Re: IRI-Are you using old or new drivers?
 

I'm pretty sure we'll be using our veteran drivers this year, if they can go. They're both juniors, so, hey, more practice for them :D. If our junior strategist can come then I'll almost certainly not be behind the glass. (Puts me in a bit of a dilemma, really... do I hope he can come or not? ;) )

1646 will be using the same as during the year.

Re: IRI-Are you using old or new drivers?
 

We will be using the same team as we had at BMR.
Don't fix what ain't broken.

Re: IRI-Are you using old or new drivers?
 

Ditto.

Re: IRI-Are you using old or new drivers?
 

Winnovation will be using the same drive team.

Re: IRI-Are you using old or new drivers?
 

217 traditionally removes graduates from all duties at IRI, including driving. This means that while we will have the same gunner, our driver and human player will be different.

IF we were going to IRI,

I'm highly against the practice of having one person who drive, and as long he she is around, only she or she gets to drive. I believe that everyone should be given a fair opportunity for the position.

So, IF we were going to IRI, I would really push to get a new drive team.

Re: IRI-Are you using old or new drivers?
 

If and only if it was as prestigious an event as IRI would I understand teams wanting their veteran drivers because I would do the same. Other than that it doesn't really matter to me who drives as long as they end up wanting to do it and practice.

This is not entirely true, he also responds to Chuck Noble or Chris Norris :D

Sorry for the question, but is IRI going to be webcasted?

Re: IRI-Are you using old or new drivers?
 

It looks like 1923 will have a mix. Our original idea was 'take out the seniors', which meant replacing our Class of '09 operator (myself) and human player, and putting in our backups for the two positions, who are a sophomore and freshman, respectively. However, it seems the sophomore operator won't be able to make it, nor will our junior (original) driver.

So, for us, it looks to be a half-and-half- New driver, old operator, new HP, old coach.

Although, the class of '09's going to be in full swing for at least one match, giving all three of 1923's seniors their last run with the team. I'm getting a little sad just thinking about it...The IRI will be my last event with 1923 before I go away to college. I'll miss 'em terribly.
