Re: 2007 New Hampshire Regional (BAE SYSTEMS Granite State Regional)
Another year, another great regional. Congratulations 190 on your chairmen's, you definitely have a shot in ATL. In a stunning turn of events, another BattleCry S.T.A.R. and UFH won a WFFA. Congratulations Dan, and the rest of team 40. And I've got to hand it to the Powerknights and company, you guys pulled it off in a big way.
I too got chills down my spine with the signing applause. Dean's speech was pretty darn good as well. Woodie was back for the first time since 2004, which I thought was pretty awesome. A few comments: -Next year, can rookie inspectors be teamed up with veteran inspectors, and at least given a crash course of what to expect? -Entrance and Exit for the pits It is a good idea, but less than perfect in solution. Traffic flow was much smoother in years prior when the additional gate was open. I like the the fact that safety glasses were handed out, but just one or two more entrances would have made things much smoother. -Food I don't know what you guys are talking about. It just isn't BAE without a chicken tender basket ($6.50) and souvenir soda ($3.50). I don't consider $10 a terrible deal for lunch. And finally... Thank you, very much to the GDC who designed this game. I thought it was on par with 2004, my favorite game thus far. Raising the Bar was my first game, and I think everyone recalls their first game as the best. This one was better. ![]() |

Re: 2007 New Hampshire Regional (BAE SYSTEMS Granite State Regional)
You can thank us for that
We totally started it... after 1991, of course. Nothing was better than listening to the arena gradually get silent after all of the other teams caught on.Quote:

My impressions of BAE
One of the most professional FIRST events I had the pleasure of attending. THe arena is very nice. The food had good variety for concession food but was rather pricy. The pits were on the tight side and it would have been nice if they had a place for the teams to dance. The Riot Crew's mascot came up to where we were up top and I was worried they were goig to fall down and really get hurt. THe parking wasn't so hot but at least it was free.
I would personally like to thank Jess, Andy, Greg, Kristin, Ryan (sorry our driver Jay had to take you down at air hockey but we need to get his competitive juices flowing for FLR. He's ready to go now!) and the crew for showing us a good time at the Jillains (I never knew they came so small but I was happy to see one since the one we had folded a couple of years ago). I can't wait to go back next year! |

Myself, I had quite a good time, although I'm disappointed that Team 95's autonomous didn't work on the field (it works fine in the practice pit, but such is life and engineering). In any case, thanks to all the teams who competed with and against us, everyone who welcomed me into their pit to show off their robot, and good luck in the rest of your season. Now to wait until Atlanta... |

We thank you for comming out! The after-event air hockey tradition continues! With Jay...we met our match! Don't you worry though, we'll be practicing. Who's next to take on the air-hockey tradition? All I have to say is...if anyone is in Manchvegas...give me a call. I take all challengers! -Andy |
