Re: 3 regionals in one year.

just my 2 cents, but wouldn't winning the championship event count for something?
I'd think that winning the championship would count as 2, 1 for the division and 1 for overall, any thoughts?

Also, would off-season events count as well? IRI has to be at least as tough as any other regional...

Re: 3 regionals in one year.

1114/2056 won IRI together too, for argument's sake... and theres not a shadow of a doubt in my mind that 2056 would rapidly add themselves to this list if they attend 3 regionals next year.

They are a great team, and I wish my FIRST career started out like theirs. If you actually look closely at what they have accomplished, it's an amazing feat in it self. They have not walked away from a competition with anything less then a GOLD! Well done 2056.

Re: 3 regionals in one year.

I've watched 1114 and 1024 on the Midwest Regional webcast and have seen 1024 in person at the Boilermaker Regional. Both robots are amazing with incredible combinations of arm innovation and speed. I'd hate to see them on the opposing side in Atlanta....

Re: 3 regionals in one year.

The Blue Alliance makes it pretty easy to see who has one 3, 2, or 1 regional this year (well, of the teams going to championship), on the championship divisions page: http://www.thebluealliance.net/champ.../divisions.php

will someone ever win 4 ???
If 1114 competed in 4 they would win 4. If they competed every week i'm sure they could win 6.

Have the previous team to win three, won Atlanta afterwards?

No, no one has ever won three and the Championship. Team 47 did it in the nonalliance era, they were double teamed at Championship and lost. Team 1114 was picked by team 70 and they rounded out their alliance with 48, they then lost in the finals on the Curie division, due to some crazy bad luck. Team 1503 was picked by 987 and they rounded out their alliance with 1718, they were knocked out in the Semi-Finals by the amazing 25-968-195 alliance.

As for teams that could have won three regionals in the same year, in 2006 25 played in two regionals and swept the field not losing a match until championship, they would have certainly won a third regional (Instead they won the Newton Division and lost in the finals to 296-217-522). Team 245 won two regionals and made it to the finals in another in 2005, they beat some of the best teams and won the Archimedes division with 217. I am shocked that 217 couldn't pull it off this year, another team to do the 2 win one finalist thing, they will probably win a division this year.

We will see if 1114 or 1024 can break the streak of winning three regionals and not winning championship. I think that 1114 will always have a shot to win three regionals every year, and that the 1114-2056 will win together for the next few years.
