2008 New Jersey Regional

[abeD]

webcast is coming in pretty good, no delays or anything, amazing.


To bad this midterm in 10 minutes is going to ruin the fun.

I did realize though everytime they change the score it goes to a green screen. edit: sometimes it does not always. strange.

3 matches so far...I know it's just practice but WOW no one's broken 30 pts

[Engineer]

Looks like Santa came after all. LOL

[Tottanka]

haven't seen a single hurdle yet.

though all practice matches are full with teams, unlike previous years.

From what I've seen most of the teams shown so far are high high number teams (lowest maybe a 1600), so it's not unexpected in my book. No 75 yet with their arm vs. 25 with their shooter... thing.... lifter.... elevator... stuff.

Hmm, remind me again...balls have to be removed from the overpass to be considered in play, therefore if a ball never left the overpass it doesn't count for the endgame correct?

it does.
just saw an hybrid for 16 total points by an alliance, 12 of them by a single team....niiiice

1511 looks fairly quick. Not too much action right now.

Note: 1811 (1611? 1511?), by plowing thru traffic, was able to do 4 laps in 60 seconds...not too shabby

[Tottanka]

seems to me like teams are having some hard time removing the trackballs.
The winner has for now been always decided by balls left on the overpass in the end of the game...

[Bongle]

There were some fast robots in that last match, and the fastest one (sorry, can't see team #s) also appeared to clothesline itself in the overpass.
