2011 Midwest Regional
 

Who else is excited for this regional? Who is going and what robots do you want to see. I personally want to see 16, 45, and 71 in action.

Re: 2011 Midwest Regional
 

It's an honor for team 45 to be expected at Midwest. It's been a while since we've been there and it should be interesting seeing how things go. Wish us luck.

Re: 2011 Midwest Regional
 

1987 looks forward to competing. It is our first time at the Midwest Regional and we are pumped! We look forward to seeing 16, 45, 71, 111, 118, and 1625 at the regional.

Re: 2011 Midwest Regional
 

111 is really good again. They were in WI. When teamed up with Wave, they can score and score and score...

Re: 2011 Midwest Regional
 

We tried to get in but it was already full. Next year we hope! Going to MN instead.

Re: 2011 Midwest Regional
 

1675 is going to midwest again and we are very excited to see how the competition changes and play with some more of the "big name." Hoping to expand on our progress from Wisco.

Re: 2011 Midwest Regional
 

Team 135 cannot wait to be at Midwest! Now that we have the bugs worked out of our bot, we are ready to face many of the same teams that we saw at Milwaukee. 1 week 1 day until the Midwest rumble!

Re: 2011 Midwest Regional
 

The Robot Inspectors at the Midwest Regional are going to be proactive when it comes to software versions. Please be ready to turn on your robot on Thursday morning in order to demonstrate that your cRIO and Driver Station are up to date. Current copies of the software will be available if needed.

The cRIO image should be FRC_2011_v28, and the Driver Station revision should be 02.27.22.00 (01.05.11.00 is technically legal, but the Inspectors are still going to insist on the newer one).

Two teams from New Jersey will be competing at Midwest it looks like, both from Newark. I believe that's a precedent?

Re: 2011 Midwest Regional
 

Is anybody webcasting the Midwest Regional? There are so many great teams here that I want to see (including our sister high school, 1987).

The UStream http://www.ustream.tv/channel/first-midwest-regional says it was last updated 370 days ago, but the graphic shows the 20th anniversery version of the FIRST logo, and the show info looks more current.

NASA is not listing a link yet. http://robotics.nasa.gov/events/2011_frcwebcasts.php

Hello all!! Does anyone know how to stream the Midwest Regional using an iPhone 4?? I don't want to miss this amazing regional again!

You guys in Chicago know how to make pizza the right way.

Re: 2011 Midwest Regional
 

I really enjoyed watching the elimination rounds here on the webcast. Some beautiful robots on display.

Wanted to give a special shout out to 1987 (The Broncobots from Lee's Summit, Missouri). 3rd seed, 2nd alliance captain, Web-site and Quality Award winner. We will be building next door to each other in a new facility next year and it will be a pleasure to colaberate with such an outstanding team.

I'll leave it to others who were actually present to comment on each of the award winners and other fantastic teams at this regional. It was full of so many friends we have met at the GKC, 10,000 Lakes, North Star and Championship events over the last couple of years. You guys inspire us every year.

Re: 2011 Midwest Regional

Full awards here

I wanted to say congratulations to 1675, a great showing as #8-seed, Woodie Flowers, and Chairman's!

Indiana had a GREAT showing with 45 (#4) and 2171 (#8) for being selected for eliminations after not being selected at Boilermaker. Another shout-out to 135 (#5). The big shout-out goes to 3494, a rookie team from Bloomington. They were a part of the winning alliance, and ended up as the rookie inspiration award. Note of worthy: all Indiana (45, 71, 135, 2171, and 3494) teams that attended were selected for finals! Congraulations!

I wish my team went... (I'll make note to pester about this to my team for a second regional next year).
