Re: CT and MA Area Teams

Is anybody else not able to get team 230's webcast? It says they will start broadcasting at 0900 but it is 0940 and I am still not getting anything? Just curious if it is something wrong on my end or something on theirs?

Re: CT and MA Area Teams

Yeah. When I click the link from the home page, I get a page that says:
Code:
<ASX version="3.0">
   <ENTRY>
<ref href="http://159.247.235.150/channel_230_300" />


   </ENTRY>

</ASX>

When I enter the link in the href attribute into my browser (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0) manually, Windows Media Player attempts to open it but encounters an "unknown error".

ON EDIT: Tried it in Internet Explorer. Clicking the link from the Main Page brought up Windows Media Player, which returned the following error message: "Windows Media Player cannot connect to the server. The server name may be incorrect or the server is busy. Try again later."

Re: CT and MA Area Teams

It seems that the problem has been fixed - works now. (I used IE.)

Re: CT and MA Area Teams

I should have gone... I just slept in and missed my ride... By like 5 minutes... and they were a quarter of a mile down the road... and wouldn't wait/pick me up... I was so mad and upset... This is so bad... :0( :0( fine I guess I'll just have to save all my energy for BAE Regional...

Comp looks good though...

Re: CT and MA Area Teams

We had an AWESOME time today! It was great seeing everyone's different robot designs and game strategies, and seeing people we haven't seen since last season.


Good luck to everyone in the upcoming season!

Thumbs up Re: CT and MA Area Teams

Nice job to all the teams who attended today.

From ACES HIGH's point of view the scrimmage went off beautifully and as usual everyone got to work out a few kinks.

I hope that it worked out just as well for everyone else

I guess this is the point where I will leave this thread open for any comments and suggestions that y'all may have in regards to the scrimmage setup so that it may be bigger and better for the 2006 season!

Get some sleep everyone!

The scrimmage was a blast and very well run. The only suggestion I would have for in the future would be to try to make the announcers a little bit clearer. It sounded very echoy and undistinct at the competion. It might just be an acousitics thing you can't fix, but sometimes it was a little bit hard to hear what was going on.

Then again, I was usually so focused on the game I wasn't listening anyway

Re: CT and MA Area Teams

Was there a scoring system ready for the scrimmage? I didn't see the usual win/loss/ranking screens or a score projected in the gym like the last couple years.

Re: CT and MA Area Teams

Yes, we noticed the scoring and acoustics issues. Love the music; impossible to hear the announcing over it!

Also, lesson learned - check your tables when you arrive BEFORE you put your robot on them. Make sure the legs are locked into place. Ours collapsed, narrowly missing people's feet under it, and narrowly missing hitting them in the head as the robot went down. Fortunately no one was injured.

Also, some organization tips - your registration table needs to be better marked; everyone was coming to me at the NEMO table. It might be good to make up a flyer explaining the game and FIRST program, or provide FIRST brochures or something for visitors and post them somewhere where visitors would find it. I spoke at length with someone who had simply seen this advertised online (or in the paper?) and I had no materials with me about FIRST to give to her that would better explain the program [make note to self, pack some with me for UTC regional].
