Man, -40 for penalties, that kinda sucks. Wonder what they were for.

So is it just me or are you guys yelling "ZOOM OUT!" at your computer.

I wish that the cameramen would just give us a field view most of the time.

Re: Midwest Regional
 

I'm in agreement.

Re: Midwest Regional
 

Wow, that last match with 1625 was stunning. Two teams had really good launchers. Finals at this regional should be amazing to watch.

Next up, the 2008 debut of 1114.

Re: Midwest Regional
 

wow 1625 is really good, 71 looks good but not as good as 1625 or 1114. alot like 118 without the turret, their pickup is a bit shakey compared to the roller claws like 1625, 16, 1114.

Re: Midwest Regional
 

I am completely impressed by 1625 in the last match that I just saw. This is not really an objective or an informed opinion, but an opinion nonetheless. There was significantly less field traffic interference than I expected. Were there still 6 robots out on the field?

Re: Midwest Regional
 

ahh...nice 1114 is up, should be a good match.

Re: Midwest Regional
 

So did anyone figure out how to save the stream using VLC. I don't want to miss seeing us kick some butt but I have exams to study for...

Go 1625! :)

Re: Midwest Regional
 

Nice and efficient match from 1114. In the face of some large traffic, they kept their cool and followed some decent strategy. The bonus for having the trackballs on top at the end was just that little bit of insurance, but shows the kind of thinking on the field that they are known for. 1024 looked like they were all business out there too on a losing cause.

Good match altogether!

How to save stream using VLC
File open, network, http/https/ftp/mms, paste link in that field, select stream save, settings, select play locally and file, enter path and name of file, under transcoding select video-h264 and audio-mp3 :D than click ok, ok

That should work.

Re: Midwest Regional
 

wow Stang is alot tipper then I thought...

Re: Midwest Regional
 

I think 1114 is the best bot I've seen so far, but I thought that was a pretty poor showing considering how much better I know they can do.

1625 was on FIRE in their first match. That was one very impressive showing by them. I'd be shocked if they aren't in the finals tomorrow.

I get that at work because the firewall blocks real (and almost everything else)

Re: Midwest Regional
 

Nice match #9.

I still am going to put my money on Beatty. Did you see them at the end of the match? I think they were going to try and launch over the divider and the overpass...

1625 was pretty impressive as well again.

1024 looks pretty solid as well.

Re: Midwest Regional
 

1024 just pulled off one killer hybrid mode. 5 lines in 15 seconds WOW!
