2005 Boilermaker Regional

[Amanda Morrison]

Folks,

We are only one day away from this much anticipated regional!
Serving as Teams Coordinator, I've had some great requests, and worked on a lot of suggestions for our regional. I wanted to make sure to state that if there is anything else I can do for you (coming as an individual) or your team (competing at the regional, or just coming to enjoy) in the next few days, feel free to get in touch with me. I'll be more than happy to solve a problem, answer questions... pretty much do everything but fix the robot!

Also, as a side note, if you are a participant in the regional, fill out your activity survey as soon as possible! You'll receive a lanyard and name badge customized for you and your team. Your team leader has already received information about this. Don't be the only one without one! You can find the activity survey at http://first.purdue.org/boilermakerr...ctivitysurvey/.

Thanks, and let's have a great competition!
Amanda Morrison

Has there been a webcast secured for this regional yet?

Unfortunately, I will not be able to make it there until Saturday and it would be great to keep track of my team's action from work on Friday.

Thanks

We are currently working on securing a webcast URL. As soon as we have it, we will post it on our website. The website has been posted in this thread several times.
Please check back often - we do not know when we will have it available, but hope to soon.
Thanks,

Yeah, I didn't mean spy photo per say.
But that pic on the indianafirst website DOES look like a spy photo.

Actually, it's pretty funny, I was watching the webcast this afternoon and saw The Beast practicing. But from the angle and the distance that the camera was at I couldn't see team names or numbers. But I could sure see the robot was driving well and scoring a heck of a lot of tetras. I thought to myself, "Hey, I bet that's The Beast" Turns out I was right!

[Kyle Love]

One of the best scoring robots I saw today was team 868. They tried to stack 6 tetras at one time! They only got 4 to stick though. Wildstang is a sight to see...a very unique lift with 2 tetra holders. Hammond looks pretty good. Tomorrow night we will all know who is really doing good. Good luck to all teams there!
