Cool - so which team was dropped?

From a drivers perspective, I like the sound of driving on used FRP. :)

I apologize if I've missed it but has there been any discussion regarding a web hug at IRI this year?

Re: 2009 IRI (Indiana Robotics Invitational)
 

Pardon me if this will come off as sounding weird, but if you're a Wisconsin team going to IRI with an easy way to move lots of carpet to Milwaukee, WI, it'd be really great if you PMed me to coordinate extremely non specific, sketchy plans for a practice scrimmage that might not even happen. Thanks ^_^

Edit: Nevermind, aforementioned event in Milwaukee isn't happening. Guess I've got to convince the drive team to... take a long drive.

Re: 2009 IRI (Indiana Robotics Invitational)
 

Just out of curiosity... Will volunteer assignments be e-mailed soon?

Re: 2009 IRI (Indiana Robotics Invitational)
 

Speaking of Volunteer assignments... do you need any more volunteers?

Re: 2009 IRI (Indiana Robotics Invitational)
 

Brant is sending out assignments in the next day or so.
I believe everyone who volunteered will be needed.

Re: 2009 IRI (Indiana Robotics Invitational)
 

So that scouting book I was talking about making is looking less and less feasible. I might eliminate some of the fields and try and get it done (or at least I'll release a "picture book") but between limited information on a lot of teams and a lack of confidence in my ability to describe mechanisms / guess ball capacity I doubt you'll see much. Sorry >.>

Re: Team 399 and IRI
 

Just my opinion, but I would definitely spend more time in Yellowstone if you can swing it! I've been there hiking twice and its one of the most amazing places on the planet. Be sure to visit the "Daisy" Geyser. ;)

Re: Team 399 and IRI
 

Same here, I'm driving out with a few friends. I doubt our trip will be as action packed as yours though, if only I had more Vacation time at work...

Re: Team 399 and IRI
 

I hear thefro will be taking the reigns of another team's robot for a few rounds.:rolleyes: :yikes:

Re: Team 399 and IRI
 

If you want a college tour at SDSMT, now might be a good time to let them know you might want one. Allow 1/2 day or so in the day after you make Keystone--you'll probably have enough time. (The South Dakota School of Mines and Technology is in Rapid City, about 1/2 hour away from Keystone if that.)

The first wave of Bacon leaves at 1am EST! Yehaw!!

Re: 2009 IRI (Indiana Robotics Invitational)
 

Some of our team are leaving tomorrow morning to go by way of Cedar Point, and others are stopping by Dayton.
