Rumor has it that John Darr will be back to Announce, and I think from what I know Karthik is going to take Steve's place as MC at the regional (only reason I know is Steve suggested Eric, but I think the FLRPC was able to get Karthik so Eric was asked as backup).

Yeah...John Darr and Karthik would make an epic combo. I have yet to see him MC live. That would be a treat.

Not if you have to be next to him the entire regional.

Hold up, I have to be next to you for the entire regional? This was definitely not part of the deal...

I'm looking forward to being the MC for the 5th annual Finger Lakes Regional. I've attended the event in the past as a spectator and have always been impressed by the level of spirit in the building. I hoping I can kick the intensity up to a new level, and help continue the local traditions of the event. See you all in a few days.

He fills Steve's shoes to the full extent! Oh, I am getting so excited.

A rolled up newspaper (or a clipboard) across the nose is an effective method of control for Alex.
Or just get Liz. I'm sure he's still paying for what he did to her at Ruckus so I bet he wants to cross her as little as possible.

I seconded Steve's recommendation for Eric to the FLRPC. It will be sweet having Karthik down there though. It just doesn’t sound right without that crazy Canadian accent. Eh.

One of our mentors got an email from one of the teams up there and it said that they weren't going to be holding a team social. All of our team are sad about that. We always had the most fun at the team social.

Well there's no official FLR Webcast this year again due to lack of resources but I'll definitley be archiving the stuff or if I can find some alternatives I will try.

So the NY BR Trophy history:
Created by 578 in 2003 :1126 2003 -> 340 2004 -> 229 2005 -> 378 2006 -> 1450 2007 -> 191 2008 -> ??? 2009

There was someone from NH that wanted to do the webcasting. The cup years and teams sound about right.

I was really hoping FLR would be webcast this year.

Good luck to everyone, especially our friends on MAK 211. Wish it was possible to package & send some Florida sunshine your way; hopefully the weather is better this year than it was for 2008.
