Dude, I have been to this bowling alley and it is far the best one I have ever been to! If I recall, they had an extensive arcade area, with an alternative DDR arcade machine (either StepMania or BeatMania). I know during summer nights, the bowling alley reserve several lanes for some Cosmic Bowling. To get you an idea of how big this place is, they took an old Wal-Mart and converted it to this massive bowling alley (I think they have a total of 90 lanes). I would highly recommend reserving those 48 lanes. Now if we can get several teams to be willing to go.

Hey Guys...
Team 845, Cutting Edge Robotics will be at the UCF competition again, I'm looking forward to it, it was great last year. I had not heard about there *not* being a social..which really sucks (hey, theres no other way to put it). I'm glad someone is trying to put something together unofficial, and I'll try to talk my team into going to it, it sounds real great.

[Jonathan M.]

Woo unofficial social. Sounds great I'll have to talk to my lead mentor about it.. -er or maybe Jay will. Well UCF is gonna be awesome! Last year was great, my team was inside though. I hope the tents are better this year.
Hope to see some of my good friends from some great teams this year. Jim (SigmaC@t), April (S.P.A.M.) and well you all know who you are. Lol Good luck to every one!

Hey everyone i know alot of people are following this thread and so i would like to bring up something. If you dont know at VCU regional this weekend there was a outbreak of a virus, were alot of people got sick they had the health department come and everything. FIRST made a offical statement to. As i was reading throught the CD thread about it i came to find out that there field, that was used in VCU is coming hear next

hear is the quote from the thread

It was Truck #2, which I know was going to Orlando next, then Peachtree, and I can't remember the rest of the route after that. I think anyone else who gets this truck should be ok; besides the disinfecting, the truck is traveling for several days, the virus will not have a host, so it should die off.

The symptons are nasty with vominiting and diaheraa some students and mentors ended up in the hospital.
Even though it was sanitized and hopefully died off, i just ask everyone this weekend to wash there hands and desanitize everythign. When human players get off the field wash your hands. Just be careful cause i knwo i dont want it and i dobut anyone else wants it

[Stephen Kowski]

gawd im going to orlando then peachtree....ugh im getting sick and that is all there is to it....

Can anyone please help me with a dilemma that i am facing this week for UCF i know there will be wireless internet acess at the competition. However the laptop my school is giving me to bring does not have built in wireless and they dont have a wireless pcmcia card. and i do not own one my self. So i was hoping someone that will be there might have an extra wireless card for me to use for the competition? If anyone does can they please pm me. Thank you in advance.

[Arefin Bari]

i would like to just point out... that whoever read this thread about the virus... they should let every single of their team member know about this whole situation... i really dont think that any of us want something like that happening @ UCF... when a lot of teams have another regional and championship event to go to...

[Ryan Albright]

Has the guy from FIRST posted his pictures yet? If he has can someone put a link on here thanks

[dez250]

well i could not find the powerpoint presentation that as said to be up, os ill keep checking for it every so often. But what i did find is the digital archives of the event are up all ready at the NASA UCF Page.

Great job guys! those finals were some of the most exciting I've seen ever in my 4 years at FIRST. I really believe some of the best robots got into the finals. I was dissapointed 233 broke at the end, just because I wanted to see what would have happend if they worked the entire match.

I think 945 quite possibly has one of the best robots in the nation right now! that thing was amazing and quite effecient.. capping and hanging within 25 seconds! thats truely amazing

Great job to everyone who was there it was truely an inspiring and fun regional. I can't wait for next year! Even tho I won't be on PAW ne more :: sniff sniff ::

See everyone at nationals ( hopefully )
