Dual in the Desert 2008- Mesa, Arizona
 
Team 2380 would like to let everyone know that our team will host a Dual in the Desert at Desert Ridge High School the Saturday before ship date. We are located in Mesa, AZ.

We invite you to come out to test your robots and have some fun.
The time is roughly 1:00-8:00pm.

If anyone would be interested in helping out please contact me. We can use some extra help to be sure- thanks.

We will post more on the event soon. If you think you will attend, please let us know as we would like to try and keep a tally of who all is coming.

Thanks! 1212 will try and make it - we say that every year and most of the time we never can. I like how this one is later in the day though! So hopefully we can make it!

We're interested in going, but some things have to happen...including setting up a school field trip...so we're a "maybe" right now. I'll see what it will take to get things set up.

Re: Dual in the Desert 2008- Mesa, Arizona
 
Cool, we are looking forward to all of you coming! :)

Please keep us in the loop if you can make it.

Would love to hear from more teams.

Sorry to be nitpicky, but do you mean a 'Duel in the Desert'? Or is Dual an acronym?

DUEL in the DESERT - Spelling
 
Sorry all for the brain cramp on the spelling.

Yes someone was being nitpickly and they are right.
Sorry I guess I've pulled too many all nighters trying to get our new team up and running.

I'll correct it where I can.

What my esteemed colleague really means here is that we have 1/2 of an overpass assembly that we could bring. It's a complete overpass for either a blue or a red finish line (but not both). We built it to practice track-ball removal, hurdling, and placement.

Big thank you to Jag Robotics for hosting the duel!

Pretty awesome day and some sick robots

Re: Dual in the Desert 2008- Mesa, Arizona
 
Sick in a good way, if you're talking about 39's shooter!

too bad we had to leave early...

falconmaster 17-02-2008 00:52

Re: Dual in the Desert 2008- Mesa, Arizona
 
Thanks For hosting. It was great being able to work out some bugs. (code) Number 39 had a great shooter!

Thanks to everyone who came out! Yes, it was a good day. It is always cool to see a preview of everyone’s robots before Arizona.

I didn't get to see as much as I wanted to.. being chained to the food table serving, but I liked all the bots I did get to see...great job everyone! :)

Thanks to our sister teams team 1013 for the carpet and team 39 for one of the overpasses and the permieter.

Thank you for hosting 2380! This was a great event and it's good to see alot of teams taking advantage of the time to meet everyone before the regional and see an actual field. With a nice mix of rookies and veterans I think this gave a taste of what to expect at AZ this year (though of course everyone will be fully working and have a bit more driving time under their belts by then).

I have somewhere around 80 pictures from the event, they should be up hopefully well before the regional.

Ziaholic 17-02-2008 09:04

Re: Dual in the Desert 2008- Mesa, Arizona
 
Many thanks to Team 2380 for hosting. Team 2449 appreciated the opportunity to practice, troubleshoot, and feed our faces!

There were plenty of great bots and Teams at the event. We are looking forward to seeing most/all of you again at the AZ regionals.

Duel (ATTENTION all teams)
 
A team left a battery charger and battery on the stage at the Duel yesterday. Contact us if it is yours. There are no team numbers on it.

We can arrange for your to get it, or we can bring it to Arizona.
