2009 IRI- Who has applied?

[Jetweb]

I want to see the Florida teams form an alliance.

1649, 79, 179, 1902 now that would be fun

[EricH]

Let's see if CA forms an alliance. 254, 330, 399, 980, two of whom have previous IRI championships.

[Akash Rastogi]

My choice of NJ/PA alliance:

222, 2753, 1923

[Chris is me]

I could see 1714 / 2970 / 2826 / 1675 happening. A fairly flexible alliance with a superscorer in 2970, a consistent all around player in 2826, and a quick multiple-dump turret with defensive support in 1714, with backup from what I predict will be the best defense at the event. All Wisconsin winners... just none that won _in_ Wisconsin. Leave that to Fondy Fire.

While we didn't average 24 balls plus in Atlanta like we did in Minnesota, I'm looking for ways to change that. Intake changes, better utilization of the empty cell, adopting some Michigan strategy is the name of the game for us. Gotta figure out a niche for us among the sea of power dumpers and nimble turreted shooters

One hopes the match scheduling process results in a balanced distribution of the "great" teams so every team in attendance gets to play both with and against them, with no bias one way or the other.

Awesome, thanks! I looked around but couldn't find it.

[OZ_341]

This message is for any mentors, volunteers, or chaperoned students that may be traveling to IRI from Eastern PA, NJ, NY, MD or DE.

Teams 341 and 365 are sharing a 47 passenger coach bus to IRI and we have about 5 or 6 seats left. If you want to join us, the cost is about $85 round trip. The bus will leave on July 30th at 5 AM from Ambler, PA and return by the early evening on August 2nd. (Ambler is about 30 minutes north of Philadelphia)

If you are interested, please send me a PM.

Thanks!
