Re: the IndyRAGE - Robotics All Girls Event

With the small number of teams (14) we modified the alliances and playoffs a little.

We played 2 v 2 with a 10 minute cycle time to allow time between matches for repairs, discussions and planning. The slower cycle time was a benefit with so many "new" drive teams and volunteers.

After qualifications, the top 7 ranked teams pulled their alliance partner from a hat, to form 2 team alliances. We then played 7 matches so each alliance played twice, an the top 2 alliances then moved to Finals. Finales were best 2 of 3.

The top 7 Alliances are below.
1 2826 - 461
2 5188 - 234
3 1024 - 829
4 4103 - 3940
5 1501 - 2781
6 3494 - 1529
7 4926 - 1720

For the finals, Alliance 1 and 2 advanced for a best of 3.
Alliance 2 (5188-234) won match 1, Alliance 1 (2826-461) won matches 2 and 3 to be Champions.

For awards, we had "Host / Judges" who spent time with the teams, about 30 - 40 minutes talking with a goal of the Host learning about the team, and the team learning about their host (all professional women, most in engineering / technical roles).

Awards

2826 - #1 Rank
1024 - Awesome Technical Description
829 - Best Use of Controls
5188 - Best Team Dynamics
3940 - Girl Power (Team Spirit)
2826 - Judges Awesome Award
2826 - Mentor Award

Thanks to Perry Meridian High School for letting us host this event, to all of the volunteers (many who were new to FIRST), to the PMHS Dad's Club for doing concessions, and to all of the teams who took a chance on a new event and new event concept. We had an awesome time.
