2011 Minnesota 10000 Lakes Regional

[keehun]

Our team, as mentioned early by Trent, is having TIMS/mentor internet issues... This is getting scary... (1 spot left and our main TIMS mentor's internet crapped out)...

Awesome!! I am looking froward to seeing you guys at the regional again! Last year one of your programmers helped us out a lot with something that was broken in our Pneumatics system. I don't remember exactly what it was at the moment, but it certainly improved our robot!

I wonder why 10000 lakes filled up this year faster than Northstar? The last two years it has been the other way around.......

To me it seems that we have more out-of-state teams attending the 10,000 Lakes Regional this year compared to the North Star. Also personally I like the way that 10,000 Lakes does the pits and field more when compared with the North Star Regional.

Same here, it keeps the Pits a little quieter having the separation though it makes bot travel a bit more annoying.

I take it you will be announcing again Tyler?

Could this thread be turned into a U of M Double Regional thread?

We're attending as rookies, and it sounds like a very friendly regional.

Well on behalf of team 2861, we would like to announce that we are going to be at 10,000 Lake Regional! This year we are going to have a very nice robot that apperently can do some damage to that scoreboard when we can get the logo across all the top pegs during teleop! Plus our robot is a fast defensive robot!

Hello teams at 2011 Minnesota 10000 Lakes Regionals

For the publication of THE NEW COOL, a narrative about FIRST, my publisher has printed out thousands of bookmarks for distribution at Regionals. They're a little late in the game (so it goes), but I'm looking for teams at the Regionals below who would be willing to pass them out in the stands and in the pits (probably roughly 1,000 bookmarks per regional).

I would send them directly to your team by mail next week. If you're interested and attending the Minnesota 10000 (or know of another team who would be), please let me know by emailing me directly at nbascomb@me.com.

Thanks,

Neal
