Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

By what you've seen today (Thursday), how do you think your robot will match up to the rest?

I think we'll do well. We've gotten up almost every ramp, and are able to get 5-7 tubes on per match. I especially like one match where the only tubes on the rack were six blues in a row, all hung by our team.

They are a very friendly and humble team.
It's too bad we haven't come of late. The timing of week 3 was bad for us. We usually attend at least one regional together, but just not this year.

good luck to you all!:D

omg! i couldnt believe dean kamen was actually there!!! it was pretty exciting!!! our team got a picture with him and i have to say, my life is complete now!!! I LOVE YOU DEAN KAMEN!!!

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

we are going to see him in May when he checks out the arena for the 2008 Hawaii regional!:p

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

ok, im gonna try to convince our team to go that regional

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

Dean Kamen was there!? Another reason why I wish I could've been there yesterday.

Oh well, I'm all set to head out to the Event Center, ready for my first ever regional!:)

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

Why isn't the webcast up? It says technical difficulties but it's almost lunch there, I want to see what's going on!

What a day...

One keeper was scored today at SVR by 846, congrats to them.

Standings are currently unavailable, all I really know is that 115 is 38th out of 48 teams...tough day for us, half the drivetrain failed, forced us to be a no show for one match, and we faced 114 too many times, with that good robot that they have.

But I'm optimistic, we did better the last few matches, and we'll be ready to come back tomorrow with what we really got.

Other teams that did great in my opinion: 100, 254, 668, 190, 852 and there's probably some more, but I forget.

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

How about the hawaiian team 368? Just curious as there is no access to results or video of today.

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

They did fairly well in the competition (can't remember exact record), and also won two awards... congrats to them :)

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

Any updates on awards? The FIRST site isn't displaying them.

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

Was it the website award, because they had an awesome website! :D

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

Too bad that some of these teams (at least 190 and 254) are ranked lower than they should be.

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

Hey guys,
The SVR website currently doesn't have the match results for the mathes. Does anyone happen to have them? I don't even need the teams that played, just the final score.

Re: 2007 Silicon Valley Regional
 

The match assigning system really messes up the correlation between ranking and robot ability. It's true for many teams, including those you mentioned (and us, and some other teams). Alliance selections will really showcase how well teams scout and make decisions.
