Very cool to see 9 Wisconsin teams get invited after having only 4 or 5 teams attend IRI since 2007.

[smurfgirl]

The first year my team gets in I won't be in the country for the summer...

Have fun guys!

[Squeakypig]

Sheeoot, I suppose we'll have to try to impress the crowd a little more next year.

However I plan on attending anyways this year

[ketaki_shashank]

Team 1124 is very thankful! Now lets hope we can go! This would be the perfect way to send off the best four years of my life!

Looks like a great list of teams...I hope the webcast works this year...

[Akash Rastogi]

What type of criteria goes into the selection other than robot performance? I see one or two teams who had less than spectacular seasons that I could see easily replaced by some of the other applicants who were not selected.

So what types of things does the IRI committee look for? (For future reference if a team of mine applies). Thanks.

Also, very cool to see Sachem Aftershock and Stuy Pulse being invited to the IRI! At least I have a few locals to root for.

For your future reference, here's a past answer.

Maybe Code Red(2771) has one more webcast in them. They did a great job with all the FiM events.

[Craig Roys]

When should we expect our email with instructions? I haven't received anything yet - or am I just being way too anxious?

[Sean Schuff]

One word descriptor for this field of teams: YIKES!!

Thanks for the invite! Can't wait!!
