Yeah, we went down to the event center to unload today and I must say I was a little disappointed when we saw you aren't next to us :( although you are next to our sister team 378 so we might stop by :P. Also, I took a look at your robot, fantastic work as always and I can't wait to see it in action.

Re: 2011 Pittsburgh Regional
 

And 48 (who has done both Pittsburgh and Buckeye webcasts in the past) will have our webcast guy and equipment there as backup and additional support, if needed. With 291 running it, I doubt that will be necessary.

Looking forward to tomorrow! See everyone there. :)

Thank you, I look forward to seeing you and your robot tomorrow.

I have it on good authority that the Simbots have a Double Ubertube Auto.

Re: 2011 Pittsburgh Regional
 

Wait, you mean that they don't have a triple Ubertube autonomous?

Re: 2011 Pittsburgh Regional
 

Working on it, :ahh: that was the other half of the text message.

Re: 2011 Pittsburgh Regional
 

Wait, Canadians have phones with texting? ;)

Re: 2011 Pittsburgh Regional
 

^ Fixed this for you.

Does anyone know if any practice matches will be webcasted? Looks like it's currently not live on UStream.

Re: 2011 Pittsburgh Regional
 

I was thinking that but apparently they call this a phone or whatever that is hanging on his belt! http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/31506

:P

Re: 2011 Pittsburgh Regional
 

Whoa, Karthik has TWO Phones.

Crazy.

Seriously though, if any team is going to have a 3-tube autonomous, it'll be 1114.

Re: 2011 Pittsburgh Regional
 

I love how you guys are trying to make fun of Canadian s yet 3 of the 4 Canadian teams in Pittsburgh were in the top 5 (1114 first, 772 third, 1503 fifth) just making sure u americans didn't forget.

Someone in chat said "I, for one, welcome our new Canadian overlords"

Re: 2011 Pittsburgh Regional
 

Thanks for the alliance, 772 and 63! Good luck at your next regionals.

Re: 2011 Pittsburgh Regional
 

Wow, what an incredible regional, probably the best regional I've ever been to. It was run well, the volunteers were extremely nice, the judges and referees too. I had just as much fun off the field as I did on it.

This regional win is very very special to Team 1114 and us. Last year, we lost our founding mentor and executive sponsor, Mr. Stephen Rourke. I know he's smiling down on his two teams working together and winning. This one's for you sir, we miss you greatly.

Team 1114: Thank you for everything. After years of working with you off the field, it was nice to finally return to the same alliance during eliminations. It was an amazing experience to work with you, one that I'll never forget. I hope to have this opportunity again. You guys rock, thank you so much. We couldn't have won this regional without your faith in us.

Team 3492: Thank you for being extremely cooperative and a huge help on the field. You guys were willing to let our alliance rebuild your robot and re-purpose it as a strictly defensive bot. With an all new drivetrain, you guys played well and we were extremely glad to have you. Thank you.

GTR East, here we come.

What a fantastic regional! As a new member of 2614, it was my first (a FIRST first?) and I must say--a wonderful opportunity. Thank you to all the teams for making it so. :)

We are so proud of our rookie team 3492 RoboGens, who had the incredible opportunity to be paired in a winning alliance with Simbotics and Spartonics, both phenomenal teams on the field and off.

Congratulations to all the teams who won awards and were recognized for all their hard work, dedication, and accomplishment. Team 2614 MARS graciously extends a resounding cheer to you! Looking forward to seeing some of you in the future!
