Sorry for the omission - I added you in now! I keep thinking of more and more teams that I didn't think of initially...

I stand corrected... To add to their reputation a bit though, they were Regional Finalist 6 times, often losing narrowly to very strong alliances.

341 also has a CMP division win for Galileo in 2003.
The only time we ever appeared on Einstein was also our very first Blue Banner. What a thrill that was.

Who knows, might happen again this year!

BOB feels left out. We have 3 Regional Wins and 2 District Wins for a total of 5. Curie Division Winner in 2001 despite what the FIRST website says. Funnily enough we are 7 times finalists ( 2 District, 2 Regional, and 3 Division.) Maybe we can start a Finalist list.

Michael, Sorry for leaving 85 out! According to the FIRST website, you were a Division Winner in 2000... is that in addition to or instead of the 2001 Win? Congratulations on your team's success! :-)

The FIRST website is an astonishingly unreliable source for results.

Agreed... They seem pretty reliable if you don't go back beyond about 2002... their accuracy before that period seems "astonishingly unreliable," as you said. I've tried to put that as a disclaimer as much as I can! :-)

Their reliability past that point is pretty poor as well. Kearse and I spent some time this summer tracking data down and we found all sorts of mistakes in the FIRST databases.

So I see that we have the most regional wins without getting to Einstein....
I hope we change that one day.

Our current driver has 6 regional wins, 1 finalist, 2 IRI wins in his 9 regional/off-season tournaments he has done so far......and currently a junior.

With district events probably coming to California, I can see the Poofs start distancing themselves again from the rest of the pack, other than 67 and 1114.

Haha, you and us both waialua! I saw that HYPER's the 2nd without getting to Einstein and although we haven't won one in a few years, I have confidence that we will improve to one day make that dream come true.

7 regional wins
1 division win (2003)
9 regional/division finalists

Thanks for correcting me - I just added 343 to the list.

Yeah, you guys are due for an Einstein appearance! :-)

Glad to hear there was some effort to assess it... Perhaps teams could "fact-check" their own award history and submit revisions to FIRST? If there's a question of the integrity of this system of teams supplying their own award history, some sort of proof could be required. Perhaps a photo with the trophy or a bracket of the event. I'm not sure how to setup such a system, but it seems like it could help improve the reliability of the awards pages...

The data I believe FIRST has is paper so the 2000 is an error and should be 2001. Thank you, although we have had our bad years as well.

I forgot one regional win at the 1999 Great Lakes Regional with Legendary Team 71 and Team 27.http://www.technokats.org/documents/...greatlakes.pdf
