Re: 2007 Great Lakes Regional, Best Ever?

So this is the first time in about 5 years team 302 has not attended the Great Lakes Regional. Its killing me to know how the teams are doing. It looks like some insane competition this year with 33, 66, 67, 70, 201 , 279, 469, 494, and some others i cant think of off the top of my head. Please let me know and if you have footage of some matches post a link.


Thanks
Matt

Re: 2007 Great Lakes Regional, Best Ever?

Sorry if it's been asked before, but could someone tell me where I might find a webcast of the GLR? I've looked on NASA and haven't found it (the stream is blocked by my school)- is anyone else webcasting it?

Re: 2007 Great Lakes Regional, Best Ever?

Did 1114 break sometime on friday afternoon? I noticed they scored 0 points in a match (as did their opponents), and that seemed very un-1114ish of them.

Re: 2007 Great Lakes Regional, Best Ever?

I don't know about the web cast, but i know about the 1114 thing. I can't tell whether they died, or were disabled, but their robot lost mobility in the opponents home zone, thus penalizing them repeatedly. They ended up with 0 points that way.

Re: 2007 Great Lakes Regional, Best Ever?

1114 lost power and our alliance got a 30 pt penalty for being in the opposing teams home zone during the end of the match.

Re: 2007 Great Lakes Regional, Best Ever?

I don't know about Friday (wasn't there) but 1114 looked great today. A lot of teams did.

Good luck tomorrow all!!

Re: 2007 Great Lakes Regional, Best Ever?

1114's ground came out of the power distribution block, causing them to become disabled. They then e-stopped. This happened roughly 35 seconds into the match, while they were in the opponents home zone. The 30 points of penalties negated their alliances row of 4, causing a 0-0 tie.

Re: 2007 Great Lakes Regional, Best Ever?

dang! maybe we should think about going to the GLR. that does sound very good. but every year that we have been to the state of florida for a regional, it seems that we run into great teams. and we had great success at KSC before they stopped that regional after 9/11. that was a tough regional, in comparison to the GLR this year.

Someone should have thought of tossing this one to the Q & A before the regionals. I remember that in years past, if you were in an area that was not allowed and became disabled you stopped receiving penalties. If you can't move then well, you can't move...

Re: 2007 Great Lakes Regional, Best Ever?

Nope, a robot in the home zone in the endgame is a huge penalty for the alliance that has to deploy/climb on a ramp there. Without a penalty for disabled robots, it would be too easy to just ask one defensive bot to just go disable itself in the home zone right before the beginning of the end period.
Of course it is bad luck, and I am sad to hear it happened to 1114, but this rule, for one, is consistent with the emphasis first has put on ramp deployment this year.

Re: 2007 Great Lakes Regional, Best Ever?

I'm curious as to how last years rule read, but Ron Webb said last year that if you cannot make it out of the other teams zone (offense/defense stuff), that you could hit the E-STOP, thus, your robot would not be penalized for being in the wrong zone.

If I remember, I am going to ask him tomorrow about it.
