Congratulations to 1507,188,174 for the Regional Win, you guys had an awesome alliance and is well deserved.

To 340 for Winning the Regional Chairman's Award - your team is an inspiration and makes the Rochester FIRST community proud.

Thanks to our Alliance partners 1503, 173 - I think we would have gone farther if we were not succumbed to the intermittent field issue. This issue was not acknowledged till the final match and the root cause, as I was told by the field crew, was an "intermittent Emergency Stop Switch" at the Red Center Driver Station and NOT a "cRIO Powercycling failure on your robot or static causing communication drops" as 639, 211, 1503 were told initially. I hope they documented this issue and junked the part that was replaced. This was probably a continuation of the issues seen at BAE in week #1. I'd hate to see what happened here repeat once more for the remainder of the competition season where outcomes may have been different because of this.

Thanks to all the teams for making FLR such an exciting event this year. I had my doubts about this game being audience friendly but it was great.

FLR has always been a great regional, kinda like an annual reunion. Great to see everyone again!


Josh - If you want I can probably burn you a few DVDs today if you'd like to pick it up. Give me call.
