We are so excited that teams had a great time at the WPI Regional!
Outside of a few people, our entire event is run by volunteers (from crowd control, to referees, to even our A/V) and we are glad teams had positive experiences with them. We give everyone working our event one piece of our advice.. "it's about the teams; keep them happy and treat them with the respect they deserve!"
It was amazing to see the robots work so well together, especially balancing the co-op bridge throughout qualifications. We look forward to seeing teams at BattleCry@WPI 13 (
www.wpi.edu/+bc) and at the event next year (when we expand to the new Sports & Rec Center).
Congrats to all the teams that made it to the event, got a robot out on the field, and played their hearts out. It's no small feat and we are happy to have shared those great moments with you!
On a side note: We have the recording from the webcast and hope to work on splicing it up and getting it on the web as soon as we can. We know this footage can be very valuable for teams meeting with sponsors, schools, etc.
