T-minus 2 days. And then Relay for Life that night (with our robot) .

1676 will be there, training our new drive team for next year.

This too might* be my last event as a student on our team

*Fingers crossed for IRI

EDIT: Completely forgot about Midnight Mayhem! Whoops! So at least one more competition as a student after this

Thanks for making the thread, the team has been so busy. I can confirm 75 is off the wait-list, as for the team they will be substituting, I will let everyone see at monty.

Let me know if you have any questions about the event.

Will Monty Madness have a webcast this year?

Shucks!So Close; next one in-line on the wait list before the doors closed.

Ah well, Monty is a great event, we should have known better registering so late knowing how quickly it fills up.
Have a great competition everyone!

If this does not work go to ustream.com and search monty madness it should be the first link. It will be streaming sporadically throughout the night as we test everything.

Hmm that's interesting. Wonder why MORT decided to switch out their Beta team for the varsity team last minute.

Maybe to train drivers? They can train younger MORT members to be MORT drivers for next year, but since MORT Beta members are new each year (freshman), there is no one to train for driver for next year yet.
