Re: Most Exciting Regional.
Of the competitions I attended (LA, SVR, Vegas) and watched online, I thought Vegas was the most exciting.
However, I didn't get to see any of the others that people have been mentioning as being really exciting (GTR, WMR, etc). |

Re: Most Exciting Regional.
Between what I've seen in real life and online, I'd say West Michigan had the most exciting finals matches, and Detroit had the most.. intense? Not sure what word to use.. there was soo muuchh defense played, it was almost painful to watch haha. I heard GLR was good too, but I didn't get to see it.

Re: Most Exciting Regional.
Philadelphia.
The place is way too crowded with robots and teams. It's exceedingly hot, and sweat covers everything. The building rocks from the noise of some of the loudest teams in FIRST (with Wayne Penn doing nothing to discourage it) The teams are old, wise, and have tricks up their sleeves. The competition is rough, violent, and visceral. In short, it's everything that I love from a FIRST event. |

Re: Most Exciting Regional.
Yeah... plus the #1 seed alliance (1000, 648, 447) played a total of 12 elimination matches. Three quarterfinal matches, four semifinal matches, and five final matches. Definitely the most exciting regional I went to... heh.

Re: Most Exciting Regional.
My personal favorite was Boilermaker, what with all the great teams like techno-kats and 1501 being upset in the first round and many matches coming down to whether or not a robot will be lifted or get up a ramp. The final match (with it tied 1-1) came down to whether or not (sorry if i missed the team #'s) 1023 could get up 461's ramp, while no ringers were scored and 1555 lifted 234 and 1730 up for 2 15 point bonuses.
Though I know for a fact that I have a biased opinion ![]() |

Re: Most Exciting Regional.
I've only attended 3...but NJ was personally my favorite.
We had a Hawaiian team and Canadian Team, and awesome MC...AND a conga line that wrapped around the field not once, but twice! We danced, the hula, did the hokey pokey, and the teams were amazing! Not to mention our mascot pit. |

Re: Most Exciting Regional.
West Michigan, of all the ones I went to this year. Plus, we won, so I'm kinda biased.
It was truly an amazing regional. The eliminations were intense; I felt that any of the alliances could have been the one to win. Even 494 was around for the 2nd round of picking. That should tell you something about the caliber of the robots at that regional. |

Re: Most Exciting Regional.
I would have to say Davis in the first round of quarter finals the #1 vs #8 went to FIVE ROUNDS. in match 1 two of the bots team 100 and 997 tipped over the crowed went balistic. second round 100 997 and 1458 pull off the win. round three intense match ends in a tie. round 4 they messure #8 alliances ramps first and one robot is short and gets 15 points. you think its all over then all of a sudden #1 allaince is short TOO! the crowd goes insane. round 5 #8 alliance ramp bot's ramps fall down and it goes south from there but I think if that didnt happen it could have easily gone to 6 matches at the least. It would have made for a very intense final.
then a semi final round went to the third round. one alliance got both bots on the ramps last second to squeak out a win the crowd jumps in the stands. match ends and the ramps fall down and the other alliance wins and the whole arena becomes practicaly defining from the roars. by far the best regional I have ever been too. |
