And I'm sure if they don't seed their gun will be for hire...

Sorry I know it's not my division, but I can't pass on stupid musical references :D

And let's not forget defensive teams who shut down triplets for lunch :D !

I'm really surprised about one team though. 118 has only been mentioned a few times, and the only time 118 didn't score in autonomous was when they got rammed so hard there robot turned around.

Also, does anyone have video of 237, especially in autonomous? I've heard they shot in auto, and considering their past autonomouses, and teaser video, they must be fairly good at it.

Re: Gali-leo!
 

I would everyone to watch the finals of the Lone Star Regional in the NASA archive. We have 3 teams from the Finals: 231 (AC Champion), 118 (AC Finalist), and 418. It took 3 matches to decide it between these great bots.

Re: Gali-leo!
 

im not quite sure if there are any videos up of us up yet, im sure there will be though. also we shot well in auton at the UTC regional, we had alot of camera problems at the Chesapeake regional partially due to the fact there was alot of natural light.

Re: Gali-leo!
 

231 builds quality robots. They had two robots pushing on them and still were able to score balls. And not to mention, when they bring out the defensive game they can dominate.

118 got autonomous working just before the eliminations, and it worked out amazingly. Those finals at lone star are great matches, quite competitive, it's a shame 118 had to end it fallen over.

Re: Gali-leo!
 

I'm definitely very psyched about this, and I know I can speak for the team and say that the same is true of the rest of us. There're some great teams on our field, and I'm not going to try and name any because I haven't been keeping up enough to be fair. But a shout-out to High Voltage! Team 231, our fabulous Alliance Captain and quite a force to be reckoned with, let me tell you.

I just finished my last English class of the semester, already finished my last business class and last statistics class, and turned in 4 college credit hours worth of community service (needed 200, turned in 350 in FIRST alone). Going to my last Humanities class at 2:30. My finals start tomorrow, I am supposed to have finals on Thurs and Fri, but I am taking them early on Mon and Tues so I can go... Study Study Study this weekend... Anyway, It just occurred to me one week from this moment I'll be done with stress of school, and be focused on stress of robotics. HERE WE GO, I'm PSYCHED

This is going to be fun to watch

a regional winner in every match will be fun to see

Re: Gali-leo!
 

wow, u saved me a lot of time. but im working on a webpage for galileo (through CooneyRobotics) which will display all awards, regionals attended (including standing, record, and PPR), and hopefully, a picture for every robot.

Re: Gali-leo!
 

i was a volunteer at the Philly regional helping wiht team queing. one thing i noticed in the elimnation rounds is that that by the elimination rounds, the philly teams started to play more and more defense. and if i remember correctly, the winning alliance, was a very defensive alliance. and there was only one shooter in either of the alliances in the finals. i figured since philly was in the last week of regionals, many teams did their scouting and found strategies to to stop great shooting teams(such as 103, 272, 341, 365, 433, teams which dominated qualifying rounds). but in earlier regionals, many shooting teams won.
so the question is, what type of game do you feel is going to be played at championships. more defense, or more offense?

Re: Gali-leo!
 

More offense. There are so many strong shooters, especially in GALI

Re: Gali-leo!
 

I think in a Regional you tend to see that because the team pool is only half of what it will be in the Championship divisions. I believe this game will end up very similar to last years, you will be able to win with one or two robots playing defense during the Qualifications. Once the divisions move to Einstein the game will be predominantly offensive, just as last years was. There will be many good 3-scorer alliances in the divisional playoffs.
