[astephen68]

This is going to be a great championship this year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am wondering which teams qualified for atlanta through this weird selection this year

[Diriye]

Team 188 will be sending a team down for the first time this year!

On a side note, when will we know which division (Edison or Franklin) we'll be competing in?

Good Job going down to Atlanta this year. Congrats on defeating us in Ontario, you guys have a great team and an amazing robots.

I think the announcement of the division will properly be announced after the last weekend of the FRC competitions which is after the New York Regional

Wow I honestly did not expect blizzard to go for FTC, but your bot definitely will do very well. It is one of the most consistantly good bots I've seen in FTC this year.

On a side note, it seems Canada will have a large number of teams representing it this year.

Canadians teams going:

189 Blizzard
339 Simbotics
478 Mustang Robotics
(maybe) 225
721 TBA
722 Vexagon
one other vancouver team I believe

Who wants to bet at least one Canadian team takes the world championship.

Yes, there will be two Vancouver teams from Gladstone Secondary making the trip. They took both the BC Regional, then partnered up with another Vancouver (ok... Burnaby) team to take the Washington State regional. A fourth Vancouver team was a regional finalist in Seattle, too... there was lots of hardware to declare at the border on the bus back from that trip.

Nice all over canada their are teams going and i predict that it's going to be a great championship because of all the teams that have the same idea and their robots are almost the same

I'm really, really hoping that you all make it for the May 10 Washington RoboFest. Nothing would make our teams happier than another shot at the teams from BC. Come on down! I'll even buy the pizza.

121 is sending down 655.
yay

I'm eagerly looking forward to seeing all the teams on Edison and Franklin in just a few short weeks! Our volunteers are placed and ready to go - it's going to be an amazing experience for everyone!
