2008 New York City Regional

[Zultraranger]

Javitz convention center is dirty. MLG New York Playoffs were there.

Not really. Its actually a really nice and clean venue. But hey, I'm comparing it to other places like my high school

hey im from team 640 and we are looking to make it one of the best ever.

For those who want to see it but cant theres a website that posts up all the matches. Once i get it ill be sure to post it up ans i also plan on recording some matches so they will be up!

Will there be a large area in the back to play epic games of ultimate in? That place was awesome. There is too much time between the NJ regional and this one. I'm looking forward to this year because I will actually be participating instead of just being an extra guy.

You know the more I read this thread the more I regret planning my vacation during this week .

I made a promise to myself to never miss the regional but I guess I have to break that promise.

The real question is; is do we know for sure if this Regional will be webcasted? cause I would like to watch it while I'm away.

Oh no, how can you miss the NYC Regional?
But you can watch us on the webcast! This year we may try the roving camera in the pits so watch your backs, there maybe a camera behind you.

And yes, there is room for Utimate in the Javits.

Presently we are planning for DDR competition and maybe Guitar Hero during the Friday Social.

We are also asking all teams attending the NYC Regional to create Team Posters to decorate the venue. The theme "This is Our Story...."
There will be a judging for the best "Story."
More details will be sent to the teams.

There is also a Tri-State FLL Competition on Sunday morning, volunteers are still needed. We need experience FLL people!!!!

If I can find a way to get up there to New York I will deffinately be there. Me and Dustin(thefro) might come up for either Friday or Saturday. But best of luck to all teams that will be there participating.

[arhajder]

You can watch the matches on thebluealliance.net if the regional made any videos. Jersey was pretty good but alot of other regionals could have had more videos!

For the NYC Regional on Week 6:

The best place to view the link will be here since it will also list an archive of the matches and is the smallest url to remember.
http://www.soap108.com/

An alternative is
http://robotics.arc.nasa.gov/events/...s.php#webcasts
The links will be available Saturday morning.

since we are the only regional for week 6, all eyes on us... no pressure

ONLY 100!
I'll trade you a couple of trackballs and a couple of NYC teams?
We have lots of NYC Teams for you to take home: There will be 64 FRC teams, 60 FTC teams, and 60 FLL teams under the same Javits roof!


Oh, forgetaboutit!
The fake "Disco Dave" buttons with show up at the Canal St. stores by the end of the today.
They'll be right next to the real ROLEX watches for $10.
