Re: 2012 Fingerlakes Regional

Thanks to everyone who made FLR another great event. Everyone behind the scenes and all of the volunteers made this event truly feel like home.

Congrats to 639 for winning the EI! You are a great team and if you need any help with plans getting to Championship let me know. You are a team on the rise and we know we will have to push ourselves that much harder next year to stay out in front of you.

1507, 191 and 3951, what can I say? You were an amazing alliance. We gave you a run for the banner but you guys just had a little more in the end. To 1507, this is the 2nd time in 4 years you have beaten us in the finals at FLR. It’s getting a little old. X-cats you are a class organization and we aspire to join you some day. 3951, welcome to FIRST, not a bad first FIRST event. You have great things in line for you.

To 3015, 4124 and 3044, you were great alliance partners. We couldn’t have asked for a better group to work with. We almost had it. 3015 Lets give it another run at Buckeye in 2 weeks! 4124 you have great potential and were a great partner. 3044 did an admirable job filling in for that last match. You came in and gave it all you could, thanks.
1511, 3838, 1559 you gave us a scare in the QF’s. I wasn’t sure if we were going to get by you. Good luck at the future events! You were all on our pick list and I was scared to face you in the first round.

Larry & Jeff. I don’t know two guys who deserve the honor more. Volunteer of the Year and WFA! Awesome.

Congrats to all of the award winners especially 4093 rookie inspiration, 1551, and 3157. And the Dean’s List award winners Justin 1511 and our own Christa 340! Thanks to Xerox for adding a scholarship to the award. Ron gave a great tribute to Gene!

I am looking forward to Buckeye in 2 weeks! 120, 340, 378, 578, 1450, 1507, 1551, 2172, 2228, 2340, & 3015. That’s some repeat list! Lets take Ohio by storm.

Re: 2012 Fingerlakes Regional

What a fantastic regional. Team 1507 didn't attend FLR last year due to being a First Week regional but I'm so glad we attended this one. I've attended regionals in Rochester, Annapolis and Cleveland; and FLR has always been my favorite venue. Former 4-year student and I've just now become a second year Mentor, so this is the first Regional I've attended in person in nearly 4 years and I'm ecstatic we could have won.

And I want to say great job to our alliance partners Team 191 and Team 3951. Great scorers and balancers the both of them. And what a brilliant idea The Suits had to feed us balls during Hybrid mode. You guys were great! Not to mention that 3951 got the Highest Rookie Seed award! We were extremely lucky nobody picked you guys for the second choice before it got back to us. All of us in the stands had our fingers crossed that none of the other Alliance Captain scouts saw your brilliance

I just wish I could attend the Buckeye Regional to see so many of you fantastic FRL teams compete yet again.

Also one last shout-out to G.R.R. I knew without a doubt you guys would get the nod for the Regional Chairman's Award

When I pick Fantasy FIRST for FLR I always take 340 (if I can get them) because they are money every time.

Re: 2012 Fingerlakes Regional

Wow, what an event. Even though I'm no longer on a team anymore, I did a fair bit of running around for 1126. I saw a lot of great teams compete, and a lot of teams I know SparX looks forward to seeing in St.Louis.

1126 started out really rough. We were having trouble on our new drive system, our auto targeting wasn't working, and our bridge manipulator was pretty sub-par. Thursday and Friday, we didn't really do much as a whole. Lot's of software changes, some critical decisions, a lot of hard work and lots of hours later, we had a robot that may not have been perfect, but it carried it's weight in matches, and got us onto the 5th seeded alliance. Thanks to 174 for allowing us to be on their alliance, and to 3173, for making a great partner. We look forward to working with you in the coming years

1507, 191 and 3951 was an unreal alliance. When I saw 1507 compete at Rally, I knew right off the bat they were going to be in line for winning the whole thing. When the X-Cats hit the field with that amazing robot of theirs, the deal was sealed. Throwing in one of the stand-out rookies at the event in 3951, that was icing on the cake.

340, 3015, 4124, and 3044. Honestly, as much as I loved your opponents in the finals, I was pulling for you. Maybe I'm biased because 1126 and 340 went to the finals last year, and I wanted to see 340 finish the job, but I was rooting so hard for you guys. The outcome was as expected (they were the #1 seeded alliance after all), but you guys put up one heck of a fight. If 3015 hadn't broken down that last match, I think you guys could have done it. Oh well, that's how it goes sometimes. I hope next year you get back to that stage, and maybe we can be there next to you again Also, congrats to 340 on another Chairman's Award. We still hope one day to earn that honor, but it's be hard to live up to the standard set by our friends from Churchville

A quick shout out goes to 639. 639, who hasn't been able to go to the world championships since 2005, earned the Engineering Inspiration award, and thus qualified to go! I watched their team's reaction as they realized they could go to St.Louis, and I was so proud of the team that 1126 has become such good friends with in recent years.

Congrats to everyone on another great Finger Lakes Regional. I'm considering volunteering next year, but one way or another, I look forward to seeing everyone again

Re: 2012 Fingerlakes Regional

What a regional! Despite persistent gremlins, that was one of the most fun, rewarding experiences of my FIRST career.

Congrats to everyone on an awesome event, and I'll see some of you in Cleveland!

Re: 2012 Fingerlakes Regional

Congratulations to team 340 on the Chairman's Award!
I dont know how many times you folks have won the RCA, but it certainly is impressive that you've done it a great no. of times in recent years.

How about posting the video?
The best part of seeing RCA's at various regionals is watching the video as we, the audience, get to see all that you folks do.

I'm hoping someone on 340 or 1511 has the videos of their incredible quarterfinal. Particularly the third one where 340's allaince won with a last second balance. It was amazing.
