Re: Bash @ the Beach 2006!

well just back from bash about an hour or two ago and it was amazing, it was good to see a lot of teams let new drivers try out, even if it was just because they lost them last year, but besides for the time delay which cut off some matches i thought it was really good.

Re: Bash @ the Beach 2006!

The winning alliance was 1519, 173, and 1027.

However, entire thing was not run very well. They were more than 2 hours behind and had to cut the last 8 qualifying matches. They also switched to single elimination after the quarter finals because they were having field trouble and wanted to finish before the entire thing broke down. We eventually finished at around 7 pm and had a speedy award cerimony while they were tearing down the field in order to be ready for the arival of a truck at 8 pm to take the field.

Sorry we couldn't stay

Congrats to 1519, 173, and 1027. 1519 clearly had the best robot on the field during qualifications

First of all, we apologize for the time delays. Bash@theBeach is a volunteer run event and we do the best we can with what we have.

We did run into technical difficulties with the field. The whole scoring system CRASHED in the Semi-Finals...we lost everything...including control of the field. We borrowed the field from FIRST and they provided directions for the scoring system. Luckily, DEZ was there to get us back on track and at least get the single eliminations in at the end.

Overall, I would say another good day at the beach!

No need to apologize. Bash happens. Your people did a great job of adjusting all day.

Anyone have more of a comprehensive list of alliances?

The alliances were computer generated, so they probably wouldn't have turned out the same way. The only ones I remember were the winning alliance; 1519, 173, and 1027 (congrats!) and the our alliance; 1124, 190, and 500 (thanks 190 and 500- we couldn't have made it to the finals without you). I left my sheets with the alliances and my strategy notes on the bus in our rush to get everything back into the school, which is too bad.

Although I was disappointed with the way things were run (the 2-hour delay which meant cutting out qualifying matches, the field trouble which meant cutting out elimination rounds and scoring by hand), I still have to say that Bash @ the Beach was definitely worth it! I had a blast, my team had a great time, and it seems like everyone else there did, too. We went there with a main goal of training all our newcomers, and they did an amazing job. Their improvement over the course of the day was phemomenal, whether in driving, coaching, scouting, or spirit, and now everyone has experienced the atmosphere of a competition. So thanks for everything to team 236 for hosting and operating Bash! I can't imagine how much work you put into it!

I hope everyone else there had a great time like I did. (-:

Re: Bash @ the Beach 2006!

Here were the alliances; the first eight teams were the top 8 teams, and the second two picks were automatically completed by the computer. Alliance 1 is first, alliance 2 is second, and so on.

1519 - 173 - 1027
181 - 571 - 839
228 - 2067 - 1740
176 - 195 - 1099
716 - 121 - 1511
1124 - 500 - 190
809 - 1784 - 230
237 - 341 - 238

1519, 181, and 228 were all tied with a 5-1 record in the qualification rounds. I may also have the match results from every match, but I wouldn't know for sure until Wednesday if we still have them. (My mother recorded all the match results while cheering on all the teams, but I believe the paper is in with all the team's supplies at the high school.)

Overall, I was pleased with Bash at the Beach this year. Except for the field malfunctions, the event was fun as always. For many of the new members on 228, this was their first FIRST competition and they loved it. Thanks to the Dominion teams for hosting this event!

Hopefully later this week I will post a photo gallery and videos from the event onto my team's website.
