Re: Rochester Update

Hey guys,
Haven't checked in a while, here's some info.

LOADING ZONE
-Make sure both feet are in the loading zone! That's probably the most common penalty.

AUTONOMOUS
-Team 237 will be capping by the end of the regionals. No other team is attempting to cap, the other autonomous modes are
A. Starting with a tetra and stacking a goal next to them.
or
B. Knocking down the tetra next to them.
or
C. Nothing (Most common)

EDIT:
191 knocked 217 out of 2nd place, but rumor has it 237 is picking 217 as their alliance partner .

Re: Rochester Update

Just out of Rochester, from the boys on 237, i hear 237 picked 217 and 340.
2nd seed is 191 with 494 and 639. I didnt ask anymore though, didnt want to waste their prep time.

I must say though, but those 6 teams would be an interesting finals.

It would be very interesting - 494 and 639 have been playing some tough defense on us.

I traded 237 for 494...Best of luck to both. I wish 237 picked 494(no offence 217 lol)...but Ill just have to be torn in who to root for now.

Re: Rochester Update

1) 237, 217, 340
2) 191, 494, 639
3) 1559, 1450, 1591
4) 1507, 229, 772
5) 1567, 1126, 145
6) 326, 84, 211
7) 1511, 378, 1509
8) 38, 1370, 174

stole that from elgin's IM.

In my opinion, if finals turn out to be 1 vs 2, it will pave the way for the rest of the alliance selections this year. From what I know-1st seed is 2 offensive and one defensive, while 2nd seed is two defensive and one offensive. If that is the finals, whichever style wins, would really make the game for the rest of the year.

Re: Rochester Update

Through a poor cellphone signal, it sounded like 494's alliance advanced as well as 229's. I also might have heard that 237's alliance will be facing 229's next, which if they go highest seed advancing plays lowest seed advancing, means the third seed won as well. Dont quote me on this though.

I'm not sure if thats a rule, but in most Sports Tourneys, thats how it goes.

494 & co. advanced for sure.

EDIT: 237, 217, and 340 were just eliminated by 229 & co.

Re: Rochester Update

237 eliminated

Appearantly 237 had stacked about 8 tets, and then someone took a 30 point penalty, nullifying all 8 and 2 more. Jeez, the penalties are a bit much.

Re: Rochester Update

It was a great regional!
And not just because we won it all but I loved the atmosphere. The camraderie amongst the teams and the outright fun that everyone was having.
There were some amazing teams there.
First and foremost I want to thank 494 ( I forgive you for the ambush Kareoke ) and 639 for being great alliance partners. I guess the Angry Red Martian Cats pulled it out. You broken a 14 year drought and helped make a long time dream come true for us. Thank you so very much.
I want to congratulate team 1507. 772 and 229 for being such excellent opponents in the final. That last match was a doozy. I hope to see all of you guys down in Atlanta, in particular 229 who had an excellent robot and I was very disappionted to hear might not be going down because of funding. You guys deserve to be there so bend someone's arm to make it happen.
I want to congratulate 340 for winning the regional Chairman's Award. You are truly a leader in the Rochester FIRST community.
I also want to give a shout out to Rochester FIRST who put on a show from the aboved mentioned veterans and 211 MAK for another reward for their innovative robot to our impessive rookies from 1567 (my old school East High. I am so very proud of you guys), 1511 ( I guess your comming to the party after all) 1559( may this be the harbinger of bigger things for your program) , and 1551 (I hope it doesn't take 3 more years to get the funds you so richly deserve).
I want to congratulate 1450 for their amazing showing. I was so happy they did so well.
I would also like to commend 22 for comming from Cali to help out with the regional.
It was a great weekend. I can't wait to do it all again!
