I have to say that penalties are having a big impact on teams in San Diego and as a result their rankings. Congrats on your robust and well-designed robot, I really like it a lot and look forward to Arizona next week.

Congratulations to 687 for winning the Entrepreneurship Award. We were working for that award as well and knew we had some tough competition when we saw you a couple pits down.

You guys are awesome and we will have to do better next year!

Re: 2010 San Diego Regional
 

Congratulations to our former playoff partners the TitanBots 2543 and our other great friends the Holy Cows 1538 for your amazing performances in San Diego this weekend. We are always rooting for you and hopefully we can play together in Atlanta!

Best wishes to you both from the students and coaches of 341, Miss Daisy.

Team 294 - Beach Cities Robotics would like to thank our winning alliance partners #100 and #359 for such a great time at the regional! We'd also give props to our opponents #115, #1717 and #2543!

Re: 2010 San Diego Regional
 

Well at least your judges came by to pick up the Executive Summary and interview the team.
Our judges forgot to interview and/or pick up our business plan. No one came by the whole day on Friday. When we asked about it, it was oooops!
Oh well, that's how it goes.................we're all human.:p

Team 668 had a great time in San Diego.

Congrats to teams 100, 294, and 359 on winning. Thanks to teams 1538 and 1388 for picking us and being great alliance partners, and congrats to team 1538 on winning Chairmans.

Re: 2010 San Diego Regional
 

The San Diego Regional was, as usual a great regional!

I would like to thank our alliance partners 1388 and 668. This is one of the best alliances I have ever played on in my 6 years in FIRST. 668's shutdown defense allowed only 1 point in the quarter finals and always gave the opposing alliance's headaches when trying to score. 1388 was a robot that I thought complimented ours very well. In QF2-2, when we broke one of our center drive axles, effectively disabling us for the rest of the match - 668's ability to prevent the other alliance from scoring and 1388's hanging helped us move on to the semi-finals.

I'm also very proud of our pit crew. The fact that they were able to replace a broken drive axle in our transmission, with an axle from elsewhere on the robot in under 20 minutes (in the elimination rounds) was spectacular. After the repair, the robot worked just fine.

Congratulations to teams 100, 294, and 359 for the very competitive semi-final matches! It was very close, but ultimetely your alliance came out with the victory in the 3rd match. I wish one of our alliance partners hadn't been disabled :( maybe the outcome would have been in our favor :). It was our 3rd straight semi-final appearance, so close yet so far once again! We still had a wonderful time and you guys were definetely well deserving of winning the title of San Diego Regional Champions! We hope to make it to Atlanta and compete with you guys again!

Re: 2010 San Diego Regional
 

Thank you rsisk. Our administration team works hard every year to win that award. We were worried that we won't win that award this year because of competitive business plans from other teams.

Devil Duckies! It was great being your alliance partner! We were thrilled to be in the same alliance. We believed that having you guys complimented the strengths of our robots. It's so unfortunate that we didn't have a competitive 3rd round. Having a disabled defender for 2 rounds seriously placed our team in a losing battle.
Hopefully we see each other in another regional or better yet, in Atlanta. =D

Re: 2010 San Diego Regional
 

Thank you 687 and 2839 for being such great alliance partners! We couldn't have gotten anywhere without our wonderful alliance partners :cool: we hope to see you guys in Atlanta!

This was my first time out to the west coast for a competition. It might have been colder than usual but we still enjoyed the 60 degree weather.

Thanks to all the teams for making the competition fun - the final matches made me believe that this game can be exciting and will improve as the weeks go on.

The alliance of 359, 100 and 294 was perfect and, in my opinion, is exactly what you need to win the whole event hands down every time. Kudos to you.

Thanks again to everyone who made 357 feel welcome!

Re: 2010 San Diego Regional
 

Thank you 1266 for the praise. From the Duckies, it means a lot. You have an awesome team.

Thanks to 359 for picking us for the winning alliance, and thanks to 100 (and 359) for a great performance on the field. It was fantastic.

The TorBots (1197) have a great robot and drive team. I am surprised nobody picked them! Might have been a bit of trouble for us. Good luck at the LA regional.
