2011 Oregon Regional

[AndrewN]

Update your classmate software before you arrive: Driver Station: 02.27.11.00

Update the cRIO firmware to v28 first thing Thursday morning. Come prepared with the updated software.

Get the D-Link radio WPA key done early.

Make sure that the D-Link is powered by the 12V-5V convertor, which in turn is powered though the dedicated 12V supply on the PD. (Not through the 12V breakers). This makes a huge difference on the field. Use the right angle power connector that came with the D-Link. Loss of power to the D-Link will halt you for 60sec or more on the field.

I was looking around trying to find the qualification schedule for Oregon so that I know when we are playing (I need to tell my family). I found this link but there is nothing in it. The page that directed me to it said the link should go live sometime today, and I don't know if this is "live", but when can I expect the qualification schedule to be on the site? Thanks.

I think the same people did the Seattle regionals and I don't think there was a video stream for the practice rounds in Seattle. Despite what the stream schedule said then and says now.

In seattle, we had sound issues so it was "recording" but not streaming online. It should have been visible from mid-day to the end.
For Portland, we were a little short staffed. It should be available right away at 9 tomorrow morning, as posted.
Sorry for the delay.

Will matches be archived like the were for Seattle, or is it purely a live feed?

Yep, the archive is instantaneous, just like seattle. When a match ends (the score is announced is when we consider it "ended") go to "Watch Archived Matches" and click "refresh list" to see all the played matches / ceremonies.

Oregon is up and pumpin now. Enjoy.

These elimination rounds were some of the hardest I've coached in 13 years. There were so many alliances that could've won the event, but in the end, only one made it there. Tremendous congratulations to teams 2471, 360, and 3711 on your win.

Thank you so much.
Xbot has always been stellar and you guys continue to impress every year.
