Re: 2010 Philadelphia Regional!
That would be "shirmp" (sic), and I can recommend the "evil jungle princess" (if you like it hot) and the pad thai, haven't had the shirmp, though.

Re: 2010 Philadelphia Regional!
Yup - the very same. Also featuring "shirmp in the blanket". I'm thinking I better go there for dinner Friday to see if they've made any changes.

Re: Discrepancy at Chesapeake, Israel, Waterloo?
I suggest that a better way to have phrased this would be "Not when non-functional robots are placed on the field 6-7 times."

Re: 2009 Philadelphia Regional
Yup, that's the one. We are prioritizing the inspection of robots according to the match schedule.
I think Wayne will like match 44.
