well, i watched VCU all day. the webcast was awesome with no problems. but, i have different feelings about the competition. in my opinion, it's not an exciting competiion at all. maybe it's just because VCU is a regional with very young teams. there wasnt much action going on at all. i saw 1, maybe 2 matches where no totes were knocked down at all and the teams barely moved away from the starting position. i'd say the majority of the teams there just run into the stacks to knock them down. there is no variety at all.


perhaps as teams attend more regionals that some of the strategies will change and we will see a better game. so far, i'm not too impressed...

aye david, I was sick today so I also watched the VCU and Ohio regionals.. I had them both running on webcast all day.. There was a huge difference between Regionals, the Ohio regional has a lot of expierienced vets, ( techno cats and such ) and there were a ton of high scoring games.. and yes there were a lot of bots at VCU that did not work at all.. Metal in Motion has an impressive bot howerver

gots to give them props, I'd be surprised if they don't win VCU
