That is no where as comparable to week 1 regionals. Check your stats. One of the upper FIRST personnel was very happy with how the entire staff handled the situations and how the event ran. He actually said the word Impressive numerous times. Was even more so impressed when he learned that the entire crew was recent FIRST Alumni.

I agree with Alex on this one. All competition long we had very few problems on the field and most of the time they were code errors or low power issues. We also had numerous matches where the wireless gaming adapters were not plugged in or plugged into the wrong ports. The real only problems we had in the end was a bad e-stop switch and the audience screen froze. Other than that I also heard an upper FIRST personnel member say how well our event was ran and was very happy how the volunteers took care of situations! I also heard from numerous amounts of people that our event was ran very well. We are only a week 2 regional so there still will be problems but I think we did a very good job at overcoming those obstacles. All the volunteers gave 100% and I just wanted to congratulate Liz and Peter on another successful regional! You guys did a great job. For more information on the event go to the link below! A lot of information has been getting clarified up!

That's what happens when you put a robotics regional in Rochester.

Hi Jeremy

I heard about this and it seems very strange to me, if there's anything you can send me in a PM that might be able to describe the surrounding circumstances more I'd appreciate it. FMS 2.0 2009 is 140K lines of new code, still have to find the quirks
