Having to go all the way past the seats and turn back toward the entrance to go down the steps just added insult to injury.

It's much nicer to be on the field right by the entrance corner, with no extra change in direction required to reach a good place to sit.

The UberBots are on Galileo! It looks like it will be a fun (but challenging) field. I can see some awesome alliances being formed.

You can always find 359 in one of the hardest divisions.
We always seem to be in the same division as 71, 111, and 179 year after year.
Find the pattern in that and you solved this algorithm.

[Nick Orlando]

I am pumped and ready to go, look at all these great teams

[Akash Rastogi]

Finally a year all the divisions are pretty much stacked.

NJ looks VERY well represented....11, 25, 56, 1676, 1923...Oh my.

So...can we get a little description of all bots attending? Me first

MORT Team 11
Pneumatic Dumper
NJ 4th Overall Selection- Semifinalist
Philly 4th Overall Selection- Quarterfinalist, 7th seed

Obviously Philly we upped our game.

Please post up a little about your robot!
Any possible alliance come to mind?

Woot Team Hammond! Can't wait to play with you guys again!! ^_^

[Zyik]

Well this is going to be interesting...

Does this mean I can't wear my Team 67 Jacket?

[Akash Rastogi]

Man....I just ran my eyes through the list again.

Uhhhhh can you say STACKED! This should be the best Championship yet.

[Metalcrafters]

As always the competition looks tough. It's been a while since we have been in anything but Newton. It's been a tough but great year, so don't hold back. We are ready to have fun...

Man I didn't even see you there! My bad. And there's a rookie joining us too! Cool.

Me thinks the Championship Chairman's winner will be from Galileo
