Thank you so much for webcasting the Bayou Regionals! My grandparents, who couldn't make the trip, and my stepmom, who lives in Germany, were all able to watch the competition. They were so excited when they found out they could watch it live I was just wondering if you're going to broadcast from St. Louis? Hey It’s Kitty from Team 364!

Without your efforts, I would not have gotten to see near as many competitions. You are providing a great service! Thanks for providing the webcasts for the Michigan events this year.

He is one of 2 freshmen, along with 1 sophomore, 1 junior & 2 senior teammates. This was our rookie year in FIRST robotics. We had zero funding from our own high school, a GRACIOUS donation from JC Penny Corporation, and I believe some from the local store, also Home Depot, and that was it. Our budget to build a WINNING robot was around $400. Our first event was the GVSU district event, where we were ranked at one time time as high as 7th I believe. Team 27 RUSH awarded us on the second day with a plaque recognizing our respect for our peers, after we ended their undefeated run near the end of the previous day. We finished 24th, but were picked by an alliance captain to compete with them ,as we had demonstrated very good AUTONOMOUS scores, as well as good offense, & teamwork & respect. We ended up being eliminated in the quarterfinals, but felt we had done very well just to reach that goal. Then, we entered the Niles West Michigan district event (awesome job by them hosting) to finish ~ 5th place the first day, & finish our 12th match in 7th place. Through alliance selections, we became the captain of the 5th place team. We chose team 167 from Kalamazoo, & 3509 from Niles as our teammates. We ended up up losing in the 3rd round of quarterfinals, but were very pleased with the results considering the initial goal was just to make the robot move. We definitively enjoyed both watching your team play (& win) as well as your team spirit exhibited in the event. You had an awesome presence at that event. We GRACIOUSLY accepted an award for being the "Highest Seeded Rookie" as well as a shocking " Rookie All Star " award. I felt so very proud of my team, as I watched these young kids celebrate their accomplishments. So, I give your team my utmost respect, & also ask for any tips on becoming what it takes to become a team recognized by our peers as deserving of their respect. Yours truly, Gary Bishop ( father of Max Bishop). Looking forward to working throughout the year on fundraising, obtaining sponsors, developing ideas for doing things better, promoting our team, recruiting new members etc. Thank you, any help at all will be greatly appreciated.

This time, can't hear the announcers - only the music. I like to hear the introductions, etc. 2. The ads take up too much of the time on screen. I like to see the teams set-up, etc. Can't you put the ads on half of the screen during the set-up and take-down time? 3. This is an unsatisfactory way to watch - not worth watching. I don't feel like I'm there. 4. I'd like to watch my nephew compete but don't have enough visual to even find him. 5. I think watching NCAA BB today is a better use of my time unless this is improved. 6. Email me if you fix this. In the meantime, I'll rely on text messages for team information. CJC2 Good morning,
I watched this 2 weeks ago and it was great – at GVSU.
1. This time, can’t hear the announcers – only the music. I like to hear the introductions, etc.
2. The ads take up too much of the time on screen. I like to see the teams set-up, etc. Can’t you put the ads on half of the screen during the set-up and take-down time?
3. This is an unsatisfactory way to watch – not worth watching. I don’t feel like I’m there.
4. I’d like to watch my nephew compete but don’t have enough visual to even find him.
5. I think watching NCAA BB today is a better use of my time unless this is improved.
6. Email me if you fix this. In the meantime, I’ll rely on text messages for team information.

My grandparents who were not able to come enjoyed watching the webcast live all day. They felt as though they were right there with us. Thanks again.
