Even though it still reads a bit doubtful, it is a long-awaited signal for participants. Frankly, I'm happy not to take part in the RoboCup world championships this year... Dear RoboCuppers, Thank you very much for your patience regarding the status ... http://carpenoctem.das-lab.net/2008/05/15/robocup-2008-event-location-china-confirmed Just a few hours ago a mail from the RoboCup federation dropped in, stating that the RoboCup World Championships in Suzhou, China, will be cancelled: Due to the Olympic related issues, the Government in Suzhou, China will not be able to hold RoboCup 2008 IN JULY. [...] Is this a fake or not? ... http://carpenoctem.das-lab.net/2008/05/05/robocup-2008-in-china-cancelled The RoboCup German Open 2008 are over but some teams are looking forward to the RoboCup World Championships in Suzhou, China in about two months. We will not take part as we do not have the funding and nobody has any free time left. We concentrated on the German Open ... http://carpenoctem.das-lab.net/2008/04/29/german-open-2008-in-retrospect We've lost the half final against CoPS Stuttgart with 1:2 but the game was great!

Both teams decided to go for a golden goal in the extra time. ... http://carpenoctem.das-lab.net/2008/04/25/half-finals Today the games of the second round robin were scheduled, staring at 11am with Carpe Noctem against Brainstormer Tribots. We never really thought about shooting a goal against the current world champions and we lost 0:6 but the game was far from boring. The second game today against the double mixed ... http://carpenoctem.das-lab.net/2008/04/24/second-round-robin The second and last game for today finally looked good. The first half was chaotic like before. At halftime we decided to force roles on the robots instead of calculating them with the role assignment. With that we were able to win the game against ISePorto with 0:3. One step closer to ... http://carpenoctem.das-lab.net/2008/04/23/113 Today's game was much better than the last one. We won 4:0 against PaderKickers. It was not perfect but no robot stopped working completely. We still have problems when there are too many of our players on the field. The new static communication-middleware was a huge success and made this game possible. ... http://carpenoctem.das-lab.net/2008/04/23/todays-game We had our first game yesterday, CoPS vs. Carpe Noctem. It started late because of the usual delays at 19:15. The first half was not so bad even though we noticed very strange behavior of our robots. The first half ended 0:2 for us. We tried to find the problem why ... http://carpenoctem.das-lab.net/2008/04/23/yesterdays-game
