The Challengers list is up! 48 Challengers, 27 Ready Reserves.

A new record this year as the event filled in 3 minutes! The difference between making the initial cut and not was less than a 10th of a second...

Re: BattleCry@WPI 13 - Reg Open 4-Apr 0800

We didn't make the 48. How likely do you think it'll be that we will be asked to fill in if we're about 10th on the Ready Reserves list? We're in CT so we would need to make logistics arrangements. I can't believe it filled so fast!

Yes, it surprised us how quickly it filled up as well! The 48th team's time stamp was 08:02:13.866450 AM!

I'd say your chances are pretty high being 10th on the list, but it isn't likely to happen until after the payment deadline has passed (which I believe is prior to CMP, I need to double-check).

Re: BattleCry@WPI 13 - Reg Open 4-Apr 0800

After a 4 year hiatus, the UberBots will once again be attending Battlecry (we last went in 2007). I'm really excited for this, and I've herd some great things about the event.

I think that makes it a 5-year hiatus

I'm super excited that we're back this year!

We didn't attend in 2008, 2009, 2010, or 2011. I count four years.
