Re: 2007 San Diego Regional

The regional was amazing.

368; you were a great scorer and lead us to the finals.
1717; There isn't a better lifter out there.

For anyone watching; We shredded our treads in our first quarter final due to improper attachment (my fault). Since our arm broke in the second quarter final, we were were forced to play defense... Quite a dilemna as we now had six smooth aluminum wheels. 1717's coach had the idea to put zipties on our center wheel for traction. Using zipties as tread, we were still able to play amazing defense on 968, and 330 (we even beat their undefeated alliance once).

Thanks everyone, it was an awesome event.

Re: 2007 San Diego Regional

I second Ross' thanks... Although we are disappointed not to go to nationals and showcase our design, all the compliments are amazing. Its very nice to know that our efforts were recognized.

I would like to thank you (as well as all the refs) for some very well called matches - you guys (and girls ) were awesome. Thank you.

Big shout out to teams 368 (kikamana) and 294 (beach cities), you guys were amazing. I could never ask for better teammates. Killer offense 368, and incredible defense (even when your arm broke) 294. Thank you guys so much...

Re: 2007 San Diego Regional

Thanks to 696, 835, and 1216 for helping us out! We couldn't have done it without you guys!
To 1717, 368, and 294: You guys formed an amazing alliance with some great strategy; it was an honor to compete on the same field as three great teams like yourselves.

San Diego was such an amazing regional, I think 330 will be back next year! Thanks to all the refs and volunteers who made it possible.

Re: 2007 San Diego Regional

Hi All,

First I would like to apologize for our late response regarding the San Diego regional. Our team just returned home on Monday after being on the road for almost two weeks.

San Diego was a blast! We had so much fun and it was an honor competing with and against some of the best teams.

A Belated congratulations to 330, 696, 835 and 1216. You guys played smart and were just unstopable. Your teams are a class act and while we would have liked to have won, it wasn't so bad finishing second to you. One request though. Please Please Please win the Championships. That way, I can say that only the best beat us!

Team 1717 your lift was just plain amazing. We couldn't believe we were fortunate enough to have you in our alliance. I need to ask you about that PVC foam composite you used. I found your team very well prepared and organized for only a 2nd year team.

Team 294, you guys were the energizer bunnys or if anyone is old enough to remember the timex commercials ("It takes a licking and keeps on ticking"). I couldn't believe the damage you were sustaining, yet were still able to effectively play the game. To not have treads and to have your arm totally disabled by the end of the quarterfinals and still make it to the finals is a feat in itself.

I just want to let you both know that we couldn't have asked for a better alliance. I think both of your teams were outstanding. We are just a bit dissapointed that we could not come through for you guys in the end and to give you a chance to showcase your stuff at the Championships.

Just for your info, I burned the video feed of nearly every match including the finals. If you want a copy, don't hesitate to contact me.

I completely agree about our alliance being great, and that the winners from SD need to put on a good show at the championships.

Alan,
How can I answer any questions you have about our panel/foam?

We took video of most of the matches too. After I look through it if there's anything missing or I'd like to see I'll let you know.

Re: 2007 San Diego Regional

I'm also free to answer any and alkl questions abou the composition of and theory behind our panels. We also have plenty of pictures of the process we used to create them.

As for that video, like Ross said before me, we also have video but then again you can never have too much So we'll contact you and we can exchange what footage you have.

Thanks for making an awesome alliance partner, you guys really held your own against two awesome arm-bots out there, and to tell you the truth, we were incredibly pleased when we became your alliance partner - we knew we had a solid team - you guys have a killer robot.

Ps. Awesome brakes and autonomous!
