Congratulations 303, 1640, 365, and 2607! It was a great fight against you all in the end! 1391 and 486, we couldn't have asked for a better alliance, thanks! I hope everyone had as much fun as we did! Hope to see you all in St. Louis.

Your Welcome, your team did a Xcellent job.

[Mr MOE]

The Philadelphia Regional, as usual, was quite a roller-coaster ride this year. MOE 365 would like to thank...

Firebirds, Team 433 - your team works amazingly hard and deserves to take home the top prize. Congratulations on your Chairman's Award. All the best in St. Louis!

Royal Assault, Team 357 - Congratulations on your Engineering Inspiration Award. Your pit ambassador was well trained! He got me to read your business plan as I was rushing by to meet up with our competition team! Nice document!

Al Ostrow, Team 341 - Congratulations on your Woodie Flowers Award. Extremely well deserved. You finally get some credit for your endless hard work. Enjoy!

Don Bowers and the Regional Organizing Committee - we understand all the logistics involved in making an event like this happen. Kudos for all your work.

Event Volunteers - People who give their time for activities like this are the true heroes. Thanks to all our Philly whiteshirts!

All Participating Teams - The Philly Regional, whether at Temple or Drexel, has been special because of all the special people and team members. Thanks for all the spirited and friendly competition!

Temple University - While Drexel has been our Philly Regional home most of the time over the past decade or so, I really enjoy the Temple venue, especially the seats!!!!!

Our Alliance Partners in the eliminations - 1640, 303, 2607 - It was a tough road all the way, but somehow, our alliance managed to make it through. It was great how each partner contributed to this regional win. From broken arms to back-up bots to adaptive strategies, I thank you, partners!

For those teams who have finished your official FIRST season, we look forward to seeing you at off-season events (Duel on the Delaware is scheduled for Saturday, October 22nd). For those continuing on to St Louis and the Championship, congratulations! We will see you there. Safe travels.

Well, this years Philadelphia Regional at Temple was just as memorable as those we've previously held at Drexel. All of the volunteers were awesome and the teams were even more spectacular in the ways you played and worked with each other. Hopefully everyone who tuned in was able to see just how hard Philly plays.

On behalf of Storm Robotics 2729, we'd like to thank everyone for making the event so memorable and to send big congrats to all of the award winners.

Special thanks to MOE for helping us getting our autonomous code up and running too. That was a major accomplishment for us this weekend!

Iron Devils - It was a lot of fun watching a cheering for you all during the playoffs. Sorry things didn't work out in the end. I forsee more great things for you all in the future.

Looking forward to seeing everyone back here next year!

All our thanks yous have been said in person to the people that needed to hear them. If not, I would like to thank 341 & 1517 for putting together one hell of an alliance. Also, a big thank you to teams 103, 365, 816, and 2729 for your continued support and efforts. Our congratulations go out to 433, 357, the Dean's List finalists, and Al Ostrow.

We left our mark on Philadelphia and aside from being upset with the red card, our team came out with one large value. Integrity was in every Iron Devil that day because they did what they could to the best of their ability and created one hell of a robot. I loved every minute competing with it in qualifications and eliminations. Also, teams are recognizing what our team can do in FIRST.

As for next year, I will be heading off to California and be leaving behind the Philadelphia scene. The Iron Devils, however, will be back to get what they ultimately deserve.

Thanks 341 for offering us your batteries during Finals in case ours died on us! We've been working on figuring out how we are going to fix this problem, but it is definitely a work in progress. So thanks again!
