Peachtree (GA) Regional Thread

[KevinB]

Hey guys ... just wanted to start a thread for Peachtree info.

Today at the practice day, only 1 bot knocked off the 10pt ball in autonomous, and only 4 bots hung (that I saw).

We (team #538) would like to give out HUGE thanks for team #34 for hooking us up with a new regulator and team #494 for a backup battery! These guys exemplify Gracious Professionalism!

Also thanks to team #1002 for providing onsite Internet access!

Good luck to all teams!

I am trying to watch the webcast. I went to robotics.nasa.gov and found the "watch it" link for the Peachtree Regional in Duluth, GA. I tried several times throughout the day to connect. I was able to get audio, but no video. One time, when I clicked pause, the video appeared, but paused. I clicked play and it appeared to be playing video and audio with a several minute delay in the video. I heard him say "lets get started here in match 61...", but it was showing the scores from match 59 when the announcer said that.

I was wondering if anyone else was having trouble with the webcast. The one from the Central Florida Regional last week worked fine. Feel free to IM me on AOL. I will try to check this thread again in a little while. Thanks.

there is a delay from the sound to the video of 2 mins if you want to see the regional let it play without video for aprox 2 mins and then you will get the video

Won't the audio always be 2 minutes ahead of the video then? I have enough trouble telling whats going on with the poor quality, I at least need the audio with it.

I am looking for information on how the Huntsville, AL area teams are doing. Please post thier rankings if anyone knows them.

If you know those teams' numbers, you can find their status at www.soap108.com by typing in their numbers in the top, left corner.

Here is a snapshot of the current rankings, as shown by our scouting system.

These aren't official, but they're $@#$@#$@#$@# near perfect.

I tried to use soap but there is no data on the site. I also tried using the datadevelopment page but it is not wanting to load. i will try again in the morning.

Does FIRST make available any VHS or DVD of the Regional Events, including the qualifying rounds?

If not, does any team have a good copy of the webcast from the Peachtree Regional?

I found the archives on the NASA site, but it looks like they only store the Elimination & Championship rounds.

I too had troubles watching the PeachTree Regional (all audio, and no video). From the sounds of it, the announcer had a lot of enthusiasm, and spirit. It would have been better if there was all video, and no audio. Well it was a good thing that the UTC Regional webcast was working, if not, then I would not have gotten my weekend fix of robotics regional competitions; which is a very bad thing.
