2011 New Jersey Regional

[Brandon_L]

Figured I'd kick off the topic. So who's returning to NJ? What do you expect? Any rookies or first time NJers coming?

I think Its going to be a blast as always!

Well Brandon, like I stated in our PM's we will be returning to NJ after our two year hiatus. I am SO excited that we are too since the playing field is very even for everyone. This provides teams that are going to be in other regionals an introduction to the game and how to play it. I know this will be very important when we go to Philly as well. I truly cannot wait until the regional though. I know for a fact that it will be very competitive and fun as well.

1676 is looking forward to it!

Teams I personally enjoy seeing every year:

1676 - I just like you guys. First thing I look for at NJ is usually your trailer in the parking lot
2016 - Awesome bot every year
224 - Made our last '09 match the match I remember most to this day.
816 - Lovin' that fro. Had fun helping you guys out for that entire half second this year, just to see you beat us later. haha.
303 - Thanks to them, we got our first trip into the eliminations.
1089 - All around huge help.
1923 - Helped us a ton in '09

Just a quick piece of info for everyone, we are registered for NJ as of yesterday.

Personally, I miss the NJ atmosphere. Our team decided not to go last year, but I loved the intensity, the venue, and the people! Although there are always the set up problems, those are at every regional. If it were up to me, NJ would be our first pick.

Im sure a few of us will be visiting, as always, to say a brief hello to everyone.

Good luck to every team attending!!!!

816 will be back in Jersey once again. Hopefully we'll be able to improve upon our Finalist Performance from last year.

There is more to our team than my hair, you know.

And let me know if there's anything we can do to pay back the help you gave us last year. You're more than welcome to come practice with us towards the end of Build Season.

I've never been to this regional before.
Last year was my 1st and I'm looking forward to this the new year and new challenges.
I guarantee I will be huddles in a corner somewhere.

NJ's initial capacity has been reached and registering teams are now going directly onto the wait list.

56 teams are showing with another ~10 potential openings on the wait list.

So glad to see things filling up with haste again...last year was slow everywhere. Should I even think for new controllers?

Just volunteered as Field Supervisor today, hopefully I get it and I can see you all!
