grr, I wanted to go to the scrimmage, but Scott is saying no for us. Some of the students asked to just throw the bot in the back of my pick up and make a run for it lol. But that is still a long drive for us. So I'll just have to wait till March to see yall.

My bad, :confused:
Only been once.

Re: 2009 Palmetto Regional
 

Turns out that it was at Bonds. It was the first trip up for all the Columbia-area teams that made it, to varying degrees of success. (For anyone curious, 1618 DID make it to the field for the very last match. We've got a couple of gremlins to shake out.)

My girlfriend took video of some of the matches--I'll see if I can get it off the camera and put the better parts online. Thanks to the folks on 281 for hosting!

Have at it. Conveyor belt is roughly 27" wide, and about 65" inches long. We used unobtainium at the top of our rollers to keep the balls in and spit them out when needed.

Re: 2009 Palmetto Regional
 

Anyone notice that the majority of teams going to Peachtree are going to Palmetto? So I guess we can consider Peachtree a preview to possible outcomes at Palmetto? lol

Re: 2009 Palmetto Regional
 

Actually, there's really only six-ish teams going to both. My team included :) It'll be our first year at Palmetto so we're pretty excited.

As for putting up pictures of our robot...well, I think we may be putting a video from scrimmage up soon. But don't count me on it.

Re: 2009 Palmetto Regional
 

there are ten teams that are attending both. so not quite enough to constitute this to be both CJ:)
