There's more than one Code Red, including 639 and 2771 (who will be at Gull Lake)

That being the joke. Our team is friends with 639, so whenever we see "Code Red", we assume 639 until we realize it's 2771.

Alamo for 148 and 118, I'm really keen on watching Greater Toronto East to see how 1114 1503 and 2056 change the nature of the game

I really want to know:

-is Defense even practical, let alone productive?

-Will we see a large number of ferry bots?

-Will Bridge bots (bots that only do the bridge) get high seeding?

-If they do high seeding, will this be one of the few years we see lots of upsets in elims? (besides at Championships)

I am interested in much of those same things. I plan on keeping track of most Regionals Friday...but have to travel home Saturday.

I'm sure everybody here will give me an idea of how the game changes

I think the bridge will play a huge role in weaker matches. An alliance that can get 3 robots in elims will be extremely beneficial. I think it will happen more often than Carnack thinks

1503 is only going to Pittsburgh and Waterloo, not GTREast.

I fully expect 1114 and 2056 to put on a show in Oshawa though. Hope we can tango, however big those shoes are to fill.

I will be at Kettering but will have my FRC Spyder up seeing if 16 is gonna do as well as I think they are gonna do at KC. If I wasn't going to Kettering and had to choose a webcast, I would choose KC just for them.

(Not a Bombsquad fan boy...just really like their robot this year.)
