Any word on a webcast this year?

[Stephen Kowski]

I'll add a 2nd on the webcast question, anyone know anything?

I really want to see the maroons out there on the field (i hope)

We (team 461) may be able to stream the video via ustream. We will need to talk to Purdue FIRST before doing this, I'll keep you updated and post a link if indeed we host a webcast.

Now that practice matches are over i'm just wondering what people thought of some of the robots and teams.

[lenny8]

[CassCity2081]

Yeah same with that 2081 team!

But seriously 1018 you guys looked pretty solid. Im excited to see how you do tomorow

[Goober!!!]

Congratulations to the winning alliance of 45, 868, and 2171. It was an honor to play against you in the semifinals. Also congratulations to 234 for winning the Regional Chairman's Award.

[Richard Wallace]

It appears the BMR venue may have lost their internet feed during awards ceremony -- match results are all there, but most of the Saturday awards were not uploaded.

Can anyone post other awards results?

[Qbranch]

Congratulations 45, 868, 2171!

Ps, 1501, you definitely had my favorite robot to watch.

Team 2171 would like to thank teams 45 and 868 for allowing us into your alliance. It was an extreme honor to play by your side. Both coaches were extremely helpful to our drive team. My team and I are all relatively inexperienced. I myself, am a rookie as well as most of our team members. The coaches of teams 45 and 868 helped guide us and give us a chance to learn some very valuable lessons. We never were one of those "big name" teams, neither are we very large as our members total around 17 but we consider it an honor to be allied with teams who are. We all are very grateful for your assistance and choosing of our team. We only wish we were more of a help to your cause in those latter matches. Once again, thank you all very much. We'll be doing our best to try to make it to Atlanta.

1501, I can't believe the pounding you took in the semis. It just proves the strength of your beautiful monocoque design.

I'm also still in disbelief with that final match, its was just beyond words.

It was an honor competing with, and against everyone.
Thank you 45, and 2171 for making a great alliance! Best of luck to everyone with your future matches, I look forward to watching the Championship Event on webcast, and participating in IRI this summer.





Boiler UP!

[CassCity2081]

Best Competition Ive ever attended.

Congrats team 868, 45, and 2171 on winning. Those final matches against you guys were amazing to be a part of. Best of luck as you guys move on to Atlanta

Thank you teams 234 and 2856 for partnering with us. You guys were great and we even upset the number one alliance. Also congrats to 234 on Chairmans Award. Finally I want to congratulate my teammate Matt Birkel on being nominated for the Deans List.

See you guys next year

[Steven Zehner]

I do have to say, those last few matches were some of the most exciting matches I have seen in my years on team 45.

Thanks to teams 868 and 2171 for partnering up with us and dealing with our "nerdy" selves. Another thanks goes out to all of the other teams at the event who made it what it was (BMR is always amazing).

[Chris Fultz]

Congratulations to the winning alliance of 45, 868 and 2171 - well played and exciting finals!

Thanks to our partners 2081 and 2856 - i think we were a great fit for an alliance and we were oh, so close!
