Most Amazing Streak

[1359th Scalawag]

Does Imagery count?

2004: OR Imagery
2005: SJ Imagery
2006: OR Imagery

We've had imagery every year since our team started (2004) I'd like to hear of some other teams with continuing Imagery.
Anybody know a team with a 4 or more year streak with the Imagery award?

236 - 5 straight chairmans at UTC thanks to 2007!!!! (I think its time they win Nationals ;-) )

Team 365:
2001 NJ Imagery
2002 VA Imagery
2003 PA Imagery
2004 CMP Imagery

Hope your streak ends like ours

Now to the streak that inspired this thread. I don't think 254's streak of winning the same regional 8 years in a row will ever be broken. FIRST has grown tremendously and the parity between teams has increased. This makes any year-to-year streak difficult. Plus the 3v3 alliance format and certain game makes it difficult for one robot (no matter how amazing) to dominate the competition.

The Poofs still have that amazing Regional Championship per year streak to continue. I'm sure that will keep everyone glued to webcasts next year.

114 is definitly on a AVA streak

-2006
-AVA winner at Portland
-AVA winner at SVR
-AVA winnre at Davis
-Honorable mention at nationals

-2007
-AVA winner at SVR

I think they have won even more, but I don't know.

Team 111 (Wildstang):

Midwest winners: 2000, 2001, 2005, 2006, 2007
Midwest finalists: 2002

By any measure, that's atleast three years in a row.

How about Team 67's streak of Regional wins, I think its a combination of GLR and Buckeye:

2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and judging by their robot a WMR victory in 2007 is a very realistic possibility.

Not to mention their Chairman's and Judges awards year after year.

One streak that was mentioned to me a week ago: 1902 has made the elimination rounds at every single event they've ever attended. That'd be Florida 2006 (finalist), Lone Star 2006 (semifinalist), Archimedes 2006 (finalist), Mission Mayhem 2006 (semifinalist) if you want to count the off-season, and now Florida 2007 (finalist). Not too shabby.

That's a start. But how about 254? This 2007 quarter-final exit was their earliest ever. They have only been stopped short of the finals twice (2002 Buckeye Semis, 2007 SVR Quarters) at a regional. They have made the elimination rounds at all 17 of their regionals, and all 8 of their nationals/championship events. I didn't include this on the streak list because FIRST does not provide a definitive way to check this streak among all teams, and I'm sure some other teams (say 67, 71, 111, 233, 1114, etc.) have accomplished this as well, but there is no precise way to guarantee it (and with the "Events Attended" section gone, figure out how long that streak is).

537's four straight regional victories at 3 different events. (2004-STL, 2005-Midwest, 2006-STL, 2007- Wisconsin).

The first time 67 didn't make the elimination rounds was on Galileo last year in Atlanta, meaning HOT went at least 10 years making ever single elimination tournament. 1902's got a long way to go.

(Of course, they've begun their streak in a completely different era of FIRST, so their out of the starting gate record is a bit more impressive.)

Well this one is the shortest streak here, at only 2. But I think 191 should be on here since they're the only ones to ever win Championship Chairman's twice in a row.

They didn't win twice in a row. They won in 1992 and 1994.

ok well our streaks are like this:
all this in midwest regional in 2007
most points in pentlies (70 points)
most times scoring in autonmous 3 matches in a row (5 times in all)
only one to score in autonomous mode
5 matches in finals (first two we tied, 3rd- 648, 447, 1000 won, 4th/5th- the other alliances won)
i think thats it (can't remember it all b/c it happened so fast)

[waialua359]

how about making a regional finals in every regional we attended except a quarterfinals lost to team 25 and co. once. That's 6 out of 7.
Elimination rounds every regional we attended and an award(s) in all of them also......hehehe....
AND possibly spending the MOST in travel costs since coming all the way from Hawaii.
This year alone if we attend Championships also, close to $80,000 just for 20-25 people per trip and two regionals.
BUT, at least we can bring the "house" as other teams do when we participate in the Hawaii one next year.
