Thanx- I'll do that

Re: 2006 Arizona Regional
 

Can someone please keep us posted. I cant get anything on NASA TV, and the usfirst website isnt being updated.

I could not go because of an exam I had on Friday, and now I am nervous as heck.

Your help will be truly appreciated.

Thanks.

WOW!! 1006, 60, and 1897 won!!! They beat 987, 1241, and 1917 in a tiebreaker. That's awesome! I know 1006 hasn't won a regional before, and to have two Canadian teams (1006 and 1241) in the final is awesome as well. Well done guys!

Re: 2006 Arizona Regional

Re: 2006 Arizona Regional
 

All of the awards are up on the FIRST site, and all of them are correct. The rankings are also up, they are official and are all correct.

It looks like the webcast failed for everything part way through the quarters; are team video taped all of the playoffs (I will confirm this), and hopefully I can post up the videos online so they can be viewed.

Most of the semi-final and final matches became autonomous mayhem; teams kept aiming robots to ram opponents, and opponents kept changing autonomous modes to try to dogde them and still score.

The only field errors that I saw occur at the competition happened during the finals, where the first time they ran a match the red goal did not light up in autonomous, and the second time the blue alliance did not initialize.

Thanks to team 330 and 599 for picking us; it was a great time in the playoffs. We lost in the semis to the later Regional Champions in 3 matches, where at first we thought we won the 3rd match but then the score was changed after reviewing the awarding of a bonus (from what I've heard they reviewed whether the ball fired from our robot that landed in the center goal was out of the robot before the buzzer, to determine who won the autonomous bonus). It was a great series, and the refs did a good job of calling all the matches out there.

Thanks everyone for a great AZ Regional, we'll see you all next year and hopefully we'll get enough money to see you somewhere else too!

Thank you to all the teams who helped make the Arizona Regional GREAT!

Thank you to the out of town teams who brought the rain. After 142 days without rain, we needed it. I suggest billing the state government for the cost of your trips.

To the Final six, great matches. I wish they were still going on.

Congrats to team 60 for another great regional. Seeing your pit is like going home for the holidays.

Thank you team 987 for helping us score 111 points in match 57.

Thank you to teams 234 and 698 for joining us.

To the crew...OUTSTANDING JOB. Thank you for helping Mike!

Even though we have a veteran number, we were a rookie team. Thank you everyone for helping our kids in the pits, on the field, and in the stands.

Each year there is a rumor that the Arizona Regional will be a Super Regional next year. I hope so.

Dave, thanks for a great speech!

Thank you to my wonderful wife. I'll be home early tonight (if I can remember the address.)

Congrats to teams 1006, 60 and 1897 on winnig the 2006 Arizona regional. You guys played great all throughout the competition and played an exciting match during the 3rd game of the finals.
Thanks to team 987 for choosing us to be in your alliance. It was a good alliance with team 1917 and we did the best we could in the finals and I know our team had fun.
Congrats also to team 842 for the Chairmans.
And a HUGE congratulations to team 1926 Navajo Heroes for the Judges Award. When the citation for the was being read for the award, the entire crowd was standing and cheering half way through the award citation. Their closest Home Depot is a 150 miles away!!! And their ONLY engineering mentor has to drive 2 hours to get to the place they work. They also dont have a good machine shop and built the ENTIRE robot using hand tools. Now theres a team that exemplifies the true sprit of FIRST.
And a huge thank you to all the volunteers, referees and judges for making this regional a HUGE success.
