No no. I'll rig up my d7000 with a 35mm lens and follow focus to the rig and have the lead match videographer use it If there's one thing I can promise it is good video

I'm sure the event would be fun, I personally would love to try playing a human match, but I'm just saying test it out before finalizing the event so that any issues can be addressed. That'll make for a much smoother event.
Thanks for the advice after some testing today we concluded in the higher level matches with better teams it will be close. Other then that the human wins. That's why we opted for Elims to be human matches and have the rest robot to robot so there is still a competitive aspect.

Re: The first human vs robot off season event - Long Island

For the field and game pieces I'd start by checking with the districts that are near you. I'm not sure if NE or MAR would be willing to do so but the PNW district fields are rented out for off-season events. Last season that is what was used by Chezy Champs and the demo event at the Salt Lake City Comicon, in addition to the two in district off-season events. We included the use of game pieces when the field is rented. For the in-district events a rental truck with a liftgate is used to transport the field. Before the PNW District came into existence it cost around $10,000 for the round trip shipping for the field and FMS.

Does this mean that you could draft Human teams and Robot teams separately? Or will each team play an even number of matches in all elims matches so that their average score can factor in their performance as humans?

I definitely think it is a good idea to save it for the end though so that you don't have everyone get physically exhausted while potentially working with dangerous robots.

I meant it opposite sorry. Qualms wills be robot vs human. And then people just draft robots for elims. But the 2 top seeded human players will draft human players for their team and there will be a finals round of human vs human.

That's where we are development wise. Over the weekend we are going to choose a name branding start typing rules schedule the whole nine yards.

To add on to what Mr. V said.

I would highly look into either getting your field from a nearby district if possible. Both MAR and NE loan their fields, however I'm not sure if either loan them outside of the district.

With that said, your very lucky enough that FIRST HQ is relatively close. I would get a field from them over AndyMark, because your shipping expenses would be much much cheaper.

We will look into it. We would need a carpet but I heard half hollow hills brought this year's carpet home so we shall see if we can rent it from them or give me then free entry.

I haven't met too many 6 week old humans who are over 6ft 6.

Re: The first human vs robot off season event - Long Island

Update 2:

So we have decided on a name

The Cyborgames


Right now we are in the process of figuring out the cheapest way to secure a field.

Andymark has been ruled out since it will cost over 3k in travel expenses. At this point it down to first hq or Mar. Both will be similarly priced depending on whether the Thundercolts (or other surrouding team with this years carpet) will lend us their carpet.

We will be meeting with the school board to figure out a date and whether we can have access to all facilities.

The game rule book is also being worked on.

Team 1796 offered to help host the event which will be a great help!

Right now our biggest issue is finding volunteers who are qualified for positions like FTA's, Refs, and scorers.

With some rough estimates it seems we can accomadate about 35-40 teams with 7 by 7 pits.

theres still a lot to work out but it should be fun!

Heres the first rev of the Logo!

Have you ever tried to do anything in a 7x7 pit? That's half the space teams are used to.
