Come on all you Mid-Atlantic teams out there, start signing up for this great event! It will be a blast!
The school at Montgomery is incredible, and almost assures a great time in itself. |
Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!
Ok those of you that were at the New Jersey regional almost definitely saw some of the give-aways we had for Monty Madness (Shirts (limited quantities), Bags, Post-Its, Buttons) so we ask you, Who Wants to Come?
See you May 20th! |

Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!
1089 will definitely be there (Gregory already promised. He just hasn't registered yet, I don't know what he's waiting for...)! How could anyone pass up a BMS team's off-season?
I'm sure we'll try and get Allentown (1807) to come too! |
Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!
I can't speak for my home team and the team I mentor is a little far away, but I will be home from college by then and would certainly love to come and help out in anyway that I may be of best use. Let me know whenever you get things figured out!

Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!
This looks like a great event! I just checked their website, and they even have some really cheap t-shirts for sale. Just ordered one in PINK :p and I can't wait to wear it at school. See ya, Mare

A robot that responds to voice commands? Why do you expect it to listen to your voice commands? It's not like the students listen to your voice commands :p Besides, I'm not sure something like "Don't tip over! oh god, please don't tip over" is a voice command. |
Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!
ok im pretty sure team 237 isnt going to Monty Madness this year. It seems that a closer minicomp Beantown Blitz in Boston is the same day.

Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!

If anyone is interested in the event or simply wants more details, don't hesitate to visit the TEAM 1403 pit area located in the Galileo division. You could look for either myself(WAI pic), Conor(WAI pic), or Mr.Kazan(the one with the corny jokes that still end up being funny for some odd reason :p ) for more details or ask anyone in the pit. Good luck to all teams competing and I hope to see everyone there!

oooo i forgot to mention these are the extremely stylish NEW Team 75 shirts, they are red as opposed to the old black ones. 1 medium T-shirt, 2 small polo, 1 medium polo |
Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!
So who is ready for MONTY'S MADNESS!
|
Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!
Now that PARC is over, I am so looking forward to Monty! It shall be awesome I am quite sure.
|
Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!
I am extremely excited about the event just a few days away... the field is already sitting in our hallway just waiting for someone to put it together.... :rolleyes:
Aside from the competition, I am looking forward to a bunch of other things as well..... for instance, the look on everyone's faces when they see the kinds of things that we are selling. We have the traditional shirts, pens, notepads etc. But we also have Monty Madness candy bars. They are Nestle Chocolate bars with the Monty Madness logo engraved into the chocolate and with the special monty madness wrapper. We have 700 of them and are expecting to sell out quickly... I also heard the volunteer shirts are really nice. They aren't the traditional shirts, but rather they are customized polo shirts that look really cool. We also have one more surprise that will be announced a little later down the week after we confirm that it is actually going to happen.... :) GO 1403!!! |

Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!
It's not raining/flooding in Jersey too is it?? :ahh:
Going by the team list, it looks as though we are the northern most team coming to Monty. It had better not be raining. I wanna come down south for this weekend and actually dry out!!! Too bad for all the teams going to BTB in Boston. It'll probably still be raining there with no chance of drying out ones self on Saturday.. |
Re: 2006 Monty Madness - Spread the Word!!!
it seems that MORT is signed up for Beantown and Monty... how is that possible?
