Yay for meeting people on CD in person!

I'll put it up tommorow or Sunday, I just need time to relax for now.

Arizona was awesome! Congratulations to teams 39, 60, and 1013! It was fun to go against you guys in the finals, and I think you definately deserved the win. It was great to see team 60 get their robot up and running on the last day to become the first pick for alliances.

I think our team did extremely well and learned a lot about the game this year. Watch out Davis, expect to see an even faster and more reliable scorer coming to your regional.

For what it is worth...you were our first choice until the next to last qualifying match. You are a "CLASS ACT" from robot to students to mentors! Thank you for the kind words about our robot. Luck was on our side yesterday. I worried most about facing you guys.

I don't think...I know...your robot did extremely well in Phoenix. You will do well in Davis.

Hey ya everyone did a good job....i know my team 1212 was hoping for a win but ehh well we try again next year

Mr Forbes,

I just checked the records. You beat us in our next to last qualifying match and once in the finals. That means we both beat each other twice. That makes us both even. Keep up the good work and come back to Arizona next year.

I have to say this is the best Arizona Regional I've been to yet (and I'm not just saying that because I won Steve Sanghi, though that certainly helped make it good).

I got to meet alot of people from CD there; thank you for the picture Jim, and for leading Fredi to find me (I heard you originally mistook my brother for me). Sorry I didn't get to meet you Ken, but I at least saw who you were this year, and congrats on the Teacher of the Year Award.

Thank you to our alliance partners 2134 and 1343; it was a good shot at the 3rd alliance, and who knows how the 3rd match would have played out without that penalty. And nice work 842, 1726, and 1492; when I first saw who we were against, I wasn't sure we'd even have a chance against you guys.

Congrats to 39, 60, and 1013 for winning the regional and bringing back Team Gila for a few hours at least, and to 842 for a 3rd straight Chairman's Victory; maybe this will be your year in Atlanta? I'd also like to say I'm extremely impressed with 1401 from Mexico this year, their robot and team look like a completely different group this year, and I can't not love anybody that scores in autonomous.

I know we'll see some of you in Atlanta this year, and those of you who qualified maybe we'll see you too (39? 1013? 2134?). It was a great Regional!

Yeah he did at first, but I'm used to that happening. A LOT!!!! And congrats with Steve Sanghi.

Man there were some good teams this year......I am so glad to be a part of the Arizona regional every year.......And you winning teams, wow...you guys had some nice clean robots..and some cool ways of doing things

[falconmaster]

Yes it was a great Regional! Mexico is getting much better!! It was very rewarding seeing South Mountain, Corona DelSol, Buena Vista (NERDS),and Mexico get awards. Working with them has been very fun. Buena should probably mentor us next year! We hope to be able to do more for Chinlee and Alchesea next year. Being isolated like they are makes it much harder. But we will work on it. 39, 60 and 1013 we thought we had you! Oh well, we gave it our best shot! Maybe next year. Maybe we will be on the same alliance. 1492 and 1726, it was an honor and I would love to continue partnering in the future! We took it down to the wire!! Couldn't get more exciting than that! We hope we get the Chairman's to an AZ team this year. Good luck in the rest of the season and see those of you who make it to nationals in Atlanta!!!!

We go to San Diego next, only taking the girls, let them see what its like to do all the "jobs" Nice to not have Chairman's hanging over us.

We go to Vegas after with the 4 man team we hope to finalize with including final robot designs modifications and programming.

If any one else is going to SD or LV be sure to say hi!! Maybe we can make it to finals together!!

Hey we still need more teams in the National Underwater Robotics Challenge we are hosting with Chandler HS in June, check out www.h2orobots.org, we will help you anyway we can, our knowledge is your knowledge! 480-266-9929 if you want more info.

I wanted to offer congrats to 39, 60, and 1013. You guys were great! Thank you for a great finals. I want to thank 842 and 1492 for the awesome alliance. Congrats to Ken Loyd of 39 for the AZ teacher of the year and Ian Lau for the volunteer of the year. We are looking forward to next year's AZ regional. Congrats all!
