Phoenix update?

[Cactus_Robotics]

Yea some of those matches on the first website are wrong like for instance Q42 the final match of the day the red aliance accually won 28 - 27 but it says the blue won so i dont know whats wrong

[Daniel Brim]

Alliance selections should be over by now. I wonder if they'll load those and update the last few matches on the rankings (11th=good for us but our last match was against 60).

[Daniel Brim]

So who were the regional/award winners?

I was wondering what the alliance parings were as well. I was wondering how each one did. I was wondering if the FIRST website would update the match results as well.

[Daniel Brim]

It appears to have been updated, but the matches are wrong. For example, look at SF 1-1, where an alliance playes itself.

[Matt]

look at the finals where 1212 is vs 1212 so that makes very little sense to me. O well we will have to see when someone comes back from the regional.

[Daniel Brim]

Well, I am quite annoyed at the
A. Weird formatting of the matches
B. The fact that FIRST has not yet posted the awards, and
C. That no one is home yet (curse my impatience).

So who won the Az regional? Does anyone know considering people are posting scores from Az but no results on who won

It's been about 4 hours since the regional ended and there's no scores or match results.

It's been about 7 days since last week's regionals and most have no scores or match results.

The match results for phoenix are seriously messed up. It shows 980 (and their partners) winning two quarterfinal matches in a row, but it does not show them playing again after that. Someone from Cactus 498 is on right now, hopefully they'll discover this thread and post.

I was at the Regional, so I'll post what I remember.

#1 at the end of qualifiers was 980 (Thunderbots) with a 9-3 record. There were 4 other teams also with 9-3 records (555, 842, 498, 1492) at the end, with rankings in that order. The other 3 in the top 8 were 991, 60, and I can't remember the other team.

The Regional Champions were 1492, 555, and 1324. The other finalists were 987, 991, and 1212.

The highest score at the Regional was 112 to 13, set by 498 (us), 1492, and 1290. Second highest was 84 set by 980, 498 (us), and 96.

842 won the Chairman's award. 60 won the Engineering Inspiration award.

I thought the Regional was awesome, but we were doing pretty well, so that adds to it (we scored over 60 points in 4 of our matches).

Don't believe alot of what is posted on FIRST about the Regional right now, the rankings and scores are way off on there.

Team 842 Falcon Robotics, Carl Hayden Community High School as the Chairman's Winner. That was us. The rest is a blurr, I am so happy.

[Daniel Brim]

Sounds great, I'm sorry I had to miss it.

Does anyone know if 294 won any awards?

I can't get in contact with anybody, so I'm still in the dark.

Daniel,

There were definitely some scoring system anomalies at the Arizona Regional and the information being posted as of 3/12/2005 10:00EST is questionable. Here are some of the awards that I’m aware of. Your team did win one!
High Score was 112 and that alliance got all eight triple plays!

There was definitely something wrong with the scoring system at Phoenix. During a couple matches on Friday, the qualifying points awarded to us in the ranking system were the number of penalty points deducted from the other alliance's score. The pit admin (or whoever was doing the scoring) even told us at one point they couldn't do anything about it, even though it was seriously skewing the rankings. I think they eventually resolved it, but I am still not entirely confident with the final scores at the end of the qualifying matches.

Nonetheless, it was still a spectactular regional, and I would just like to thank our finalist partners 587 and 1212. I hope to play again with 587 in Vegas! The winning alliance was definitely impressive and they certainly displayed a lot of class by calling their timeout to allow 587 to fix their arm. It was an honor losing to them!
