I predict that most of the predictions are wrong.

Oh come on Kevin, quit sucking up to the head ref! I don't think it will get you anywhere (but of course if it does, bring us along for the ride so we can share the repeat victory with you :) ).

*ahem* What? Is Andy the head ref? I had no idea...:D

Besides Mike, it's more likely we'll be looking to you to bring us along for the ride to the repeat.

We shouldn't have any rules issues at the IRI. We have a new team member in charge of rules compliance and we're going to bring him along with us to the competition. His name is Ben Franklin, and he's been known to do a VERY good job at helping avoid DQ's.

Chris,

My understanding is that Ben was actually planning to join the judges for the IRI, in order to remain completely impartial. I'm certain that while Andy pays closer attention to Team 45 (only natural), Ben will be looking out for us.

A couple of things about the IRI

1. If you can we would appreciate your teams using the concessions in the facility. The proceeds go in full to next years rookie team “Team Lawrence”. So the money you spend there is going to a good cause. The group that is working the concessions will be the team leaders for this new team so encourage them when you get a chance.

2. There will be shirts for sale at $6.00 per shirt. We are working on getting all the teams listed on the back of the shirt so you can brag to the fact that your team competed in one of the strongest pound for pound tournaments around. These are very nice shirts for $6.00

3. Due to some late sponsorships there may be few extra $’s left after the tournament is over so the three host teams have agreed to take the left over and offer a scholarship to a student on a team that attended the IRI this year. This is still in the planning stage and applications hopefully will be available at the competition. No word on the value amount yet.

4. You may want to bring a power strip and a small extension cord. You will have access to one outlet at your pit area.

5. Enjoy your stay here in Indy and I can’t wait till next Friday.

all teams, please note what he just said.

and here is what the logo for the t-shirts that we are selling will look like. fanning outward from the state will also be all of the team names that are attending. a nice souvineer to take home. they are also going to be priced at a VERY low. i'll post another updated version once we get it.

At least it isn't bright yellow... hehe. Actually I think the state that should be shown should best represent the teams that are attending. I think that MI takes 13/28 spots. We should therefore change the name to MRI and have an outline of the Great Lakes State. Anyone with me here?

Since it's being held in Indiana, I have no qualms about it being called the IRI. I do, however, appreciate the nice tribute to the wolverine state with the color scheme. :D

Hrm, you guys have to push it dont you? :D

Lets read from the book of Baker, modified for the situation:

"OK, then why don't you wear your "Michigan Robotics Invitational" shirt instead? Oh, yeah... you can't do that, 'cause there ISN'T one!

I think that you're just jealous of the fact that the Hoosier state is much more technologically advanced than the Wolverine's . "
:D

I'm trying to recall some of the chapters, like..

1. How to drive a cheap, crappy car.
2. You too can misplace tools at the TechnoKat shop.
3. Pig wrestling is fun!
4. Hicks are people too.
5. Yes, the Universtiy of Evansville DOES have an engineering school.

Kidding aside...

Speaking of books, I'll have have a 37-page copy of the TechnoKats' latest white paper available for each team who is attending the IRI. It's called...

"6 Motor Drive Assembly w/ Pneumatic Shifting of 4:1 Gearbox"

I just got it done, and it looks nifty.

Andy B.

there is also going to be a special guest (or 2) attending the IRI.:D

Yeah, I am so excited to see these shirts...they should be awesome...hmmmm...i wonder who these guests are gonna be...it should be fun.

Katelyn

if you by some way know, or you were in Andy Bakers email, PLEASE don't say who the special guests are!!! it's going to be exciting to see everyones reaction when they arrive to the competition. :cool:

Special Guests eh...? This should be interesting... I'm predicting.. Sigfried and Roy?

It has to be the Incredible Klements' Racing Sausages !!! Sausage Race!!!:D
