Now this is why I love robotics/FIRST. Everyone loves everyone else.... people spend as much time making sure their opponents are ok as their own team.

I am looking forward to seeing both of these teams in LA and everyone else in the LA Regional Competition.

Seriously, thankyou guys for cheering with us. Hope you heard the crowd's (3-9-9) chant during the finals. You guys are one of the most Cheerful groups to talk to.

And thanks to everyone who came down to cheer with us!

It was our pleasure to help teams. The FIRST Aid Station will be in Los Angeles again for its 6th year. Please let me know what is wrong/needs improvement as I have set it up (I was unable to run it during the regional this year based on me having to drive the robot but I would pop in and out from time to time) for the past few years and always trying to improve it.

Congrats to all teams for making San Diego such a great regional. I am looking forward to Los Angeles regional to see some of the same teams and new teams.

Team 987 would like to congratulate team 968, 1717 and 294 for their hard fought victory. What an awesome set of Finals matches! We knew we would have our hands full with your alliance. A special thanks too for our alliance partners, 330 and 2034...we are proud to say we went into battle with you two and feel fortunate to have stood side by side with you guys. I haven't seen any matches yet this year that rivaled our Finals...2 of the 3 matches decided by only 2 and 4 points with last second action made for the best suspense we have been involved in (on par with our Einstein action last year).

A very special thanks to Team 1527 for their gracious help supplying a few extra batteries for our alliance...you truly represent the best that FIRST has to offer. And thanks to the San Diego Regional Committee for putting on a fantastic regional (great venue and smoothly run event). Looking forward to seeing some of the other teams at our Vegas regional in a couple of weeks and also seeing many of you in Atlanta...

My favorite part of the regional was helping out other teams as I'm sure many of you agree. I'd like to throw in major kudos to the devil duckies for their team spirit and the best give away, in my opinion, of the regional. Good luck to everyone, and I hope to see you all in LA.

Here is some data from our scouting system (through match 74 in the qualifying, and not including elims).

Average number of points each robot scored a match (the average for all robots was 14):

Code:

330                57
987                54
1717                33
701                25
1572                25
968                24
981                19
1622                18
1538                17
1388                17
192                16
1998                16
2034                15

Each robot's best matches were:

330: Match 45, 6 hurdles and a ball place
987: Match 45, 5 hurdles and a ball place, 3 lines in autonomous and 2 balls knocked off (one of each color).
1717: Match 64, 4 hurdles
968: Match 44, 4 hurdles, and 1 line in autonomous.

Average number of hurdles+places per match:
Code:

330                5.2
987                4.0
1717                2.7
968                1.7
1572                1.6
701                1.6
981                1.3
1538                1.1
192                1.0
1622                1.0

Both 968 and 1717 did not participate in any practice matches, and improved a lot over the course of the competition (968 also had 4 matches where they didn't move or got stuck due to random issues). Both will be even better at their next events. Watch out Hawaii and Los Angeles!

Thank you, teams 330 and 987, for your messages of congratulations. You are awesome competitors and most gracious and courteous. Thanks also to our (team 294's) alliance partners, 968 and 1717, for drafting us in the second round and for playing so well. Onward to LA!

CzarValvador 10-03-2008 17:07

Re: 2008 San Diego Regional
 
Thank you team 330 and 987 for your kind words. We hope to see 987 in the Nationals, and 330 in the LA Regional. The sheer Epicness of the competitions would have been impossible without you guys!

And again, thanks to our Allies for playing with us!
