2012 Kickoff Discussion

I think the topic title is self-explanatory, let’s just have a thread to keep all the discussion of what’s going on at kickoff in this one thread.

Pretty excited if you ask me.

30 minutes left!!
I wouldn’t be surprised at all if the CD servers couldn’t handle the traffic.
Good Luck Everyone!

The 2012 game is almost here! Good luck everyone!

Arrrgh… so angry that Mike and Justin are lagging and that my school connection blocks FIRST chat and FRC Bingo!

Y Kickoff no start sooner?!?!?!?!?!?

anyone got live feed?

The elevator music is better than most, good start to the season.

wait the broadcast is on nasa tv? yes?

i agree, but it’s getting to me…

the broadcast starts at 10am est right?

i’ve seen 9, 9:30, 10, 10:30… so i’ve been playing the waiting game while watching the orion spacecraft being dunked

same here. 10:04 Eastern.

note- the nasa TV schedule says it starts at 10:00… lies? a hint?

I hope it survives, after the work I put into moving everything to this new server. (Double the resources compared to last year.)

did anyone else hear dean talking about steven colbert on the live feed earlier?

The feed is live at the moment, but the actual content doesn’t come up till 10:30 EST

:confused: I don’t see it on NASA TV. Bummed OUT!

Maybe the primary stole the satellite truck?

It is 7:18 PST. I see an old tape of the ISS.

music with a mysterious, detective, elevator theme is playing.

Calling the name of the game “Eye Spy” or something.

keeps showing 20th season sign… (repeat of 2011 season?)

All I’m seeing is a revolving FIRST logo and the words “20th season.” The elevator music stopped. :frowning:

Screen go black for anyone else?

Nasa TV now shows a still image sign saying, FIRST Kickoff at 10:30
