2010 Waterloo Regional - No Rookies?

[Raumiester2010]

i'm depressed that team 68 can't come this year just as we weren't able to come last year. Waterloo was one of my favorite competitions (particularly in 08' when we where the only American team there). the venue is quite nice and the people there where very friendly.

Good luck to everyone attending Waterloo this year!

Team 1000 is the only American team scheduled to be there this year, coming all the way from Indiana.

He did, in the thread on Armadillo (148's robot, for those that don't know.) Apparently he has work in New Zealand.

With only 8 days until practice day, I want to say that anyone having trouble with C++ or debugging should drop by 2702's pit and ask for Art. I helped get a bunch of teams get dead robots moving and out of control mechanisms moving smoothly last year and would love to help again.

Also, I should probably change my CD account to have my real name on it or something...

In the schedual it says that robot dropoff is on wednesday between 6 and 8 pm

Do we HAVE to drop off our robots that day? or can we just bring them with us on thursday?

No, you can bring them Thursday.

According to the e-mail sent out to team contacts, it's just a measure to alleviate some of the Thursday morning traffic, and eliminate the problem of finding secure overnight robot storage for the teams that are planning to arrive Wednesday.
