to pick a third partner from eliminated teams... to take it all. That's just awesome!!

Congrats to 222, 75 and 1721!!! Thanks to 365 and 316 for hosting it!

And where can I get that video that was played at the event? That was great!

Re: Duel on the Delaware
 

I just want wanted to thank everyone including 316 and 365 (it was great seeing you guys again) for making it such a wonderful experience.

I also wanted to thank 87 and 316. Our original alliance partners in the quarter finals. Even if we didn't make it too far we still put up the good fight!

I wanted to thank 222 and 1721 for giving us that 2nd chance when they were missing their 3rd alliance member and chose us to join them and we went on to claim the title.

I had a wonderful time and I'm sure my team and I will be back next year to defend our title!

Re: Duel on the Delaware
 

I am sad that I missed this years duel, I have attended everyone of them up to now but I had an emergency to deal with on Saturday morning and had to pull out of showing up. Congratulations to the teams that won.

Re: Duel on the Delaware
 

terrific competition.

thanks to 1721 and 222 for giving us a second chance! and i suppose it would be in due order to thank 25 for giving 1721 such an awesome robot to help us win. hehe.

thanks to 365 and 316 for putting together such a well-run competition!
and ditto to the great music selection comment.

Re: Duel on the Delaware
 

Yeah, I kinda loved the music. Think we could get that playlist anyone?

Re: Duel on the Delaware
 

I 3rd that about the music!

Much thanks to 204 and 555 for picking us as their partners!

Thanks to 365 and 316 for the organizing and planning the competition. The event was excellent - we all had a blast! It was a great competition to start out the [school] year, and it will certainly be a memorable event in Firebirds history :)

Re: Duel on the Delaware
 

I just wanted to thank John Larock and the crews of 316 and 365 for putting on the Duel. Another great event.

Congratulations to Bob Foell and the Firebirds for the Master Volunteer Award.

Team 341 would also like to thank our partners 816 and Chuck 84 for helping us make it to the finals.

We had a great run , 6-0 in the Qualifiers and then right through to the Finals. But I have to say that 222, 1721 and 75 worked us over pretty good in the Finals. Congratulations to the Champions!!

Can't wait to see everyone again at Ramp Riot on November 5th It should be another great one.

Re: Duel on the Delaware
 

I have a copy of the video Jake made on my USB drive, and will see if we are (going to/can) put it up on the duel website or something.

As for the music playlist, I will export the list from iTunes and try and get it posted here as an excel attachment tomorrow when I get off work.
