Relive the magic of Friday qualifying:

Some other business of the day - thanks a TON to Dave Campbell and Team 144 for offering to wait at the venue while their bus took us back to our hotel at the end of the day after our bus wouldn't start. Extremely grateful to them for this very kind and gracious act - plus we got to play "clown bus" fitting about 45 people (many of them not small) into a bus meant for 35. Fun times.

6-1, 128 HP, and 170 TP through 7 matches. 3 to go. I haven't done the math, but it seems we are scoring baskets better in qualifying than probably Pittsburgh and Wisconsin combined.

All 3 NEOFRA teams in attendance (48, 379, 3193) are currently in the Top 10. 379 and 3193 are bringing it strong - looking at the schedule, they will both have a major impact in the final qualifying rankings and in the elims. I'm very proud of all my friends on these teams.

Great venue, atmosphere, and event overall. The planning committee has done an excellent job in their first go around!

Great to see Bill Beatty, Chris Fultz, and Andy Baker leading the herd o' WFA and WFFA's onto the field for the awards presentation - congrats to George Bilokonsky of 1270 - well deserved!

Finally, GREAT JOB Jimmy Nichols on all you did and do to earn today's Volunteer of the Year recognition!

Thanks delphi elite for the webcast, you guys are doing a great job.

Re: 2012 Queen City FRC Regional
 

Yes, thank you. I will say this has been the best spectating event I've watched remotely this year. It's true that there *are* advantages to having closeups, but it's also nice to be able to watch the entire field the whole match.

Re: 2012 Queen City FRC Regional
 

Also thank you for using Ustream, being able to watch matches anywhere when you're following a team is great.

Triple Balance successful! Congrats 45, 3940 and 781

Re: 2012 Queen City FRC Regional
 

A tear is shed for the first seed alliance.

Re: 2012 Queen City FRC Regional
 

And again, knocking out the number 1 alliance!

Great job guys!

Ok, make that 2 triple balances...

As the numbers of viewers are increasing, the feed is becoming increasingly unwatchable. Anybody else with this problem?

Re: 2012 Queen City FRC Regional
 

Still working fine for me.


WOW. Semifinals between 71-1024-3494 and 45-3940-781 is probably one of the best matches in the entire regional.

Re: 2012 Queen City FRC Regional
 

How was that not a Red Card? 1038 was literally ON the red bridge in the middle of the triple balance attempt!

A valiant effort from 3301, 2481, and 829.

Re: 2012 Queen City FRC Regional
 

Disagree.

The other semifinal


2481, 3301, 829 vs 3193, 1038, 48 was the most intense match yet. The defense was so hard that 3193 ended up on the other alliances bridge!

Re: 2012 Queen City FRC Regional
 

You mean the 829 alliance? Someone explain this bridge thing to me please?

Re: 2012 Queen City FRC Regional
 

Apparently you can now drive on the opponent's bridge during a triple balance and only get a 3 point penalty...

Re: 2012 Queen City FRC Regional
 

I apologize for adding to the confusion by listing the incorrect team numbers; it's fixed now.
