Krumlink called a short while ago. There are currently competing in the regionals. Their current standing is 5th or 6th place, it sounded like that was an OK spot to be in at this point. After the regionals teams will advance to the national finals.

Krumlink said the NASA channel will be providing coverage too.

EDIT: It sounded like he was having fun. The other team members were giving him grief while we were trying to talk. They were just outside the Atlanta aquarium. Mentioned lots of boarded up windows from the tornadoes last month.

I am sure the confusion was mine. Need more sleep. Just the same this is good stuff.

I thought I would post a schedule for tomorrow's (well, today's) events.

Qualification resumes at 8:45 ET, continues till 11:45. Division alliance pairings from then till 12:45. Division eliminations from 1:00 to 3:00.

World championships from 4:00 to 6:00.

Further detail.

NASA TV coverage is supposed to begin 9:00 AM and continue all day.

Krumlink just called. As of 10AM EST his team 494 was in 3rd position.

Go 494 Go

Krumlink update:
494 in is the quarter finals. They have won one and lost one. If they win the next match they will continue. Cross your toes.

If you are watching you will notice that the icon krumlink uses is the team logo.

494 did not get win they needed.

Good luck krummy!

Yeah, we lost in the quarter finals, but we were not shut out

Teams 217 (I am great friends with) team 1114 and team 148 won the championship. I had lot's of fun and I am very tired. I also talked to the people at www.altium.com for several hours and I am going to give him a call later today.

Thanks for the support
