Hawaii Regional 2008

[TKM.368]

20 out of 37 teams are rookies? Well, doesn't seem like it's going to be an easy regional after all with the six regional champions who are going to be in attendance:

25 - New Jersey
233 - Florida
254 - Silicon Valley
337 - Pittsburgh
368 - Oregon
968 - San Diego

In fact, it should be quite exciting!

People have been asking about webcasts - not even sure if the arena will have internet to do so (are there other ways to get a webcast out and not spend $10,000??).

Can't go without saying congratulations to all the Hawaii teams coming back home with awards:

359 - Entrepreneurship, Website, and Quality Awards in Virginia
2024 - Engineering Inspiration and Regional Finalists in San Jose
2437 - Rookie All Stars in Wisconsin

this is going to be an interesting regional to say the least. lets hope everything goes well for this, as for internet im not sure if the arena is equiped with it or not either.

also congratulations to the hawaii teams for representing well once again.

Is the webcast working for you guys, because it isn't working for me?

[Joe_Widen]

Anyone have a link so I can look at the picture of hawaii and listen to the sounds too?!!

[AustinSchuh]

I am having trouble with the webcast too. I get a "connection timed out" message every time I try.

The list of webcasts is here and the Hawaii one is here

I was able to access it yesterday when they were testing it, but it's not working for me today, probably since it's just the practice rounds

...Just watched 254 and 968 on the same alliance in a practice match. All I can say is WOW, look out Hawaii!

Makes sence. Remember, 1:00 PM PDST = 10:00 AM HST

We've been on a lunch break. It's a little after 1 pm now. We should be back up in about an hour.

See you then.

From the matches i have seen in the webcast they have been doing great. hurdling like crazy, and picking up the ball quickly.

I haven't seen them try auton. since there last regional when the hit the wall...

233,25, and 968 are also doing good as expected,
