I find it hard to believe that this thread has not been started already.
I was one of the last out of the building tonight. Everything is looking great for tomorrow.
I find it hard to believe that this thread has not been started already.
I just logged on to see if someone had started a Waterloo 2012 thread- I was going to start one if nobody had but bochek beat me to it!
Just finished packing the car with tools - Can’t wait!
Stream’s up on http://watchfirstnow.com, will start broadcasting tomorrow at opening ceremonies!
Broadcast started, you can watch it on Watch FIRST Now!
6 robots just balanced (two on each bridge)! That’s the first I’ve seen in all the regionals I’ve watched.
Wow, Waterloo must be interesting this year. I turned the stream on to see Karthik crawling across the field on his hands and knees. 
haha I think they’re running ahead of schedule, so they decided to introduce the last match in “super slow-mo” 
Never seen Karthik as MC before but he’s pretty great
Lots of elims-worthy matches already!
I have to say, watching the webcast, my new life goal is to go to an event MC’d by Karthik.
100% entertaining, amazing DJ, and great teams. This is on my hit-list of events to go to some day.
No other regional do I hear such a great playlist.
There is a student on my team who judges regionals by their playlist. 
I heard him introduce a team by their binary number. I think the team wrote it out for him, but it was still awesome.
The team did not write it out for him. He did it all in his head!
Come join us in the chat room over at watchfirstnow.com!
There is definitely some action going down at Waterloo! Definitelty going to be some interesting matches tomorrow. How do you think tomorrow will pan out? Will 3161 keep the #1 seed? Will 1114-2056 be broken up? Lots of quality robots competing!
Tronic Titans(3161) ranked number 1 at the end of the day!
I’m proud of are team (865) as we didn’t do too bad either. We and 2 other underdogs manged to break 1114s winning streak at the regional.
It looks like 2506 is going to be split up from 1114 and will likely alliance with Runnymede Robotics.
If you really want to confuse the crowd, start introducing teams in hexadecimal. “Multiple regional winners, it’s team 4-5-A!” Plus, you can tell all the rookies cause they have four digits.
They are leading, but just by a tiny margin. The air in the building was “electric” with the tension as this unfolded. Tomorrow will be very interesting.
That was a phenomenal match to watch!
Congratulations to Roger Balech of 3161 for winning the Woody Flowers Finalist award today. Couldn’t got to a more deserving guy!
Are you sure about that?
3161, 1114, and 1503 are all tied with a Qualification Score of 26.00. All three teams have 2 more matches to play tomorrow. 1114 will not play any of these two teams. 1503 and 3161 will be on the same alliance for their first match of the day.
1114 will only be facing one team tomorrow that is ranked inside the top 10.
My guess is that 1114 will win their two matches and 3161 will win at least one of the two. It will be up to the coopertition bridge.
Just an observation if 1114 does not alliance with 2056 by one of are members who have been watching comps since he was in kindergarten. So far his observations have been pretty accurate.
I agree. Congratulations to 1334 mentor alumni Roger Balech and welcome to the WFFA crowd. Well deserved.
