Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I called a friend on the field and told them to tell someone whats going on.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Did you? Thanks for helping out us poor Curie people who probably want to kick the webcast.

I tried calling some of my mentors and a few of my teammates down there, and haven't been able to get ahold of them.


Curie wants some love =P

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Alliance Selections (without sound) are up for Curie.

It's still doing the frame by frame thing though.

At least we've got something Curie!

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Curie is up right now on the NASA channal for those who have it.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

noooooo I must fix my flux capacitor, go back in time and make 1305 pick 1114 :D

Either way. WOOOO! :D

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

You appear to have lost someone.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

All thats left for me is to cheer for Team 100 (got to support the fellow Orange California teams after all, besides they're nice people) and Team Voltage (Scouted them last year, they gave me a zip-tie, I wont ever forget that a tiewrap and a ziptie are the same thing now, thanks guys, nice team)

I just hope they don't face off, I wouldnt know what to cheer for.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Fixed. Thanks. :)

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

CURIE IS BACK :):):)

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

After alliance selections of course. =P

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

meh, the fun part is coming up anyways.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

WOW Galileio is insane!

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I really like the split screen on Newton during autonomous

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I agree....the split screen really helps to show what's happening. They should do it for the end game too, so we can see ramp action (or lack thereof).

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

They were playing duck-duck-goose on Galileo during the time-out... I wanna play, too!:D

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

that arm is amazing!!

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

anyone else's webcast is a little laggy... i'm rebuffering minute or so on a Comcast cable internet connection....

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

yea mines is a bit laggy. and im rebuffin every 20 seconds or so on a comcast cable connection.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Mine is silky smooth up here in Canada.
Edit: I've even been downloading a torrent at 250k/s for the last 20 minutes.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I want to go to regionals in Honolulu!

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Pick, Hawaii or Atlanta. Most teams don't have enough for both. (We don't at least)

I hope my team goes with Atlanta, meet more people. =D

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I would say Atlanta as well. But Hawaii would be pretty nice =P

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Yeah, but imagine the sand in the robot, gears would get jammed, cameras gunky.... etc. :ahh:

Yeah, it would be alot of fun. But I don't want to blow my budget on one regional, when I could go to like, 3.

In the mean time, must... stop... dancing to FIRST music. It just gets it stuck in my head more. Anyone else having this problem? :rolleyes:

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I was wondering a few weeks ago why GM had never won the Founder's award.

Also, I need to start a company, because that trophy looks even awesomer than the regional WFA.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I'm not on a team, so it's kind of a non-issue.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Oh the sand @_@ That could cause some problems. But yeah, I understand what you mean when you could go to 3 instead of one.

And I'm having that problem too with the music!

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Wow, DQ on Einstein! I don't think I've ever seen that before.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

"I don't have a cockroach in my presentation.... "

I will remember this line forever. Thank you Autodesk.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I don't think I've ever seen it before either. It was for excessive ramming, right?

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Is it just me, or can no one say "Underwriters Laboratory" correctly?

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

That line made me giggle XD

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

excessive flipping, i think

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I don't think that it would have mattered. The score may have changed but the result would have been the same (34 - 32) I believe.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Oh, I know. But it is still suprising.

Looks like the idea that ramps wouldn't be a difference maker on einstein was wrong.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Not necessarily. Did you see the 2nd match in that semi? With hardly any time left 2 of the bots (233 and 179) came storming up thier alliance partner's ramp to give them 60 BP to win! We now have our first final alliance.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Right, which would support my point that ramps are, in fact, a difference maker on einstein.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

only thing is that usually both sides will be ramping

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Newton are in fianls now =]

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

That... that is an awsome hat.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

NOO! Nasa Tv is done. booo

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I'm still seeing it at http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/robotics/

And yes, that is one awesome hat

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

I'm so thrilled for 178!!!!

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

NASA Tv cut out last year just before the last match, too. *sigh* I was really enjoying it, too.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Newton takes it 72-58, bringing it to a third match. And ramping remains a critical factor.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Boo on NASA's Part....My father, a fellow mentor and I were shocked when they cut out....I and I imagine many others really wanted to see these last few moments of the season in good quality NASA Satellite TV.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Red alliance takes it 59 54

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Newton wins...

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

WOW - that was sooooo close!!! Big props to both alliances - truly exciting finish.

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

YAY for 190, 177, and 987! I'm so happy for them! And what a match!

And next, the best part of the year. I love watching chairmans get announced!

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

But thank god for the webcast....those were some awesome matches....Nice one Newton

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Here's two photos of some 190 team members with their Championship trophy.

Congrats 190, 987 and 177, what an awesome comeback!

Re: 2007 Championship Webcast
 

Congrats to MOE 365 for winning National Chairman's award!
