About what time should teams arrive? The only problem for us is the travel time, other than that I should expect us to be signed up soon!

We would love to see Mort return to Ramp Riot!

Opening ceremony is at 8:45 - 9:00 AM
First match goes off at 9:00 AM Sharp

The doors open at 7 AM and practice matches run from 7:15 - 8:30 AM.
We usually design the practice schedule based on travel distance, so you would be towards the end anyway. (Farther going last) But if you miss your practice it is OK. As long as we know you are on the way to the event, we will put you in the match schedule.

Hope you can make it!

Can't Wait! Ramp Riot was a blast last year and I'm sure it will be the same this year:] There are quite a few vids on youtube from it and I can't wait for this year's fun!:)

Man, Ramp Riot is always so much fun! I can't wait to show what 423 is made of!

BTW, our team name isn't SCR (is that for Springfield Cheltenham Robotics?) anymore; in fact, it never was. We're called The Simple Machines now; we actually came up with that idea during Ramp Riot 2008, which is kind of funny when you think about it.

Yes. We will most likely use the webcast system from last year. The system worked well for our first try and I am sure we will look at improvements.

[Phil Ross]

Have you guys thought about any rule changes for Ramp Riot? I am a huge fan of the changes for the Robo Showdown in TX.
