Bring the Stevens sisters and I'll bet they'll shell out EVEN MORE money to get you!
Plus they'll have a great time!

Re: 2011 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus

I not get to field construction until later in the day, probably. Perfectly in time to tape some tape lines on the carpet.

I better not see any teams ripping up the tape!

Re: 2011 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus

Just throwing this out there. If anyone is going to the volunteer meeting tonight(Friday) from RIT, I'd sure like a ride if you don't mind.

I can probably convince a friend to give me a ride there, but she's not volunteering so I don't wanna make her go that far if she doesn't have to.

Send me a PM if you can!


Thanks!

I boldly predict....we'll be in the 2nd match with 188 and 191. Prescient.

Re: 2011 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus

Best of luck to everyone at the Ruckus. I'd say I'd be thinking of you, but I'll probably be too busy at WMRI.

Re: 2011 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus

Just wanna thank everyone who helped make this years Rah Cha Cha Ruckus another great event, as always! Volunteers and teams included, since everyone worked together to make this great competition possible!

I'd also like to apologize to anyone's life I made difficult. It was my first time volunteering at an FRC event, so I was still trying to shift from competing to helping

I will definitely look into volunteering next year (with a little more experience under my belt this time around)!

Again, thank you to everyone for a great event, and congratulations on another great year! I look forward to seeing some of you again at Finger Lakes!

Definitely! Thanks to all of the volunteers who made today run smoothly!


Second: Team 1126 would like to thank team 191 and 1518 for a fun run through the elimination matches! Playing with you guys was a ton of fun! We had a great time, an awesome strategy, but we caught a few bad breaks. The 3 matches of the semifinals were definitely intense, but we didn't go down with out a fight. We played to the very end, but lost to the eventual winner! Best of luck in the 2012 season!

And to 1551, thanks for letting us borrow your batteries for 3951! They had a great time at thoer first competition even though they didn't get very far. Team 1511 and 1405, 3951 thanks you for help and for a fun (although short-lived) time!

Overall, I had a great time and am happy to call that my last Ruckus as a student!

Re: 2011 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus

It was great fun hooking up a rookie team with another team (1126) who was building a second robot for practice, then letting the rookies use our batteries to run in the competition... Keeping eight batteries charged sufficiently for two teams was an exercise in management that made my pit crew half-mad!

And on the other hand, I got to re-meet and be interviewed by Libby Kamen, and then later get video of her taking a cream pie to the face, so despite the financial loss of long-term battery life, it was all more than worthwhile in the end. (I bear Libby no ill will, of course... It's just that the look on her face immediately before being pie-smote was *priceless*!)

Edit: We got some nice press, too! http://www.democratandchronicle.com/...WS01/110300337
