Although all spots have been filled, we will maintain a waiting list for Ramp Riot and will start moving teams off of the waiting list as openings develop, but no later than 10/11/10.

Last year several openings developed in early September. We also currently have one spot reserved for a pre-rookie team, but do not, as yet have a pre-rookie to fill the opening. This spot will be opened on 10/11/10 if it remains unfilled.

Last year all 5 teams on our waiting list ended up making it to Ramp Riot with ample notice to prepare. We encourage teams to continue to register for Ramp Riot. Please register at www.team341.com
Go to the side bar and click on "Ramp Riot".

Best Wishes to everyone for a great Fall season!!

Hello all Ramp Riot Teams!

Opening Video Help:
Each year we produce an opening video to honor our participating teams. Please send your team pictures of your students, robots, important team moments from 2010, etc. to:

rampriot@team341.com

Also, if you have video files, we can try our best to include them too. Please either send a download link to rampriot@team341.com or mail us a DVD (mail them to: Alan Ostrow, Wissahickon HS, 521 Houston Road, Ambler, PA 19002). Videos must be a minimum of SD video quality at 720px wide. Preferred formats include: .mov, .mp2, .mp4, .avi. (Unacceptable formats include: .wmv)

We want to include everyone in the opening video and truly honor the attending teams! Please be sure to send us your stuff!

We would love to have all of your media by September 30th so act now!

See you at Ramp Riot!

[OZ_341]

Ramp Riot Teams:

Please send those pictures and videos as per the instructions in the thread above. It really enhances your team's experience to be honored in the opening video with HIGH QUALITY pictures and video.

Kirsten and the media team work hard to make you look good on the big screen. So the sooner you send in the material, the better the video will be for every team.

If you would like to see last year's Ramp Riot videos, please check out the links below.

We will continue to maintain a waiting list.

We just wanted to mention again that all 5 teams on last year's waiting list made it into the 2009 event, with plenty of notice.

We currently only have one team on our waiting list. At this point your chances of making it into Ramp Riot are strong. So please don't hesitate to register.

Thanks!
