Re: 2014 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus
But they were here last year. We need Moar Canadians! At least a third of the event if not half!

Re: 2014 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus
We had a great time last year and the year before. The new venue is excellent. I'm spreading the word so let's hope for more Canadian teams.

Re: 2014 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus
I remember you guys saying that at the end of the event last year.

Re: 2014 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus
We're currently debating it. It will at least be 42 teams.

That is all. |

Re: 2014 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus
Please do not extend the cap. While I understand the desire for more teams, please understand the desire of the teams attending for more matches.
Also, I am so pumped that 1114 is attending. Heck yeah! |

Re: 2014 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus
That's my feeling as well. 48 teams (the reasonable next cap number past 42) is for day and a half event far as I'm concerned (like Battlecry) and we're not ready for that kind of commitment yet ( I was going to say running a two day is impossible in the Fall and then I remembered Cowtown Throwdown. I should visit there one day to see how they do it out West).

Thanks for the input - helpful comments like these are what really lets us tailor Ruckus into the event that our attendees want. For everyone, The planning committee is carefully considering (read: heavily, heavily discussed!) the delicate balance between the desire for a "big" feeling event and the desire for more matches by those attending. While we aren't 100% certain yet and I cannot provide any guarantees, our general feeling is basically in agreement with your concern in that we don't want to push past 42 teams even if we can physically accommodate that at the venue. Again, that's not a hard number just yet, but it's a rough target that we're trying to zero in on as we get through some more planning details. All that said, we've seen a record number of registrations in just the first few days here (thank you teams!!). If you are on the fence about registering, I suggest getting your team to discuss it soon and get your registration in! Remember that payment is not due immediately. If your team has questions about the event or the registration process, please use the contact form on the website (http://ruckus.penfieldrobotics.com) and we'll get back to you very quickly. Comments left here also work, but contacting via the site will get you a reply much faster. We also welcome suggestions and any feedback on last year's event that you didn't get to provide or just want to remind us of I'm looking forward to a great event and am excited for Ruckus #10! |

This doesn't mean we're full! But we're getting close! Again, if interested please get your team to register soon! On behalf of the planning committee, I can say we've been positively overwhelmed at the response this year and are so delighted that so many teams, near and far, are interested in Ruckus. We can't wait for this year's event!! (ps - Volunteer registrations will open soon!) |

Re: 2014 Rah Cha Cha Ruckus
Something else to consider is that to accommodate more teams you could extend the event a little later. A few more qual rounds after lunch wouldn't be unreasonable. This is more tiring on volunteers though.
