Another shout out to the the Number 1 alliance of 2883,3293, and 1816. You were a fantastic alliance. I am sad that things did not work out between us and 3293, but you guys were fantastic and I look forward to competing with you guys in future events.

One last shout out to 1816, fantastic job at winning the Chairman's award. Your team really did deserve it and I wish you the best of luck at Championship.
Thanks 'Stang, we really enjoyed working with you at North Star and we will see you in St. Louis.

John

Re: 2012 MN 10,000 Lakes | North Star Regionals

We would like to extend our thanks to teams 2530 and 2538. You were amazing alliance partners, and we could not have been happier to get picked by you guys.

Congrats teams 525, 3747, and 3081 on the well deserved win. I would also personally like to thank team 525, you guys are a class act and we love competing with and against you every year. Your consistency year in and year out has helped raise the bar in our region and our regional is getting better and better every year because of it.

I would also like to thank teams 2052, 3018, and 4021 for some of the most exciting FRC matches I have ever seen much less been a part of.

It was a wonderful event, and our volunteers were amazing (as always).

Re: 2012 MN 10,000 Lakes | North Star Regionals

John,

Congratulations to you as well! I didn't get a chance to see any of the action next door, but I heard it was quite a competition. You have a great group of students and mentors over there and I am very happy to hear that you did so well!

We are very excited to be making the trip to St. Louis this year and look forward to seeing you there.

Mike

Re: 2012 MN 10,000 Lakes | North Star Regionals

On behalf of 3018, Nordic Storm, I'd like to thank 2052 and 4021 for being great alliance partners. We enjoyed working with you both! The semi final matches were a blast. Congrats to 2538, 2530 and 2232 for those competitive rounds - you earned those wins! And finally congrats to 525, 3747, and 3081 for winning the finals at 10,000 Lakes.

I would be remiss if I did not congratulate the kids on my team for their smooth teamwork and efficiency on rebuilding our shooter and debugging it on Thursday. Well done!

Deb

We would like to congratulate 525, 3747 and 3081 (our sister school!) on the win yesterday! Also great job to 2538, 2530 and 2232 for getting to the final rounds!

Have matches at North Star been recorded and uploaded somewhere (TBA/Youtube)? And if so, is there a download link of them? I would like to make a montage of our team's work.

Re: 2012 MN 10,000 Lakes | North Star Regionals

We'll be getting them on the blue alliance within the next week hopefully. We were arching the low res stream on Ustream in chunks; you may have to sift through them a little bit to find your particular match.

Re: 2012 MN 10,000 Lakes | North Star Regionals

On behalf of 2052, I would like to echo Deb's comments in thanking 3018 and 4021 for a great alliance, and congratulate 2538, 2530 and 2232 on the very exciting and inspiring semi-finals matches. When the combined score is over 140 pts, you know Minnesota FIRST teams can compete with the best of 'em! A huge thank you to jvriezen of 2530 for posting the excellent videos! And of course, congratulations to all of the teams who competed at 10,000 Lakes, especially 525, 3747, and 3081 for the Finals win, and 3630 on Chairman's! Thanks to all of the event staff and volunteers, especially Mark Koors for his dedication in working through the communication issues and patience with all the teams whose emotions were running high.

The one drawback of our double-regional setup is that we don't get to see all of the greatness happening simultaneously across the street. It sounds like North Star was an exciting and inspiring event and I wish I could have witnessed it live. I'm really looking forward to the inaugural State Championships, which promise to be an excellent showcase of Minnesota's best!

Thank you Katie and everyone else for all the kind words. I have long known that Minnesota teams can compete with the best of them, and I look forward to seeing many MN teams in St. Louis.

When the combined score in the last finals match is 98, and there are no penalty or bridge points involved... I think a lot of other areas of the country are starting to take notice of what is happening up here!

Congratulations to 525, 3747, and 3081 for the hard fought Finals win, and 3630 on Chairman's! And a big THANK YOU to 2538 and 2232 for being great alliance partners and for a very exciting Saturday afternoon!!

Re: 2012 MN 10,000 Lakes | North Star Regionals

Once again my wife and I had a great time up north. Thank you all for the warm welcome and great competition. I have watched Minnesota growth over the years and find that the best rookies are coming from this part of the country. Thanks to all for a great weekend especially alliance partners 2512 and 4266 for a flawless finals. To 2883, 3293 and 1816 you guys are amazing, sorry we had to play against you. Good luck 1816 on your Chairman's bid in St. Louis.

Re: 2012 MN 10,000 Lakes | North Star Regionals

I want to echo Camren's post and say Thank You to everyone who was at the 10000 Lakes Regional. In particular, thanks go to our alliance partners 525 Swartdogs and 3747 Chaotech for having the faith in our team and robot to select us for the #2 alliance.

This was the first year that the team felt it had a chance to be selected in the draft, with the robot doing well in autonomous and bridge balancing. Who knew that we'd not only be selected, but end up teaming with two great partners to come out on top.

Also a big thank you to all of the volunteers who helped put on the event, and the sponsors who fund the program.

Steve
