Phillies & Wilbur awards?

[Kevin Thorp]

Did anyone here attend the "Phillies & Wilbur awards" at the Championship? How was it? Know who won?

Our team was in attendance at this year's Phil and Will show. It was a bit noisy since the time chosen for it was during qualification matches this year, but it went well.

This year a top 6 in each category wasn't announced before hand, so there was a greater element of suspense. Apparently this page: http://www.autodesk.com/firstbase was supposed to be updated on May 2nd. I am surprised that the page hasn't been updated yet, but stay tuned... It should show the winners.

I don't recall all of the smaller awards, I'll list a few from memory:

Team 75, Robo Raiders won the overall Excellence in Design award
Team 1671, Buchanan Bird Brains won the overall Animation award

As for the Phil and Will show, I recall Cybersonics #103 winning the best design process award and Skunkworks Robotics #1983 winning the Best wiring award.

As for animation, I know that the Rocketeers #20 won an animation award.

Other than those, I'm drawing a blank. I shall edit this post once they release the official winners.

Congrats to all, sorry If I can't remember them all as we had to rush to a qualification match at the very end.
