2014 - MadTown ThrowDown Registration

Exact location and time TBD, but likely Saturday afternoon.

To all those interested in attending, the workshop details have been finalized. The workshop will be at 10am Saturday (during practice matches, so no real matches will be missed) in the Madtown robotics lab classroom (see attached image totally not made in MS Paint). There will be signs out detailing where to go, and an announcement will be made during the event.

Even if you cannot make the workshop, if you have any specific topics you would like Adam to go over relating to these subjects, post them here or message me and I will let him know.

Are there any plans to webcast this event? I looked on TBA and 1323's website and didn't see a link.

Is the webcast going to be up for eliminations? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zanvAQ0xknA looks like the right stream ("MadTown ThrowDown Day 2") but it has been saying "Please Stand By. We're experiencing technical difficulties" all day.

EDIT: Nevermind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLK4Kmvp21w was pointed out to me.

Team 254 had an awesome time at Madtown Throwdown. Thanks to Team 1323, Team 1671, and all the volunteers for putting on the event!

Also, thanks to Adam Heard for his workshop on Saturday. Myself and the 254 drive-team learned a lot.

We're looking forward to MTTD next year!

Thank you all for coming down, and thank you for bringing your truss last minute and saving the competition when our field didn't ship with one. Y'all seriously should have gotten the GP award for that. Congrats on the win guys, and we hope to see you next year.

Any chance that Adam's workshop was recorded?
