Wednesday's always the worst, eh? You send everyone and their mother off to competition, and there's no webcast, not even practice rounds....and no one is posting on Delphi because no one has access while traveling....so you just have to assume that all is well.

Give a yell here if you're going to be around. Maybe we can get a chat room going or something later on.
I'm still here too. I'll be on from time to time.

Oh, and Jess, I set Elgin's laptop up with one of the wireless cards from one of my laptops yesterday. If he's able to locate a network down there he'll be on at times. I don't know if there's any wireless network capabilities at Nats but I set him up just in case.

Re: Here's to the stragglers!

Hmmm..definetly wish our team would be going to nationals..but that would definetly not be happening. Anyways, count me in anything exciting that happens around here. We'll make them regreat going to nationals ....no..I don't think that would be possible.

Re: Here's to the stragglers!

I know I don't have Nasa TV on my cable in the dorms. So for all that don't have Nasa TV and would rather watch that than the division webcasts, Nasa TV is also webcast 24 hours a day.

Here the link Nasa TV

I don't know what the difference is going to be, but just in case.

Yes, Jess, get that chatroom going. Due to...unforseen events...I'm not attending nationals this year.

Re: Here's to the stragglers!

I'm holding down the fort since there's really no useful reason for me to be at competition this season.

I'll use the money saved for something just as fun and probably corral some FIRST people into joining me (*cough* Jim and Bill *cough*)

Wednesday's always the worst, eh?

Wednesday was a little depressing for me. I was snapping at my co-workers all day and drowning my sorrow with Diet Cokes.
Two teams I mentored this year qualified for the Nats but are not going. Maybe next year. Thursday is going to be tougher.

But can't wait for Friday! Thanks NASA Webcast & NASA-TV.

Re: Here's to the stragglers!

Call me cynical and a poor sport, but this would be much easier to take if remote internet access wasn't around. With the hotels giving free internet access a ton of CD users are still able to post, telling about how much fun they're having. I want fun too

Re: Here's to the stragglers!

I'm probably one of the last to leave--

Sitting here at Bradley Airport outside of Hartford, CT-- taking the "cheap" way to fly down-- next stop is cleveland, then to atlanta. On the way home i fly through Minnesota -- go figure

Hopefully Atlanta is nice and warm... see ya'll when its over!

You're worrying that they all get there allright, and you're jealous because you know that traveling with a bunch of FIRSTers is one of the best ways to travel...

Give a yell here if you're going to be around. Maybe we can get a chat room going or something later on.

I'm here, its Thursday and theres still radio silence, no webcast, no videos....ahh! someone inform me.....

Whats everyone else up to?

Yeah, new rule. No content is allowed on ChiefDelphi about nationals. Period.

Re: Here's to the stragglers!

The only one who was able to go from our team was our Advisor Dave Kelso (Woodie Flowers award nominee!). He wanted to bring us so bad but we didn’t qualify and don’t have the cash to go down.

If anyone talks to him let him know that CHAOS says "HI, and GOOD LUCK!"

Trust me. She is most geeky. Carrying around a "How to Build Robot Drivetrains" book. And reading it in short breaks between wiring up rather complicated circuits involving seven segment displays and combinational logic.
