oh look registration is open now


Wondering how many new people there'll be this year, there were a lot of new teams at moto this year, and there's already one new guy that's aiming for bot blast.

Are event registrations on the rise? I've been sitting on my ass for a decade since the last event I've been to because there aren't any in Texas anymore (and I'm not about to blow my ETO to go travel to the east coast for an event).

There have been a lot this year, mostly in florida and the upper west coast. Pennsylvania doesn't have anything new (same NERC, Pennbots and Bot Blast events) but there's talks of an event in Massachusetts this fall, which I'm looking forward to.

Best bets from Texas are Dragon Con in Atlanta or the southern California events, neither of which are exactly close.

Bummer. :( I can afford to travel now (financially), but I ironically can't afford to do so when it comes to using up my actual time-off hours from work.
