Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

Being as I was the driver who unfortunately tipped you guys a few time last year, I would like to make sure that my apologies are heard. I hope that our team can work with you guys sometime in the near future. Hopefully on the same side of the glass to prevent any tangles!

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

I wanted to shout out to MOE for giving us their camera color values. Really appreciate it guys. :) We didn't have any other time to calibrate properly.

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

It's all part of the competition... but a perfect demonstration of GP was everytime you knocked us over, there was a post match visit to our pit, to see if we needed any help!!! DAWGMA's got it going on!!!:D :D :D

We would love to work with you guys, a great team with great mentors and students!!! Hopefully we'll get to see you guys at the championship, and if not hopefully at either the Duel or Ramp Riot.

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

MOE is one of the teams we should aspire to be!!! They've got a great organization, great mentors, and most importantly a great attitude...

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

Wow where to begin.....Philly was a great regional comprised of a bunch of amazing teams! As always thank you so much to the volunteers for keeping the event running smooth.

Thanks to all the teams we played with throughout the competition. We got to play with some old friends and some new friends. We were hoping to play with 816 in the elims. but the got picked before we could get to em.....however our alliance with 11 and 316 was awesome! I really wish we could have taken it further. 1279, 1391 & 834 you guys played great! 272, 341 & 1923 you guys played great against the #1 alliance and those were some great rounds to watch! Also congrats to 395, 365 & 56 on their regional victory!

Thanks to everyone for the kind compliments.

We'll see everyone in Atlanta!

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

There no way anyone can be disappointed about the quarter finals we all played hard and were bested by a powerful alliance. 11 and 316 both played their heart out for this alliance. All three of our teams should be holding our heads up high! Best of luck to 11 and 316!

On another side note sorry to 223 for the decline. Also sorry our representative on the field only said "we decline". We heard the boos....unfortunately Dave is a man of few words. :o

THANK YOU PHILADELPHIA

Team 1153 Robo-Rebels from Walpole, MA would like to thank everyone for a great regional in Philadelphia and a great experience for our team. This was our first time at the Philadelphia Regional. We came because we heard that the people were great, the teams were great, and the competition was great, and all of this was true. We really enjoyed meeting all the teams, playing with and against some really great robots, competing hard, and having fun.

Regional Staff & Volunteers – Thanks for running a great regional, we appreciate all the hard work you put in to give the kids a great experience.

Team 103 – Cybersonics and Team 708 – Hardwired Fusion. We had a great time playing with you and competing hard in the playoffs and making it all the way to the Finals. While we came up just a bit short of our goal – we are proud to have had the chance to compete with two great alliance partners.

Teams 56 [Robbe Extreme], 365 [MOE] , 395 [2 Train]- Congratulations to the winning alliance. When we saw you win your semi-final, we knew it would be a battle all the way to the end and it was, lots of great action.

We wish all the teams going to Atlanta – good luck. We hope to meet you all again at some point in the future at a regional event.

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

Thanks man, it was awesome to be a part of your alliance, just sorry we couldn't help get you that second regional win all in one year. :cool:

I remember hearing "ohhhh" of surprise when you guys denied, not "booo". I don't think anyone should hold declines against others anyway.

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

Awww we love you too. But you still aren't getting a shirt. Yeah it seemed that we were pretty popular for the Elims I don't know why.

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

It's all about "The MORT Anomaly Featuring The Tigertrons".

Yeah. It'll happen, and you'll be scared when it does.

Upon Further Thought these alliance names would also be acceptable:
The Tigertron Anomaly Featuring MORT
The Westech Tigertron MORT Experience
The Alliance of Orange (And Mort)
The Tigertron Marauder Anomaly

etc....

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

PHilly was great i enjoyed every part of it. thanks to all the teams there.
I was wondering if any one knew where i could see pictures of the event any thing will do.

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

I'll be posting a gallery later in the week, probably on Picasa.

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

I just wanted to say that the Philly regional was great, even though our team (304) just missed the elims being 23'rd.

Shoutouts go to all the teams that let us borrow tools and game pieces, gave us advice, etc...

Special thanks goes out to 321 (for letting us hang around when we weren't doing anything, and letting us tether two bots at once on the practice field), and 316 (for being great pit neighbors).

Again, thanks to EVERYONE who helped make Philly great, and make it such fun for all of us!!

--Philip, and all of Team 304

P.S. no complains with the randomizer like i had last year. the problem was fixed well....:D

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

No problem, 304. We here at 321 appreciate you guys staying with FIRST this year, as we were the only two Philly school district schools that were competing. I look forward to working with you guys in the future!

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
 

It's all good. We understand. Though, you have to admit that the boos were somewhat entertaining. I got it on camera and it's fun to watch the ENTIRE stadium boo in unison.
Thanks to team 816 and 87. You guys were great. <3
