Re: 2009 PARC XII! Pennsylvania Robot Challenge

Quick question: Will there be concessions available regardless of the outcome on the BBQ chicken sale? Thanks!

Re: 2009 PARC XII! Pennsylvania Robot Challenge

Speaking of the chicken BBQ stand...everything is finalized. The BBQ includes 1/2 chicken, mac salad, desrt, and drink for $8.

Unfortunately the Tech & College Fair is not going to get done for this year. We had a tough time getting responses from colleges. We will work harder on the tech fair for next year.

The planetarium will be open for 15 minute presentations about the moon.

Students from the CAD class are working on their mini golf course as I type.

PARC is approaching fast please encourage other teams to sign up

Re: 2009 PARC XII! Pennsylvania Robot Challenge

I just found out I can't go to PARC. I was really looking forward to it but I just found out that it's the same day as my SkillsUSA competition and I can't let my partner down.

Sounds tasty, but half a chicken seems like a lot. How many people is one supposed to feed? (Sorry I'm so concerned with food, just trying to keep my team fed. I do really like robots though!)

We still need more teams to register, 14 slots & 15 days to go.

PARC is a wonderful event, you won't regret coming, and if you don't come your missing out.

Re: 2009 PARC XII! Pennsylvania Robot Challenge

Updates.......we will be using the most up to date software first is supplying us. Right now it is FMS lite which is very Lite. We will have a running field, but there will be no real time scoring and we are working on the ranking system and such. With that said we will not be following G14. There will be no penalty for doubling or tripling your opponents' score.

Also since there are only 15 teams we are going to run with the pits inside our gym because there will only ever be 3 robots in the pits at once.

Another thing we were kicking around is a twist on the game.....of randomly placing a supercell on the field before the start of auto mode. The super cell would be there for anyone's taking. Let me know what you all think on this one....this is not final until we get some input from the teams attending.

We start setting up and testing tonight. The CAD room is currently full of cardboard miniature golf pieces.

Thanks to the teams who have registered. We understand this is a tough time of the year. We are looking for suggestions for a better time of year to host PARC. We are almost certain that PARC will not be the Saturday before Mother's Day next year based solely on attendance. Help us out, make suggestions to make PARC better all around.

We like the idea of putting a supercell (or two) on the field. As a matter of fact that is what we are doing at our invitational. I would understand if you do not do this but our team would be in favor of the idea. The only concern is when it gets announced. Being a team that is coming from CT to PA we would not be able to adjust our autonomous for this if the position of the supercell is known. I do not want to sound like a whiner but I just want to make sure everyone can compete on equal grounds.
