Re: Official Updates - Duel on the Delaware - Oct 11
 

Thanks to all the volunteers, Team 365, Team 316, Team 222 and everyone else that played a part in making DoD an awesome event. I also wanted to say thank you to NASA, Rob Thate, and Ron Karpinski. Without their help these events could not happen.

Thanks to Team 365 for selecting us and to 75 and 422 for being great partners. Congratulations to Teams 25, 555, and 1089. It was fun battling with you guys in the semis. And special thank you to Chuck 84 for bringing 7,000 lbs of books and for baking 7,000 lbs of cookies for our team. You guys are too kind.

Our team had a blast, learned a lot, trained some new drivers, and made some new friends. That's what the off-season is all about.

We are already looking forward to next year's DUEL!

First of all thanks to Moe and the Lunatecs for putting on a great competition! Our team had a great time. Thanks to our alliance partners 816 and 2558. Those were three intense quarter final matches! Can't wait for the next Duel! Hope to see many of the teams at BE and Ramp Riot!

Books found at Duel on the Delaware - Oct 11
 

We found a small, striped canvas bag containing 5 books, the type you might read for your English literature class. If you wish to claim it, PM me.

What a great event! I'm so glad I took the 18 hour detour from my weekend trip to Dover to attend and volunteer! As always it's great to see old friends and make a few new ones!
As a referee, this was indeed the best play and also made for the most memborable conversation... It was in my quadrant that 007 fell over. The head ref, Sunny Hung came over an looked at the bot lying on its side:

Sunny: Did anyone knock it over?
Me: Nope, it just went over on its own.
Sunny: Do you think it's out?
Me: yep, I think so. (At this point we are both just standing there looking at it when the other robot approaches and gives 007 a little nudge. 007 pops up, sways a little bit and then takes off.)
Sunny: Or maybe not. (And he goes back down the line to watch the rest of the match.) :cool:
