Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Eh, why would you ever want to leave? :P

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Hopefully I'll be able to go to my very first IRI this summer. It's just a matter of actually getting there that I have to figure out. It sounds like it's gonna be a lot of fun, and I really hope I can get there to see it play out. See y'all soon! :-)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

What's the deadline for that?

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Feel free to PM me with any questions or shoot an e-mail to that address.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Oooh man. I wanna do this xD! Which day is the talent show happening?

I just found out that my team isn't going to IRI 'cause of the cost of the trip ): Anyone wanna drive and harbor a small girl that doesn't take up much room?

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Since I am now going to IRI I have 3 seat available for anyone in Rochester who wants to go (and you have to be in the ROchester area. I am not going out of my way to pick anyone up).

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Maybe small, but your voice makes up for it ;)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

It's time for a 2007 IRI update. The event date of July 20-21 will be here before we know it. The organizing committee met last night, and these things were decided:

1. We respectfully say THANK YOU to the 100 teams who have applied to attend this year's IRI.

2. 72 teams will be invited to compete.
....... yes, this is an increase from our previous cap of 66 teams
....... these teams will be sent an email today (Monday, 5/7), inviting them to compete
....... once invitations are sent out, the team list will be posted on this site and http://www.indianaroboticsinvitational.org
....... these 72 teams do not include the "Pre-Rookie Challenge" to take place during Saturday's lunch.

3. 28 teams are on the "wait list"
....... 8 of these teams may be bumped from the wait list to the invite list, depending if any or some of the 72 teams get their registration money in by June 1st
....... these list of these 8 top wait list teams will be posted on this site and the IRI site.
....... current invited teams who do not have their registration money in by June 1st will be listed at the bottom of the 28 team wait list
....... emails to all of these wait list teams will be sent out today (Monday, 5/7)

4. Each attending team will have 8 qualification matches.

5. There will be NO "mentor matches"
....... we chose to eliminate these matches in order to justify adding more teams (up from 66 to 72) and to give all teams 8 matches in that they can compete with their best drive teams.

6. Alliance picking and substitute management for the elimination rounds will be as such:
....... The first two rounds of alliance selection will be 1-8, 1-8
....... A 3rd round of alliance selection has been added, so alliances can choose their substitute. This selection will be 8-1.
....... 3 teams from each alliance will play in each match
....... There will be no requirement of playing all teams on the alliance. One team may not play an elimination round match, although the alliance may even win the event.

7. 2007 "Rack and Roll" rules will be tweaked a bit:
....... a 15 point bonus will be added for each scored Keeper
....... clear definitions of high speed ramming, pinning, and tipping will be communicated within a few weeks
....... tubes contacting robots in the home zone and affecting "supported" robots will be deflated or removed in order to determine if robots are truly supported

8. IRI invited team selection criteria is as follows:
....... Indiana teams who signed up on May 1st or 2nd
....... Teams who attended IRI in the past were appreciated for their loyalty (more years attended meant more favoritism... we always say that this event is great due to the teams who attend year after year)
....... current year best regional performance and Championships performance were considered
....... Regional Chairman's Award teams were given credit
....... teams who added substantial enhancement to IRI were given credit also

We appreciate all of the teams who want to attend the IRI and also the people who will travel in to Indianapolis to assist and enjoy this event. We would like to grant all teams the ability to compete at our event, but we simply could not make this event bigger than 72 teams. We tried to make our selection process as fair and quantifiable as we could.

Sincerely,
Andy Baker
on behalf of the IRI leadership committee

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Andy, thanks for the update! A quick question though, how many "Pre-Rookie Challenge" teams have signed up as of yet? If you can disclose this information as of this time that is.

Jay

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Right now we have between 6 and 8 pre-rookie teams who plan to compete.
We hope this grows before July 20.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I'm devastated that there will be no mentor round. I wanted to play. OK, being more serious, I understand eliminating the mentor round for the sake of better competition, with teams using their "regular," and presumably best drivers for all matches.

I'm not too crazy about the 4-team alliances without the requirement that all teams play at least one match in each round. If I'm reading this correctly, there will be the possibility be of an official "winner" that doesn't play a single match in the elimination rounds. Am I correctly interpreting this?

Anyway, thanks for all the work putting together a great event. See you in July.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

That's the way I read it.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Yes. Weighing the pros and cons of each scenario, we have decided that it is better to have no requirement to play all teams on the alliance.

Andy B.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I was wondering, is there any planned modification to the "random" match scheduling system? Or will it be run the same way as it was at The Championship.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

This is being worked on. I believe that FIRST is working with 4FX to accomodate the need for more randomness and other flexible features in the scoring system. These changes are targeted for not only IRI, but other events as well.

Andy B.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

YES!! Clear rules that are equitable for all and don't unfairly penalize teams for minor misfortune. Thank you for planning to clarify what consitutes ramming, pinning and tipping.

(Keeps fingers crossed in hopes of receiving an invite!)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Props to the IRI planning committee for getting through this very quickly, it really helps teams get their details set.

I cannot believe this event will have 72 teams, amazing.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

has the wait list come out yet? i looked on the website but i couldn't find either list. im probabily just blind and missed it.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

we have started a new thread with the official team list and first 9 on the wait list.

the web site will be updated later tonight.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

We are disappointed - it was almost 2 whole minutes between David sending the Invitation letter and the team list being posted.... ;)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

This looks like this is going to be the best IRI yet. There are so many awesome teams that were invited. This is going to be a blast!!!!! Hope to see everyone in July:)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Oops.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

after reviewing the IRI team list. I'm feeling a national highscore, maybe breaking 400?

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

No way... no way... there's going to be some very even alliances at the competition and I see no domination in any match.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

When you see the teams that were NOT invited, you really get a feeling for how awesome this IRI field actually is. There are teams that were division semi-finalists in the '07 Championships that didn't make the cut.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

nice timing on your last post Kit.
mike d

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Anyone have any idea how the heck the Israeli team is going to get their robot to IRI??

Are they shipping to the high school ahead of time?

I believe they get the award for the most distance ever traveled to come to summer competition... Good luck.


Chris C.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

That list of teams scares me. I thought Curie was tough, but with a new algororithim I think we're gonna need to dial 911 because the state of Indiana will be on fire by the time IRI has a winner.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Hey maybe this time the fire alarm will actually be useful then. :D

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Let's just say I'm going to need a lot of batteries...

:p

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

It is so cool that team 1577 can attend - definitely the long distance award.

They are going to take their robot apart and bring it in their luggage. We will loan them batteries (maybe other teams can also bring along a spare?). We are working out a place for them to rebuilt before Friday morning.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Looks like i will be heading to the midwest for the first time without being there just to catch a lay-over flight outta Chicago...

I just put in a voice mail at work so i dont forget to ask for the days off...

This is going to be one great summer...

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Man, I can't tell when Fultz is kidding and when he's serious. I suppose if there are 10-12 people, each with parts, this could work. We can have an assembly party on the playing field carpet Thursday night. (one year, we watched movies from our sleeping bags on the carpet after IRI setup on Thursday night)

We are working on a shipping setup with BAX Global, who has supported IRI since 2002. Information on this may be a while to come forward (week or two?), since I just started talking to BAX today.

Andy B.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Actually, this time I am serious. Really.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Chris,

Team 1114 would love to help with this assembly party. If you need us, you've got us. This is the kind of thing we love doing.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I'd be up to getting another day off just to help out them put their robot back together! I don't know how my parents or the other people in my group would react... heh.

Wow... how are they going to explain that trying to get through customs?

"What's in your bag?" "A gripper, some ramps, motors, control board, wheels, and lots of metal. It's all fragile and you had better not lose it!!" "Okay, well, um... I don't know what to say. Why didn't you ship it here?" "Would you want to pay shipping from Israel to Indiana? Didn't think so..." *Metal detectors beep loudly* "Okay, I'll have to let you go then."

Oh God, that would be one fun trip. Especially getting into the country.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

so why was the alarm pulled last year?

oh and I can't wait It's going to be a blast last year a friend and I made movies on the way up, heck I plan on doing the talent show too!

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

A certain [Indiana] team shot it with a poof ball.... :rolleyes:

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

ok, so I tried for mmm oh 2 minutes not to say it - but...

this year IRI will be armed and ready

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I am planning on attending again for the 4th time. You just can't miss IRI. Chris, if they need help, please let me know. I would love to sit there and do what I do best. =)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Some ductwork came loose in another part of the building, and blew hot air right onto a heat sensor. This caused the alarm to go off. We had to evacuate the entire building until the fire department declared an all clear.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

They can use our shop.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Yes, Chris is very serious!!

We have found a simple and effective way to take our robot apart into 5-6 pieces (plus bumpers and extra parts), so every team member will have one piece of luggage and 1 robot part. One of our team member's father can do the packaging, so it all works out.
We will have to coordinate this with the airlines prior to our flight, but we don't expect any special problems (at least not on the transatlantic flight).

Karthik, it would be great if you and anyone else willing to can help us. It would be great if the assembly goes quickly. We estimate it will take 2 hours max to assemble and test the robot.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I know I will be in Indy on Thursday evening, if you need help let me know. That goes for everyone else too.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Can I get a clarification on auto mode? Is it 15 pts for every tube scored in auto mode? So if there are 3 tubes scored would the bonus be 45 or 15?

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

You are correct. Each Keeper scored during auto mode is worth an additional 15 bonus points, on top of the 2 rack points.

Andy B.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Thanks alot Andy.:)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

West Coast Teams (or individuals who are going): How are you planning to get to IRI? I'd love to go, but my team isn't making the trip, so I'm looking around for alternatives or other ideas.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Flights are pretty cheap as far as airfare from the west coast goes right now.

The flights we've been looking at are around $240 round trip, nonstop from SFO.

Driving isn't really an option, unless you're planning on taking a couple weeks to sightsee along the way and such, as it's something like 28 hours from the bay area to Indy.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

"Take exit 304 to merge onto I-80 E toward Cheyenne
Passing through Wyoming, Nebraska
Entering Iowa

1,053 mi"

Yup, everytime 1,053 miles shows up in your directions is a little scary. If you can save up money to get a flight, and figure out a way to share hotel and get picked up, you can go to IRI!

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I got the same prices from LAX. The airfair IS actually pretty cheap as of right now. That i would say is the most convenient way to get yourself to IRI. That's what I'm doing. ;)

When it comes to lodging, best you could do is ask around? Maybe ask others on your team if they want to go with.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Well, hotels near IRI are actually surprisingly cheap. I checked on Kayak.com, and there are about 5 hotels under a mile away by road, and about 1/2 mile cutting through parking lots. I'm not sure how great the Super 8 or Candlewood Suites, but they are only going for about $80 a night.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Did you call the Super 8 Castleton directly and ask for the IRI rate? I think queen suites (2 queen beds, pullout sofa, fridge, and microwave) are going for $69 + tax. I believe there are cheper rates for smaller rooms, as low as $49 a night for a single.

We've stayed at both the Super 8 and Candlewood. Both are clean and suitable hotels, if you're not looking for the Ritz. The Candlewood is slightly better quality but is also more expensive. It's also more of a standard hotel with a single building and room doors opening into interior hallways, while the Super 8 rooms are divided into a number of 2-story buildings with doors opening to the outdoors. The Super 8 has an outdoor pool and offers a complimentary continental breakfast.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I didn't. I was getting $80 including taxes from various online sites, and $67 for AAA members I believe. But hmm, $69 for a room that sleeps 4+....

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Which airlines are you guys looking at? I looked up Southwest (as their usually pretty cheap) and they have it at about $360 for a round trip.

I'd like to take that roadtrip, however that would require finding at least a few other people from who want to go and have the time to kill. I doubt I'll find enough of those within my team. Anyone down for a 30 hour roadtrip? :P

Thanks.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Team 537 plans on taking a camping trip. There is a campground about 1/2 hour away from the event. This cuts way down on cost since we can probably fit our whole travel team (about 10-15 for IRI) into 1 or 2 20 dollar campgrounds :yikes:

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

They actually said 6 per room was ok :ahh: - you should call to confirm that. I think they're bonkers to allow 6 typically-insane FIRST children to occupy one room, but hey.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

We've done 6 people to a room before....... It's not too bad. Just make sure you like ALL of the people you are rooming with...

Jacob

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I think it was Airtran. I've been searching for flights using www.qixo.com and www.kayak.com.

SFO is by far the cheapest airport in the Bay Area. SJC and OAK were both around $100+ more than SFO, with non direct flights.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Wow. $239 it is. My chances of coming to IRI just increased. A lot.
Awesome. Thank you very much.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Forgive me if this question has already been answered, but what are the rules on safety glasses in the pits and on the field at IRI this year?

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

My guess would be the same as any other regional; must be worn at all times on the field and in the pits *shrug*

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

The KOA is a very nice campground. I stayed there last year, but it rained so much that our tents flooded and we missed half of the Saturday competition. Team 107 will be staying there, too, and my parents and I will probably visit them on Friday night.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

when will we know what the matches will be in?

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I'm not sure if i understood your question,

I think you were asking: "when will i know what match numbers my team will be participating in?"

If thats the case, then its just like another FRC competition (like the St. Louis regional, for example. You just show up with your robot, team, and GP, and there will be a match schedule there for you.

Best of luck to everyone at the IRI!

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

This is going to look spam-tastic, but I promise it's not!
Remember for convenience, once you've sorted out your travel plans, come post in the IRI Travel Arrangements Thread, so we can all figure out rides to/from the airport together.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Im pumped to be attending my FIRST ever IRI in my 7 year FIRST career!!
I will become a member of 126 for the trip!

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Match list will be published and released on Friday morning, after we confirm all teams have arrived.

The goal is to only release one list this year.... :)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

It's good to have a goal.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I love goals. I wave as they pass by :D

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

As a scout, I can not wait to see the match list. It is going to be freakin incredible!

IRI Talent Show!
 

Remember everyone, the deadline for IRI Talent Show submissions is tomorrow, July 10th! With more teams than ever, I was sure we'd have more entries than last year - but at the moment, we don't! Hurry up, persuade your friends, come up with something funny, and send an e-mail to Talent@IndianaRoboticsInvitational.org describing your act and any equipment you may need (microphones, etc.). It's one of the highlights every year and you can be a part of it!

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I am obviously way behind the times here, but what is the official ruling on ramp bots and lifters? I searched all over for an official rulebook for IRI but I couldn't find it. Does lifting still give the same amount of points? Does it give any points?

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

There was no rule change regarding ramps and lifts. Each 'bot over 4" gets 15 points and each 'bot over 12" gets 30 points. We never planned to change that rule. (that's why you could not find any information about it)

I did hear a silly rumor a few weeks ago that freaked people out on this, but there is no rule change regarding ramps.

The biggest rule change for IRI is that scoring a Keeper in Autonomous is worth more: 15 points. This was announced 2 months ago. Each individual Keeper will give that team's alliance a 15 point bonus. Therefore, the maximum Keeper bonus 1 alliance could get is 45 points (if they scored all 3, of course).

Andy B.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Didn't you guys change if there was a tube under the ramp or robot that it would still count? just double checking.:)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Yes, but that is not a big rule change... it's just a common sense approach to what "supporting the robot" is. If a robot is touching a tube, and the tube is removed, then if the robot is still supported, then you get the points for the height you are positioned.

We are working on a "2007 IRI rules document". This will be sent out within a few days.

----

Still regarding IRI, but changing subjects, one registered and paid team just informed us that they cannot compete. 229 has withdrawn their entry. Some of their team members are attending, but they are not competing.

The next team on the waiting list, team 1739 from Chicago, has been asked if they want to compete in 229's spot. We will know shortly if they are in or not.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Any word when the volunteer positions are going to be released?

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I am also anxiously awaiting them to be released!

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

volunteer list is coming.
assume you are needed if you registered.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Yay! I'm needed for once!

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

is there a webcast and where

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I hope so. Although I'm going to be there, I still love to have all of those videos.

Finally, after seeing the end of the tunnel of my 4-H projects (or is that a train?), I'm starting to get jittery about IRI. By Thursday, I'm going to need a good, looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong bike ride to calm my nerves. I'm just starting to jump up and down in anticipation already!:D

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

This just in... I'll be pit announcer again! I had a blast last year and got many compliments. I'm looking forward to doing it again. (A little mishap at the campground involving water and tents kept me away from the mic on Saturday. No tents this year!)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Will there be a webcast?

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Have volunteer assignments been sent out yet? I definitely registered back in May, but I haven't heard anything back.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

They were sent out yesterday.

I'm attaching what was sent to me.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Oh NO! My name's spelled wrong! Oh well... not the first time. Man it's a boring day... lol.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I just got back from shopping for the school supplies and backpack. That was fun. Too many choices though - I was very proud of the fact that I stuck to the list - that is rare. I didn't purchase anything fuzzy, furry, or funny. *sigh*

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I did the same thing tonight with my Mom (she's 81) - I think she was recalling doing this about 40 years ago, for yours truly. She picked out a pretty cool backpack, while I got the "boring stuff".

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Does anyone know what color this years IRI shirts are going to be? I need to plan to match accordingly. :p

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Hopefully something darker this year. I have my light green and light blue shirts still. Need something darker... black would be cool.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I'm curious, too. I need to buy haircolor accordingly. :p

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

The FIRST rule in geek fashion: All color combinations are allowed!;)

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Of course! I forgot that one! Hm... methinks since Lacey won't be there, I'll touch a dab of pink, baby blue, and lime green in there. :ahh:

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Michelle, Jeremiah just may have something here....

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

I believe that the good folks of Wildstang are providing the webcast again this year.

Here is the link.

"Wildstang, I think I love you"

Also, regarding IRI t-shirts... I forget the color, but I am fairly sure that there will be many comments regarding them. You'll see. We were inspired by a comment made at a presentation at this year's Manchester kickoff.

Andy B.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
 

Can we guess what it is?

Is it mauve?
