See you all there! I'll be the coach with the blue hair.

And they always have really good food and whatnot to do

See you all there!

I feel kind of stupid
But am I the only one that can't find the images section in the site???

All I see is the news in the middle, banner on top and sponsors on the left

There should be a navigation bar with the banner on the top. If it's not viewable, it might be getting blocked by your web browser (I know for some reason Internet Explorer blocks the navigation bar when I use it, and I have to allow access to it so the site can be navigated properly).

Here's a link directly to the scouting page, you won't really be able to navigate anywhere else on the site though because this page is supposed to be opened in one of the frames on the main page.

And I've been able to add 3 more teams to the scouting section!

2 days left! We're somewhat disorganized, but I think ready enough.

We have nothing to hide. You may view some more pics of ours on the home page of our website www.team696.com

BTW, can anyone who's not attending a regional this week/weekend record the Phoenix webcast for me and somehow get it to me later? I'll send you a free 25' serial cable

I personally dont have any pictures of the finished robot. sorry. just have to wait a couple of days to see it.

Do you want the webcast, or the actual matches from the regional? We'll be recording some there (I just verified this today), I just don't know how many of them or how long it could take to make available.

It's okay to wait now; less than 2 days left!

Everybody tells me to wait. I am supposed to be building our practice robot tonight. We are leaving in the morning. Yeah. Um. I haven't yet decided if I'm going to do it or not. Starting to lean towards not.

EDIT: No practice robot for this event.

Do you know if team 60 (or anyone else) is doing the Castles and Coasters thing again like they tried to do in 2004? We missed out that year due to rain, but might be interested in going again.

I don't know anything about Team 60 this year (I couldn't even find a picture of their robot, sad because they always have good ones).

I have not heard about anything going on at Castles and Coasters for this year, so don't count on anything being there for it. Currently the forecast is set to rain various days during the Regional, and if it finally does rain that would probably kill the thing anyway.

And it's okay; we've never had a practice robot, and we always seem to come out just fine.

Wow! I see on the rankings Canada's being represented quite well in Arizona by 1006 and 1241... 1006 is currently undefeated and in 1st place!!! 1241 is up there as well, awesome!

Nice job teams!!!!

Does anybody have any pictures of Team 60?

[Ryan Dognaux]

I just heard via word of mouth that Cyber Blue 234 received 4 of the 6 awards given out today - Website, Imagery, Entrepreneurship, and the Regional Woodie Flowers Award to Chris Fultz.

Congrats you guys!! Can't WAIT to watch tomorrow on NASA TV!!!

EDIT: It's confirmed, link here: http://www2.usfirst.org/2006comp/Events/AZ/awards.html

WOW. Great job and congratulations!!

330's alliance scored 99 in one match today.

I have pics of 60 but I can't get them online until Sunday. Cory, it has your wheels but gold. It has your same gearbox as last year. It is not dom9nating but is doing quite well.

Not quite. The word on my team is that 1006 lost their first match. I haven't seen the standings myself yet.
