Atlanta Web Hug!

[Ryan Albright]

Brandon,

Can we maybe set it up close to lunch on thursday or close to the end of the day?

[Andy Baker]

OK, darnit... I missed last year's webhug and I was pretty ticked about it. I will not miss this one, for sure. I give license to anyone to personally kick my butt if I miss this again.

When?
Where?
How long?

Andy B.

We'll post an announcement on the main portal page when we come up with a date/time we will be having it.

Brandon said "live in these forums" I was wondering if there was an eticate thing to deal with activity on the forums. I am fairly new and not uber active /looks up at post #/ . So i was wondering are all delphiers invited or is it just the more active ones. *wow i sound like a super newb - no offense- just curious in a not knowing because of lack of experience manner* Anyway if i can go i will try to find time with driving and all. /frowns, doesn't look good/
Thanks

Anyone can go, some people do some dont. I know i missed it in past years but this year i am excited about meeting everyone (i can). If you have the chance i would suggest anyone to try to come, i have found it awesome to meet other FIRSTers and see what they are like, maybe you will mke some new friends.

lol, maybe..... but on a serious note, it was our bot. it is quit nice this year I must say. (check signature) we turned some heads in the inspection and in the pits. they are pretty funny stories, PM me if you wish to hear some.

[edit/] sorry, i meant to say signature, my bad *doh*, (yes that is last years field, a PARC)[/edit]

That, umm... looks like last year's field.

Anywho, was their even a webhug last year?? I didn't hear anything mentioned in Houston and don't remember seeing anything here about it either. If there was, I wasn't there.. :-(

Thursday is good, but maybe later in the day so you can get an announcement made hopefully. I know previous yers that FIRST was hesitant of announcing it (I'm personally wondering why, since they seem to be touting these forums more and more on the website, and also at kickoff thanks to Dave Lavery.)

Maybe signs could be made up and hung very early Thursday morning, or even maybe Wednesday night if we could get acces to the arena (doubtful) - At least hang some signs up at the front doors or entrance somehow.

If volunteers are need to help with this, I'm sure some people from these forums would be willing to help.

Hopefully see you all there.

Here is what we have planned so far:

Thursday, Noon, Location TBD.

*mind wanders* Big sign in our pit, team members waving big sign thruout pits, sandwich sign "I'm going to a special webhug event!!!"

There was one, if I remember correctly it was between the two stadiums near some big Flag poles.

Oh, ok.. well thanks Aaron. I must have just missed it last year. Oh well.

By the way:

If anyone wants to trade shirts in Atlanta anytime, or during the CD Webhug PM me soon!!

I have about 6 left to trade!!!

Good idea, Pat. I think I might let my backup play during one of the practice rounds too. It'd be really cool to meet people from CD. See you all there!

[Greg Ross]

Last year, I had plans for (but never got around to) making myself a name tag something like this. Maybe this year.
