Re: Updates At The Championship - Where Are You And What's Going On?

Team 201 arrived in Atlanta around 6 PM after being on the road for aproximately 15 hours. We set up the pit tonight, got the robot inspected, ate a delicious dinner at a local shopping center, and are finally at the hotel relaxing.

We are trying to do some homework and getting scouting assignments finalized.

Re: Updates At The Championship - Where Are You And What's Going On?

Team 910 - The Foley Freeze took a bus down and arrived this morning around noon. We toured the "World of Coke" this afternoon, and then split up into a load-in/pit setup group, a conference group, and a head back to the hotel and swim group.

We're staying at the new Springhill Suites by the airport. Anyone else?

Looking forward to seeing all our friends from around the country this weekend!

I can confirm that 558 has made it safely into Atlanta, and has settled in with a team member's tethered blackberry!

Good Luck New Haven, CT! You know by now of course - your crate made it OK too.

If you're that desperate for fast internet, walk up to Georgia Tech .


But yeah, I would much rather be in a hotel, anxiously waiting for the competition and trying to go to sleep, than in GT's library working on a lab report.

Re: Updates At The Championship - Where Are You And What's Going On?

Hi Jane

I arrived yesterday and really look forward to meeting with teams today - before judging tomorrow. One thing I noticed is there are more recycle bins around, in the hotel room, airport, the thought of saving water is also present.

If anyone used SolidWorks Sustainability to determine the carbon footprint for green robot parts, please send me a private message. I would love to know the results.

See you soon. Marie

Re: Updates At The Championship - Where Are You And What's Going On?

My crate pictures are up now. Sorry if it seems excessive to do that, but these are seldom seen but are part of a team's zeitgeist. I wish there were a way to tame the random unspillable battery notice sheet and the addresses etc. I suppose they're necessary, but is there a regulation that requires they be at a particular height? I'm sure they don't have to be crooked.

Re: Updates At The Championship - Where Are You And What's Going On?

I'm at my sister's house on the east side of town near 285 since Sunday. I got to attend my niece's seventh birthday party and nearly got mauled by my other niece's psychotic cat which seemed hell bent to tear me a new one (must have gotten an e-mail from my mom's Ed-hatin' cat: If you see this dude GET IM!).
I'm on Curie queing and enjoying the last go around in Atlanta (though I am very concerned that Freaknik is happening with the hundred of other things in Atlanta this weekend, Traffic will be a nightmare).

Hi Ed, glad you are here for the last event in Atlanta. Sounds like you need to steer clear of cats. Think Freaknic will be mostly outside of downtown but we will see. Hope to see you for one last time on Saturday as I am at work now.

Wow, Chris Fultz as the 2010 Woodie Flowers Award winner. What a terrific start to Friday at the World Championship.

Enjoy Friday in Atlanta, all!
