Re: 2006 Finger Lakes Regional

Robots that caught my eye today (not including my own teams bot).
1559 (great autonomous mode)
229 (vomits out mass quanities and put on one heck of a show jumping straight off of the ramp )
1126 (when combined with 229 made for an insane show)
1901 (tough little bugger)
1511 (once they got it put back together it worked well)
340 (Jason was busting my chops that it wasn't doing anything in the morning and it was perfectly fine)
211 ( A little unstable but nice shooting mechnism and autonomous mode)

Good luck to all the teams at FLR. And a second nod to 639, 191, 340, 772, 229, 1511, 1126.

Re: 2006 Finger Lakes Regional

Team 1930 has fixed our robot and our shooting is accurate now, but we found out we can't go up the ramp the hard way (by falling down, nothing broke though).

So during the first week of MIT last fall, I was hanging out with a friend I met over the summer at camp. In the room, I noticed Dan Lopez after a few seconds delay (he drove for 191 last FLR w/me)... pretty awesome coincidence Good luck again to all FLR teams on this first day of qualification competition.

Thanks for sharing the photos, Ed. I look forward to seeing more soon.

It sure is hard sitting here, twiddling my thumbs, waiting for results at home.

Re: 2006 Finger Lakes Regional

I just got an update from Needel, he says 191 is in first with an 8-1 record, 1126 in second at 7-2, then a big old jumbled mess. 229 was sitting around 10thish/early teens.

He also said that the high score was about 109, 340-1126-229, that alliance is incredible. I dont know how the heck the randomizer spit that one out.

Re: 2006 Finger Lakes Regional

Well... As day 2 of competition winds down. I just wanna say kudos to all the teams out there. All robots looked very impressive.

Congratz to 229, 340, and 1126 for setting the regional high score so far with 109.

I just thought the match that got reset about 8 times before it actually went on was really funny. When they reset the system, they had everyone come onto the field and do the electric slide. It was originally gonna be a 3v2 match, but because of all the resets, it gave the other team enough time to come onto the field.

I was very surprised to see JVN as MC this year. He's doing a really great job.

CAN'T WAIT FOR TOMORROW!!!!!

Re: 2006 Finger Lakes Regional

Corey,

We have some awesome competitors here as well, especially some of the rookie teams.
It's definitely a greater variety with only 30 teams here vs Trenton's 63 teams since each team gets 13 matches each.

Congratulations all today's award winners especially to FLR WFA Jason Rees of 340 and SparX for their Awesome controls - (Go Mike Bortfedlt and Team!) We sure do Xerox proud this weekend!

Ellery
