SCRIW (South Carolina Robotics Invitational and Workshops) II - 2012

[JohnFogarty]

I'm almost completely positive Magic will be making the trip to SCRIW again this year, having felt this was the most solid robot the team has ever constructed we all want a second chance to prove ourselves.

I'm still hoping we have a chance to go to IRI as well, but nothing is for certain.

I had to submit your website for review on Lightspeed Systems, the Aiken County School System's website blocker. -___-
They categorize things into blogs without having anyone look at the website, they even did it to my team's website because it used Wordpress.

Apparently Light-speed thinks you sell drugs.

An "R" rating! Billfred, you need to clean that site up, it's inapropriate for high-school children

Can't wait! With St. Louis out of the picture for this year, I am really looking forward to the off-season.

I might have to make a trip to IRI this year, just to watch some great bots

Well, some say that robotics is addictive...

I know we plan to bring a swarm of flyers to Championship to hook teams we normally can't reach. If Bacon can make the trip, so can you!

[JohnFogarty]

I got an email from light speed. They recategorized your website.

Just sent in my app to volunteer! Hopefully I'll be able to referee again, or try out being a backup emcee/announcer.

Kyle,

I meant to email you (blame a St. Louis hangover from hell), but I got your application. Expect an email around August to firm things up.

just a quick question, will there be any recording of the event going on? I'm wondering if the event can be webcast online. It would be awesome to get it on The Red Alliance for others to see.

Like you, I'd like to see it happen. However, our higher priority is on ensuring the in-house AV is improved from last year (read: there's at least one nice, legible screen). Between that, the new venue, and the new venue's different network, the official answer is "we'll see".

I have quite a bit of A/V setup experience, I can help setup and test equipment if needed.

I need to talk with the guys upstairs to make sure but I am almost positive that team 342 will be there. Hope it is as fun as last year!

I'd heard something similar from many of the SCRIW I veterans. I plan to send a gentle nudge email out this week...it's a lot easier to sign up when you're looking at your email than when I'm slinging flyers at events.
