If 234 would come that would be soooooo awsome that would be teams from 7 states that come and a new team to the park and an awsome team at that.

Is there going to be any competition like you had last year.

Just some thoughts

1) Human player stack 8 high in the fastest time.

2) Robot knocking the most bins in 15 sec.

Can we bring some other NJ locals? I think 1089 wants to come and we talked to Manville about it too.

I sure hope they come. Those rookies were great at J&J. Manville really earned their 4th seed.

We're up for it, for sure!

We need to rake up some cash, but yeah, we'd love to. I couldn't find detailed info re: cost and date on the site, but I just got back from the regional (and dinner) and my brain didnt try to look too hard. Will try tomorrow, and talk about it with the team on tuesday (read: making sure they're able to scrape more money together).

Our entire team has FIRST fever now -- it's nuts

ARGGGGGHHHHHHHH!

We'd love to come considering it'd be close and we could get transportation easily, but being in the middle of exam week does not help most teams.

ARGGGGGHHHHHHHH!

Miss Daisy will be there again...PARC is one of the best off season events that we attend, IMO.

(the obvious exception is Ramp Riot )

Mini Games

I would love to see a mini game where there were 20 bins on each side of the field, and 2 at a time, robots battle it out for who can make the biggest stack within oh say 3 minutes. That would be so cool. Or even a stacking contest for humans where they would have to make the highest stack in 2 minutes. With a little help from some people on my team, I put 14 in the air. We would've made 15 if it weren't for the ceiling. Who needs that anyway... ceiling HA.

Is there any way you could put out a listing of mini-games before the event? That would be cool. Thanks. See you there.
