5 States are going to be represented at the event, with teams from Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas.

There will be 6 rookie teams at the event.

This is a later event in the season, and many of the teams have competed outside of Oklahoma. There are 3 teams coming to Oklahoma already qualified for an invitation to St. Louis (932, 1296, 1806). That means an even better chance for wildcards to be in play at the event.

Stream: TBA

I believe 932 has also qualified already so there should be 3 wild cards up for grabs.

Ah, yes, EI in Dallas, I must have missed that.

I'm interested to see what 1296 and 1806 have done since their last regional. Have they added an autonomous, made things faster, or even changed a whole sub system? Going to be a great weekend and a battle between these teams as they score about the same amount who ends up first seed and do they pick each other?

We've tried a bunch of new things... guess we will have to see if any of them actually work ;-)

Tornado sirens going off during load-in on Wednesday evening - exciting regional already!

[BSV]

Just FYI about what's going on Friday evening near downtown OKC:

#1 Free baseball game at the Bricktown Ballpark. Mount St. Mary (home of Atomic Shock 2723) versus OCS. 7pm

#2 H&8th -- gourmet food trucks (over 30, yummy) and live music. On Hudson between NW 6th and NW 9th. It's usually a packed - more so as it gets later in the evening. 7pm to 11pm http://www.h8thokc.com/

#3 NCAA Women's basketball tournament at the Chesapeake Arena (across the street - home of the Thunder). Baylor vs. Iowa at 6:30 p.m., followed by Notre Dame vs. Stanford at approximately 9 p.m

Have fun!

Scores are coming through here: http://frc-events.usfirst.org/2015/OKOK/qualifications

[EMHS2773]

I'm watching the score ticker, but does anyone know why the live feed isn't working? It's been pretty decent in the past, and it's frustrating being up at school not being able to watch my alumnus compete.

Hey, just FYI for everyone, stream is up with no audio here: http://www.twitch.tv/stevenbell

It's watchable and it's full field. Excellent! No sound - more than a little eerie. FRC without noise scares me.

Sorry about the earlier lack of webstream and of sound - this is what happens when you try to run a webcast from a couple thousand miles away. The twitch account got blocked for streaming non-gaming content, so we'll hopefully be live on ustream tomorrow at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/129116. I'll post an update if something changes.

Again, apologies for the frustration of not having a properly-working webcast when your team is competing. Having been in that situation myself, I can sympathize.

Hey, it eventually got running, so it's no big deal. Thanks for putting in the time and effort for us to have a stream at all.

Also, will the stream outage have any effect on the matches making it to YouTube at some point?

[sebell7]

Webcast is now up and running (with audio this time) at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/oklaho...otics-regional

We were able to record from match 33 till the end of the day yesterday, and will eventually get those on youtube/TBA, but unfortunately, no, we don't have the video from the morning.
