Re: Registration 2010
DC is now at published capacity.
(3:30pm - Midwest has filled too) (9am,Oct 22 - Peachtree is full) (Oklahoma has just one initial slot open) All three have probably at least 10 slots held in reserve for late registering rookies and waitlist teams that may add on after today, so don't be shy about signing up, even though it looks full right now. Waitlist teams in Michigan have been moved off the district waitlists. Expect to see these top out at 40 teams each. Kettering: 33 Traverse: 33 Ann Arbor: 29 Cass Tech: 26 W. Mi.: 37 Detroit: 28 Troy: 32 Boilermaker add one team off the waitlist. Boston dropped one, then added one. Over 1400 teams now (1402). Registration is ahead of last year at this same time (~9%), but not by last year's margin over the year before that (~15%). Should have a healthy increase before 2nd regional registration opens tomorrow. Of course after 2nd registration, open capacity will quickly fill up and we won't be able to see where the waitlists stand. Here are some stats on the eve of the second registration rush. Some region codes are left to the reader to figure out what country they belong to.  Code:
Missing from the 2009 Season TX 43 IS 37 CA 29 NY 26 ON 24 MN 19 MI 18 MO 17 AZ 15 OH 14 CO 12 MA 12 PA 11 HI 10 FL 9 LA 9 VA 9 DC 8 NV 8 OK 7 WA 7 GA 6 KS 6 NJ 6 NH 5 OR 5 IL 4 MD 4 CT 3 IN 3 SC 3 AL 2 BC 2 ID 2 ME 2 NC 2 ND 2 NM 2 QC 2 WI 2 AB 1 AK 1 IA 1 KY 1 MS 1 MT 1 MX 1 PL 1 RI 1 TN 1 UK 1 UT 1 VT 1 WV 1 WY 1 Code:

Currently Registered CA 125 MI 121 NY 103 MN 68 NJ 59 VA 54 WA 51 OK 50 TX 50 IL 46 MA 44 PA 39 FL 37 MO 37 CT 36 OH 35 ON 34 IN 32 OR 28 WI 28 AZ 26 GA 24 MD 24 NH 24 CO 23 SC 20 KS 16 HI 14 IS 12 NC 12 UT 12 MS 10 TN 10 ID 9 DC 8 LA 8 NV 8 AL 7 PR 7 BR 6 ME 5 MT 5 KY 3 ND 3 WV 3 AK 2 DE 2 IA 2 MX 2 NM 2 QC 2 RI 2 UK 2 VT 2 AR 1 Australia 1 Brazil 1 Chile 1 GE 1 Netherlands 1 TK 1 WY 1 Here's where the Regionals stand as of 9am before 2nd Registration opens at noon. I added an estimate of the unpublished full capacity based purely on last year's attendance (and Philly's last time at Drexel). Traditionally, FIRST makes events hold back 10 slots, but that varies if they expect explosive growth in rookies in a particular area. In my experience these capacity totals are not absolute. Some venues can squeeze in a few more if push comes to shove, but that's completely at the discretion of each Regional Director and FIRST HQ and how the event furniture can be rearranged. Red simply indicates that the event has reached it's initial published capacity. Code:

Re: Registration 2010
More events filled up quickly as you'd expect.
Championship only had 24 open slots and they were gone in seconds. San Diego, Finger Lakes, Greater Kansas, New Jersey, NYC, WPI, North Carolina are all at currently released capacity. If you're already on the waitlist by now, then you'll probably get in to those events. P.S. Oklahoma and Connecticut are now full too (5pm) P.P.S Buckeye is full (9pm) Last edited by Mark McLeod : 22-10-2009 at 22:07. |

At 6:00am Hawaii time, we tried to get in repeatedly. It kept saying ineligible until about 6:10am, it finally said eligible, at which time we got waitlisted.  I called FIRST about 6:05am and they said it was probably because the official eligibility sign up was tomorrow. I didnt believe it still trying. Then I called back and said we got waitlisted (eligible). Two weeks ago, they said getting in was based on who paid first, and so on. When I asked, they said that policy got changed back to who signed up first because people complained about not being able to pay on the spot. Personally, I think the issue went from one complaint type to another. Now, its about who can get through the system faster than others. Hawaii always had a hard time signing up for these situations due to our location. We tried Florida several years ago and couldnt get in for an hour. By the time we got on, we knew why. Everyone that wanted to sign up, already did and filled the regional. What about teams that are prepared to pay and do what it takes to raise the funds necessary to participate vs who can get on the fastest?  Last edited by waialua359 : 22-10-2009 at 18:03. |

And frankly I am not really sure I want to make a high priced, rushed trip expedition at the last minute even if we do get in at some point late in the season. The increase in airfares and last minute rush isn't worth it. Soo- I am going to the team next meeting to suggest we put the money saved on going to Atlanta into another shot out your way next season ; ). I'll just hate to miss playing with all our friends across the country as we do at Nats and we still havent won the Galileo division- the only win we haven't achieved.. Of course if there are still slots open for the Vegas regional we are playing there and expect to have a great time. They know how to have fun at that event. WC |

Re: Registration 2010
We are having problems verifying registration for FTC, Madison High School in San Diego, for January 16, 2010. Does anyone know if it is TIMS or if California FTC events have been canceled? All three California FTC events show "PENDING", even the one that is passed.
Absent that, does anyone have contact information for the Madison High School FTC team that is hosting the event? Please e-mail WHSrobotics@aol.com Thank you! |
