25's got a decent minibot, but I've yet to see them deploy it yet.

Deployment seems to be more important than the speed of the minibot. Heck, we've got two (twins) sub 2 second minibots sitting on our table and can't get them to play nice with our deployment system.

Re: 2011 New Jersey Regional
 

2016 is firing on all cylinders. By the time they get to champs (aka drivers get a bit more practice) look out.

Strong Start for 2016
 

2016's elegant design makes them agile, quick, and able to score with style and grace. I am looking forward to their next match on Saturday morning when they team with 1923 and 2180.

Also . . .
25 is much stronger than their W/L record would suggest. 1218 also impressed me a lot. Most teams seemed to get stronger as the day progressed and a lot more teams were finishing with a mini-bot.

It will be a great second day in NJ.

Random Matchplay rears its ugly head with a top-eight robot in 28th.
Not that 25 should really care, seeing as any team would definitely look to them for an alliance pick at some point. Provides for some drama at least.

Re: 2011 New Jersey Regional
 

I have a quick question for all teams participating at the New Jersey regional or at other regionals who are reading this post: While I know that I can view the live webcast of the matches tomorrow morning, have any teams posted videos of their qualification matches yet? Thanks.

Re: 2011 New Jersey Regional
 

How did 2016 pick up that red card? I didn't see anything obvious in the match feed. Does anyone have it on youtube/etc yet?

Re: 2011 New Jersey Regional
 

The judges said that they picked up a tube in the opposing alliance's lane.

Re: 2011 New Jersey Regional
 

From the webcast POV it looked like it was only partially in the lane. I thought it was a legal grab. And you mean referees not judges :cool:

Awww GRT (and our awesome alliance mates) got knocked out in the semis =(
Looks like our pneumatic system started breaking, and then no one got minibots up on our side... =.=

Still excited to see underdog Alliance#6 up against 2016 and company. Go go underdog!

EDIT: Aww, first match goes to the crazy amazing Pioneers and Monkey Wrenches and Panthers. Not entirely unexpected, really, they earned 1st Alliance.

EDIT2: Congrats to 2016, 1676, and 303, and a double to 2016 for Chairmans. Big thanks to 1676 for hosting the webcast--I wouldn't have been able to keep up without it.

Re: 2011 New Jersey Regional
 

Teams 303, 1676, and 2016 are your 2011 New Jersey Regional Champions.
Congrats to Panther Robotics, the Pascack Pioneers, and the Mighty Monkey Wrenches.

Re: 2011 New Jersey Regional
 

Big congrats to our friends 1676 and 2016 on their Championship AND 2016 for another Chairman's. It was also great seeing my friends on 1647 and 1089 breaking through to the finals. Awesome eliminations matches.

11 is excited to playing with 1676 and 25 in Virginia. 3553 is excited to play with 816 and 1647 in Philadelphia.

Re: 2011 New Jersey Regional
 

Since I'm pretty sure I'm about the only person associated with my team who ever actually posts at all on this forum, I'll say this. Huge thanks to 1676 and 2016 for picking us as an alliance partner. I may be a bit biased, but I think it worked out great. Hope to see another good competition in Philadelphia a few weeks from now!

Re: 2011 New Jersey Regional
 

We did horrible this year, mostly because of a drive problem we had, but it was definitely the best time I've had at NJ yet. It was awesome seeing our minibot on two other robots, although we never got it working on our own.

Good job 2016!

Oh, and HUGE thank you to 1676!
