Re: Archimedes!!!
 
I'm always excited about the championships.
Alot of familiar teams from last year.
As I learned from last year (when Archie was considered the toughest division. Perhaps ever) Just because you don't have the strongest division doesn't mean Archie doesn't have a chance to take it all.
WHole divisions don't go to Einstien. A three team allaince does and that team could be better than what comes out of those "tougher" divisions ( As Archie learned last year).

I think this is the first time we have been in Archimedes.

But this division doesn't look weak at all. We have metal being motioned towards a flock of chickens dressed in pink doing a thunder dance while being chased by a swarm of KillerBees, while the chief watches a technical panther, who is stalking a hookie but carefully eyes the guard which is directly behind Mr Roboto ... who views his newfound home in amazement :yikes: and an eagle playing chess with the cat just eXclaimed a cyclone is moving in!

Its going to be fun!

is there a difference between each division? i have no clue man. i was thinking it was separated by what part of the US they were from, but that isnt it.

Teams get sorted into their division by their team number, If you look at the list most of the time every fourth team is in the same division (where that doesn't happen theres usually a team pending and they will fill in the missing spot for each division).

If you look at the 8 lowest number teams:
1 Galileo
4 Archimedes
9 Curie
11 Newton
16 Galileo
20 Archimedes
22 Curie
25 Newton

every fourth team

At least thats how I understand it working.

Re: Archimedes!!!
 
has anyone compiled the stats to see how many:

regional winners
EI winners
chairmans winners
past national winners
regional award winners


are in our division? or any other helpful stats to stack our division against the others? think it would be pretty interesting to see ;)

Re: Archimedes!!!
 
The division has 2 of the 3 winners from VCU. Ought to make for some fun times.

I'm sitting in my class waiting for the boredom to end and putting together different teams on alliances. We may have fewer "Awesome Robots" but the stategy coming out of these matches should make for some fun times Friday night, trying to figure out who you want to be alligned with.

We, Team 233 are one that you missed. We won the Chairman's Award at the UCF regional. Also, interestingly, we have been in Archimedes every year since about 1999. The chances of that happening are 4 to the 7th. power or something like that.

The only difference as far as I can see is that it's a longer trek to Archimedes, since it's usually all the way across the Georgia dome from the robot entrance.

Re: Archimedes!!!
 
I can't believe Atlanta is NEXT WEEK already. While team 1675 may not have qualified to get in, I'm extremely glad I pushed for us to take advtage of the opening of tier #1 - the teams my kids will be exposed to in this division (and the others of course) and have a chance to directly interact with are some of the teams that I am continually inspired by year after year. While I have a feeling that our robot will perform better than ever in the dome, the people the kids will meet and knowledge from the conferences they will gain will be an invaluable experience. Archimedes will be represented well and be the best we can be! ARCHI-MEDES! ARCHI-MEDES!

The whol thing snuck upon me. Right now I'm in a state of dissarray. English Paper due the Monday before, persuasive speech and 8 Hour Workday the TUESDAY before. (My Brain is either asleep due to allergy medicine or hyper thanks to caffeine.)

Can't wait for the madness and and insanity.

Hey all...

Arch from what I can see has a lot of the same teams that were in
Curie last year (us, X-cats,killer bees,etc.) Somehow we've dodged the triplets and team 25. 401 was in Arch last year and I'm glad to be with them
this year. Too bad 1598 is'nt with us again like at VCU. I had hoped we had gotten Galileo because Jeff Seaton is the MC, But I'm happy with what we got.

Am looking forward to the trip...VCU was better the second time around because we had a larger team this year I had more free time.
Last year was so hectic at Atlanta not being there before with a small
team. I think this year will be better.

While Arch might be far away from the Dome entrance...its the closest
(ala the pits) walking without the robot) from the GWCC to the Dome.

This is The Holy Cows' first time in Atlanta. Everyone is really excited! We'll be coming with our 'Got FIRST?' t-shirts and some other cool give aways. We'll also be traveling with our mascot, a cow!

Avg Scoring about 15 pts from dumping

I will personally vouch for the fact that 1138 can play defense, they were excellent at BAE and pushed around any one who got in their way.

1.) 1568 The Mechanicatz
2.) We are a shooter
3.) 10
4.) No problem, have also helped others up.
5.) multiple defensive modes including high speed to beat dumper to the corner, and high speed to get to robot then high torque to push them away from the goal (watch our semifinal matches (2 and 3) from boston to see) Since boston I wrote an auto mode that wil score 4-6 in the center (camera aimed) It works in the debugger but is untested, It hould be available for use friday.
6.) Great speed in high gear, can Push almost any one in low.
7.) Not sure, I am sure the number is very low but will be higher in atlanta, we didn't get all of the bugs worked out untill saturday in boston and by then all of our partners wanted us to play defense.
8.) 42 inches off the ground
9.) camera aimed (pan and tilt) with manual over ride option.
10.) I will post as soon as I find one

You want us to make your scouting really easy, don't you? OK, I guess I'll help.

1. The Pink Team, Team 233
2. Shooter
3. 25 or so
4. Yes
5. Yes
6. 7-8 FPS/pretty good/pretty good
7. Not sure
8. High

Re: Archimedes!!!
 
1. 226 - TEC CReW Hammerheads
2. Shooter
3. 12 or 13
4. Yes, have also helped others up
5. We should be able to shoot in auto from any starting position.
6. 6-7 fps/very good/good
7. Not sure, I didn't keep stats for our team. Our offensive power rating is 19.84 (11th out of 63 at Great Lakes) if that means anything.
If shooter:
8. The fly wheel is low in the center of the bot to keep the CG low, but the ball exits at the top to make it (near) impossible to block.
9. Both. The drivers have a button that switches been manual aim and auto aim.

karinka13 19-04-2006 19:29

Re: Archimedes!!!
 
just touching up on what alicia said already:

yes, we DO have autonomous modes.
1. dump balls in corner goal
2. shoot on center goal from middle position (problems with this thanks to an unfocused camera, but we fixed that so it *should* be working just perfect now)

and yeah, the camera's fixed. but if it breaks again, we do have manual that works well.

and as far as power, yeah we dont have so much. BUT! we do have brakes. and they sorta keep us in place.

Hey team 103,

glad to see you made the list, maybe we'll get to be alliance partners again and take down 25 on einstein this time instead of allying with them :p , i would love to face them, unfortunately our team never got to in jersey, but im also looking forward to playing with/against 486 and 375 again

see you there and good luck

Hey all,

Attatched is an excel spreadsheet with the top 15 seeds from each regional, the Radioshack Innovation in Control award from each regoinal, and the finalists and champions from each regional penciled in for the teams fom our division. It also has the offensive power ranking for each team

Enjoy,

P. S.: For whoever is having problems, right click on the link, save as..., and paste division rankings.xls instead of attatchment.php.

1. Team name and number

Greyhound Revolutionary Robotics, 973

2. Shooter/Dumper

Shooter

3. How many balls can you approx. hold?

between 15-20, can't place at the min but it's orginized, not just jumbled.

4. Ramp capabilities?

Can push others up and get up ourselves.

5. Effective autonomous Mode(s)?

Not tested on the court (yet) but it existes.

6. Speed/Power/Maneuverability

Two speed, so fast and pushing, powerful in lowgear fixxing highgear to be much better, should have good agility.

7. Average scoring?

If shooter: New shooting mech that is very nice. Should be able to get all, or atleast most, of our balls in, and it should be rapid.

8. Shooter location

Middle of robot, should be able to get over other robots infront of us.

9. Camera/Manual

Both. Manual override incase the camera gets blocked.

10. Post a picture of the robot if you can!
