Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
it's not called the indiana robotics "invitational" for nothing...i would expect there to be some sort of review process in order for teams to be let in.

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
I'm curious if there is any special preference to A) teams who places well at regionals and B) teams who only attended regional(s) and not ATL. I know my team placed very well (2 finalist trophies) but did not qualify for Championships, so we would love to go to an off season event to show our stuff. I can imagine there are a few other teams in this boat. Regardless, I'm still going to push for us to apply.

Also, if our team is not accepted, how do I go about volunteering. I might be able to sneak off and volunteer (and bring some help). Last edited by KTorak : 18-04-2007 at 00:21. |

Team 701 is tossing around the idea for a possible IRI trip if invited. Cal Games for sure. We still have something to prove after SF's at Bayou & Finals at Davis. Last edited by Doug G : 18-04-2007 at 00:21. Reason: grammar |

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
The HOT team is planning on registering as soon as it opens.
Although, we have not had the success we intended this season (ie; regional wins), I hope the selection committee intends to looks at other on field performances. Hopefully, this thread doesn't turn into a "look what we did" thread. |

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
Hm.. a review process you say? Will you be posting the criteria pre-application or will teams be reviewed "discreetly"* as they sign-up?
*Probably used the wrong word... |

So, assuming there will be a few 2008 Indiana rookies who come to IRI to jump start their first season, there will probably be less that 40 spots available for out-of-state invitees. Whatever selection criteria the IRI leadership chooses to apply -- and I don't envy anyone the job of figuring that out -- I for one hope they don't post those criteria here. As Chris reminded us in an earlier post, any out-of-state team that is unhappy about the limited number of spots at IRI is free to start their own off-season event. Maybe someday we'll have an MRI (uh, wait, that doesn't sound right.) |

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
Looks like the IRI guys are going to have a tough time with registration this year. I'm glad I'm not them. As I told Andy, I'm starting to save for the trip now. I know a lot of the kids on 1089 really want to make the trip. It took 5 years, but I finally planted the seed ~__^
Hopefully you'll get to see another side of New Jersey. |

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
Just curious, but do returning champions get automatic spots?
1625 is planning on being there either way |

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
I can't wait! I've not been there since two years ago as a VEX competitor! Now as a freshman with an FRC team, it will be even better!

the website is locked until it is fully loaded and ready to go. we were OK until we passed out the url in atl and then people knew where it was! volunteer signup will be on the IRI website. regarding selection, lots of factors come into play. performance, history with the iri, area of the country representing, contributions to the program, color of jerseys , how often you mention the awesomeness of the planning committee in your posts (just kidding ). And, we will not post the criteria... |

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
I'm not going to be able to make it this year. Study abroad in Mexico returning to the US July 22nd. I was really hoping to get a chance to pick an organizers brain for the VCU offseason I want to start.
Have fun and good luck everyone! Wetzel |

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
Team 1114 is definitely planning on applying to come to IRI. Hopefully the singing abilities of certain mentors won't be held against us...

Re: 2007 Indiana Robotics Invitational
Team 107 plans to apply for this year's IRI. We had a blast last year!
The IRI is run as well as if not better than some regionals we have attended in the past. Is there a written history of the IRI? How did it get started? Who has the answers? |
