I was just wondering if anyone heard if there was anything new with the situation of the New England Regional and Nationals being so close together? Also would anyone happen to know if the New Jersey competition maxed out yet?
Thanx,

Nothing new yet…wait to see the manual at the kick-off for ship dates etc…
The NJ Regional has NOT been maxed out yet. NE is 2 teams away from closing…as is the NY regional…but NJ is okay…for now!

I just read an email from Lori that says that robots will have to be shipped on Saturday right after the regionals. This applies to all regionals - not just the NE and CA regionals.
That means that we will not get any time to fix the broken parts before we ship it. That is unless you lose early and can do it that evening before they make you pack it up.
I replied and suggested that they consider giving us more time (leave the pits open later) on the practice day to make fixes.
What does everyone think?
