2006 SBPLI Long Island Regional

2 weeks to go and I'm as excited as ever, but with so much planning to still do. I'm glad Hofstra took FIRST again, Sufolk Community College was a long drive with little seating.

Who else is looking foward to the LI Regional? I'm seeing a few of the Long Island robots on the other webcasts and I'm getting excited in facing them again.

Re: SBP Long Island Regional

we will be there also but I happen to prefer Suffolk not for how much closer for us it is because I realize it is not closer for everyone. My reason for preferring Suffolk is the food there was a better value and I also felt the pits were more spacious there.

Re: SBP Long Island Regional

Team 545 is going to SBPLI. I prefer Hofstra because of the location, but I was not happy with the food or pit size last year. I heard that Hofstra will have shuttle buses this year to take people to the main cafeteria during lunch.

Hopefully, the pits will be larger.

Allright, tomorrow makes the day. Who's ready and raring to go, and who's still struggling to get supplies together?

Another poorly updated regional.
You'd think FIRST would be able to make sure the information is available.

Re: SBP Long Island Regional

QF1
358, 271, and 870 vs. 1019, 564, and a third robot my dad couldn't see in the quarterfinal. 358 was first seed and their alliance just advanced to the semifinal. The score in the second match was 68 - 6.

QF1
417, 545, 500 vs. 533, 28, 566 in the opposite quarter final match. 417, 545, 500 advances.

QF3
1606, 102, 570 vs. 527, 287, 1635. 527, 287, 1635 wins QF3-1.

QF4
569, 270, 1803 vs. 1468, 353, 329.

SF1-1
358, 271, 870 vs. 417, 545, 500. 358, 271, 870 wins first match 71 - 50. 417, 545, 500 alliance wins second match, wherein 358 was tipped and 271 did not move. 358, 271, 870 advance to finals.

Finals:
358, 271, 870 vs. 1468, 353, 329

F1-1 goes to 358, 271, 870 with a score of 96 to 52.
F1-2 goes to 1468, 353, 329.
F1-3, 358's shooter is broken, 271 steps up and shoots ~10.

Holy crap. It's a tie. 58-58. They're getting ready to run the fourth match of the finals now.

Re: 2006 SBPLI Long Island Regional

Match 5. This is absurd.

Teams 358 and 271 switched their robot's starting position at the last moment and the referees are calling for a rematch of the fourth match in the finals.

Aside from being all powerful, what justification do the referees have in making that sort of call? Specifically, what rules are there governing the placement of the robots before a match begins? I admit to being rusty in this area.

Edit: My dad's unclear on explicitly why the rematch was called, for what it's worth, but everything seems to point to the switch.

Apparently that is an actual rule as Greg Needel had pointed out to me and he's going to be head ref in Isreal so he must know what he's talking about.

The rule is that you have to put your robot in the position that you told the queueing manager before the match. This is to prevent the sort of last-minute switching that you describe.
