My mentor/coach yelled at us we we did it in one of the matches because we tore the tennis balls right off the top. Btw, anyone from 1370 or 237 is always welcome to stop by our pit in Atlanta just ask for Dustin, I'm always close, or just look for the dude in the orange and blue with the fro.

Anyway, 816 should have some more surprises in store for Atlanta, just keep an eye out.;)

There is always a spot at Ramp Riot for teams like yours.

We will deffinately be there. I tried to congratulate some of your members for the Chairmans win when leaving on Saturday but they all seemed to excited and some looked to be crying. But you guys deserve it. See you guys in Atlanta. Thank you for some great semifinal matches. If any of you want to hang out in Atlanta just look for me or Dustin(thefro).

There has been some discussion of Ramp Riot in this thread and we just set our date as 11/8/08
Ramp Riot 2008 will be on November 8th this year. Have your mentors register online at www.team341.com We usually sell out by August.

You may also want to check out the Tigertrons event PARC on May 10th. This is a great competition as well.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but the topic came up. I will post a seperate thread about Ramp Riot, soon.

Good luck to everyone in Atlanta and the 2008 offseason!

Big thanks to Moe and Daisy for picking us. That was an amazing run through the finals. I think my heart was stoping in minutes of time waiting for scores. A shout out to teams 103, 272, and 809/834. Your alliance was a sight to behold. I also want to bring up our sister team 284 on winning Creativity on Friday. Its amazing what those folks came up with, oozing with simplicity, and on an extremely tight budget to boot. Sadly looks like *I* won't being to Championships this year, can't afford the time or money or lack of support at work. You know though I'll be there in spirit over the web. Good Luck Chuck and to all the teams!

I have to add that the student alumni who was one of the FOUNDERs of that cheer for us took a BUS all the way from NYC, and walked 27 BLOCKS to our hotel at 9pm at night in Philly to come help us lead that cheer :) So Im glad to hear it was worth it!!! hehe!

For those who are wondering what all the noise is about, and those who wan to re-live it, TBA has some video of the finals up now. Too bad the audio doesn't come anywhere near the reality of the sound in the Drexel field house.

Sorry Rich, I can't hear you. My ears are still ringing. Something about a RAN-DOM-I-ZER, too.

Looks like TBA beat me to it. I just put up all 3 finals matches, cut from the official feed, up on Google Video (they were processing almost all day:rolleyes: ) Those embedded Google videos can be found on our this page. The audio is delayed ~5 sec (something that happened during Google's encoding). I cut the semis 2 (against 237 816 & 1370) and quarters 3 (against 357 1727 & 709) matches as well and will upload them as well. I will work on getting these all up on TBA.

What are you guys talking about? That crowd was silent...you could hear a pin drop right before the last score was announced.
