I and team #0000 (FRC Referees) are really psyched to be there. It should be awesome, especially if there are fewer field bugs than GLR

P.S. - Stevie - where's my hat?

I've got a laundry list of questions, but i'll only post a few...

1. Where is Detroit Regional's field coming from?
2. Who are the MC's?
3. Will there be a wednesday night early uncrating and if so what time?
4. Does anyone want to help us out with FSN/STAMP???/SOAP??? at the Regional?
5+. I'll put these down later....

4. Why won't you, all it is is (wow) a fancy name for scouting!

EDIT: NM, you are probably a little busy with voluteering.

New Questions:
5. Does anyone want to meet up at the regional and just hang out?
6. Is anyone thinking about potential alliance partners?
7+. More to come....

Knocking on all the wood I can find, we have eradicated most of the bugs from the GLR Field.

We will also be running a backup match results db to double check the rankings from the main match db.

We learned a lot on the real time and human scoring sides last week and hope to have far fewer problems this week. The head ref is Ron Webb (same as GLR) and I'll be running the field again, but most importantly the Husky Brigade is signed up for scoring, so I won't have to explain the game to the scorers.

We'll start scoring practice matches on Thursday and with a far more relaxed schedule than GLR we'll be able to fix problems as they happen instead of limping through to the end of the day.

I personally think that is great!
This gives me 2 advantages:
1. Not having to drive on a glitched field (I might be the driver).
2. It gives me time (in case of a field problem) to go help better organize our scouting team/FSN/STAMP?/SOAP? which i'm heading.
?=Maybe

Good luck at the Competition!

[Tomasz Bania]

Well the First day was great!
The field was very reliable, almost no glitching, with just a few minor issues.

Everyone who is at this regional should login to the scouting system which could really help out your team.

To login you will have to see me (I'll either be at the tables or around the stands) to recieve a team password. Each team can have as many accounts as you want. We will have an announcement tommorrow morning or just see me if you need any more information!

P.S. If you need match video, we have it. Also come and see me about that.

TBA. They didn't practice. Methinks Paul is trying to keep their strategy a secret...
