Yes, 3 times at the vegas regional where they just completed a record of 36-0 (including playoffs) and 2 times at championships.

Nice field, the center goal really adds a nice touch. I hope there is never another game that uses that space, just so you can keep it there forever.

That is really tight!!!

Has anyone noticed that their regolith panels tend to pucker up where taped at all seams? And yes, we are using the recommended tape. If no problem, did you also tape the underside, use double sided tape on bottom or use other method?

We heard that putting a 1/4" gap between the pieces of material stops it from bunching up. We have three large 50' rolls so we don't have as many seams, but ours hasn't had any bunching up problems... I believe that the regulation fields will also have this gap.

this is so awesome! nice work! the center goal is a nice touch. our team hasn't really talked about making one yet but i sure hope we do so we can practice driving

I am not even going to lie right now I did not even notice the center goal the first time I looked at the picture. Lack of sleep ftw amirite?

The tape that you see on top of the panels is the only thing that is holding the panels in place. We considered using double-sided tape or velcro on the underside but decided that the tape on top of the panels would suffice. When we laid the panels down, we left hardly any gap between the panels. So far there has been little or no "bumps" in the field where two panels meet.

This photo seems photoshopped for some reason.
Maybe it's the lack of shadows for things from the odd lighting conditions, but I call (probably wrongly) shenanigans!

You know, you're right. I just went back and looked at it... and the people around the trailer are just sort of there, with no shadows or anything. They look kind of out of place. I'm pretty sure they'd have no reason to photoshop the people in, though, so I don't think it actually is photoshopped.

Yeah, you know the next thing they will try to do is put some huge metal rack in the center of the field and try and hang the balls on it....

I can see your point in thinking that it is photoshoped but I can assure you that it is not, the lighting in the building is not best.


one thing I am surprised that people did not point out our previous years robots in the picture:

2008 - Corner of the playing field
2006 - Back left corner of the building
2005 - Left side of the picture right infront of the blue crate (only can see the front of it)
