Where might we find the webcast? I couldn't find any info on the WildStang site. Sorry if it's there, but I didn't try hard enough to find it.

From the email that was just sent out

Webcast:
Thanks to team 111, Wildstang, there will be a webcast. See here: http://live.wildstang.org/iri.php. People have asked if it will be archived. I don't know that answer at this time.

Andy had it in his post, but you probably missed it since this thread is so long.

It will be at:
http://live.wildstang.org/iri.php

Note that the link that Michelle provided is wrong - that is simply the page that you get redirected to right now since the webcast is not active.

Well, crap. Michelle just posted what I sent to a slew of people who are coming... and I got the link wrong in that note. So, that wasn't her fault.

So, that last email wasn't actually the "last".

FYI ... for anyone interested ...

Segway of Indiana just started a new tour through White River State Park and along the canal. NICE scenic tour ... and on Segways! Details and contact info on their website - www.segwayofindiana.com

Most 254/968 members will be arriving at around 7 am on Thursday, and we'll have the entire day free. Ideally we'd do something more exciting than sitting around the hotel

I think there is a group of TechnoKats who are going to the Indians game (AAA baseball team) tomorrow night. The game starts at 7:00. Victory field is immediately west of downtown Indy.

I just checked the Indians web site, and it looks like group discounts are available if you have 25 or more. Maybe a few teams could join forces to get the discount? Normal rate is $13 for box seats and $9 for reserved; the group discount gets $2 off either rate. When I checked a minute ago there were still lots of box seats available.

just saw some info on the matches. seems some teams get a 9th match that doesn't count toward standings.i really hope nobody's robot breaks during that match. ouch!

If anyone wants a 25 foot tether cable (to keep), I'll have one or two with me. $12. Just stop by 968's pit and ask for Dave.

Team 1577 is finally in Indianapolis after an overnight stay in Rome and a stop in NY. Tomorrow we have to release our robot from customs, and then we're free for the day...
