I know SuperNerd256 started this thread for yesterdays happenings… and i hope he doesn’t mind me hijacking the idea :rolleyes:
I didn’t get to watch as much of the live stream as i had hoped so i’d like to hear how the divisions went today.
Also, itd be neat to hear anything else that you found cool about the CMP this year! (Is the Kinect lounge area back?)
I know its Friday night and most teams won’t be checking CD but for those of you who are: be generous!
I’ll go ahead and do that: Award winners? What award winners?
Most of the awards are given on Saturday at the Championships. The only ones given Friday are WFA, Dean’s List, and possibly Founders’. No robot awards–those are Saturday.
Today they gave out Woodie Flowers, Dean’s List, Volunteer of the Year, Website Award, and that new Future Innovator’s Award…I don’t remember any names but the Woodie Flowers winner was from Earl Scime from 2614 Website went to 115, and Volunteer of the Year was Dr. Aiden (SP?) Browne
EDIT: Thanks for the corrections, my bad on those.
Sean, hijack my threads all you want (please, I’ve started way too many. ;))
The last match on Newton was just amazing to me. 1717 vs. 118 was awesome. It’s obvious that as the day goes on tomorrow, 1717 will continue being the first ranked team after their complete domination today. Who they will pick is now the question. Will they go with 118, who is a complete awesome scorer and matched them in teleop points during their last round today, or will they go with the famed Las Gurillas, who have been great offensive beasts despite some small accuracy issues I’m sure they’ll fix, and have more triple balance experience than 118?
I’m wondering of the upending upcoming of the split of 987 and 341. If 233 wins their match tomorrow and gets co-op then 987 and 341 could be split up. By running the numbers 987 looks to go undefeated. 233 looks to have a close match to 1986. So that match that 233 has could determine the whole outcome of curie. Interesting…
Also shout out to 3173 from the Rochester area. They are ranked second in Galileo!
That match with 118 and 1717 was amazing. 118 has been tearing it up in the division (yay, I picked them in Fantasy FIRST!). 2056 has found their fire and they are bringing it on, and 2826 is dominating. Dark Horse 2415 doesn’t have an impressive record, but they have been wreaking havoc out there. They have the 3rd or 4th best TP and the 2nd best HP so far, and seem to be unstoppable (except by dead alliance partners or comm issues by others).
I really am excited to see what goes on. 1717 hasn’t tripled in regulation, so that may be a factor in determining who accepts their alliance invitation. I think Newton will be the division to watch for epic matches, and Archimedes will be the division which will most likely see “Scorched Earth”.
