Re: VEX Robotics World Championship Webcast

Does anyone have a schedule? In particular, does anyone know when the elimination rounds will be?

Re: VEX Robotics World Championship Webcast

This is the most international Robotics competition I've ever seen. Props to IFI for going around the world to bring countries to a very diverse robotics competition.

Here is a team list of Championship

Re: VEX Robotics World Championship Webcast

I'm watching the opening ceremonies on the Webcast. Very professional looking so far. The flags of all those countries are an impressive display -- sort of like looking at the FLL world festival.

The Webcast quality is excellent. I wish all the FIRST Webcasts looked this good.

Re: VEX Robotics World Championship Webcast

Wow great day of competition. IFI ran the event extremely well!

So far my prediction is doing well. The top 3 seeded teams are Canada, China, China. Canucks, the number one seed have excellent driving (I think I spot Brandon the lead driver of FRC1114 coaching) and a very good robot. However, I think if they select 1114 as their number one pick, they will fall to the very dangerous chinese 11 and 13 alliance. 11 can descore as well as score mass balls, while 13 can pick up 20 balls in autonomous. If Canucks want any chance of winning, I think they should break up this alliance.

Re: VEX Robotics World Championship Webcast

11 is amazing. I'd also like top point out that team 24 is pretty impressive as well. They can score and descore very quickly, we were playing against them in our 3rd match when we scored all three black balls and almost filled up the rest of the bridge section with balls, we went to pick up a few more balls and when we got back all three black balls and about half the other balls were gone!


Also, is anyone archiving the webcast, I would like to watch some of our matches...

Oops, the Chinese teams 11 and 13 did not understand the declining part of alliance selection. There goes their plan.
