Some questions to ask ... what will 123 do if they make it into the finals as a selection will they bow-out or play (since this is their 3rd event)?

Expect to see 67, 245, and 70 in the finals, will 2 of the 3 be on the same alliance?

Can't wait.

Correction to this for team 1502 - one event (Buckeye) - Quarter Finals - Captain 4


I'm sitting here at this regional after someone had just falsely pulled the fire alarm - WOOPS! haha.

We also got to see Dean Kamen in person! It was AWESOME!

Events out of state do not earn points toward your MI ranking.

Oh woops, I didn't see that that was MI rating - assumed it was overall. My bad.

[Raumiester2010]

oh so that was a false alarm? we wouldn't have even noticed the alarms going off if the announcer hadn't yelled at us to get out...

the venue is quite nice (other than the food prices) that's why our team brown bagged it out in our big truck.

It was amazing to get to meet Dean but i personally felt sorry for him. we mobbed him every five seconds and interrupted his conversations with frantic "WILL YOU SIGN MY SHIRT?!?!?!?" (not going to lie but i got my jumpsuit signed but i didn't (to the best of my knowledge) interrupt anything and if i had, i would like to apologize), i understand how starstruck we can get but it was getting a little crazy out there. So, sorry Dean for messing with your viewing the competition.

Other than that, things have gone off with ought a hitch. things have been boring in pits because nothing is breaking mechanically(knock on wood), we are just tweaking programing (not my problem ).

if anyone needs any help, please ask anyone from our team, if we can help you we will do our best to do so.

see you tomorrow! good luck in the elims

The only prices that I've found to be a little silly are the vending machines - $2 for a 20oz bottle? Eh, a little high. At the concession you can get a 32ish cup for $2.75 which I thought was decently reasonable considering how much you got. Its a lot cheaper to some of the other venues we've been to.
Overall it is pretty nice though, seems slightly more organized too.

yeah over priced pop kinda killed the action, i think moutain dew would have really helped with the cheering it seemed kinda weak.

Either way congratz to team 66, 68 and 858

[sdcantrell56]

You mean 67.

IMO 67 is the best team I have seen so far this year. Congratulations!!

Yea I agree... The pop machines wouldn't even take a $5 bill! grr Pop was expensive, but overall, I feel that it was a great match. Great Job to EVERYONE. congrats to the winner. Just a tip, 67 not 66. haha

[powerkane]
