@JustLegallyMe @BrianMarette @CenturyLink They said have it fixed by then. With an estimate that far out, I have very little faith in its accuracy.

[Jonathan Stratis @MNFIRSTLRI]

@BrianMarette @JustLegallyMe @CenturyLink I sent them a dm, they asked for my ssn - like anyone wants to give that on request over social media. I got through on the chat on their website and finally got an answer there - they’re targeting 1:35pm tomorrow to have it fixed.

[Jonathan Stratis @MNFIRSTLRI]

Well, just tried again… apparently service won’t be restored until tomorrow afternoon. @CenturyLink this is… highly disappointing. Communication on the issue had been abysmal, timeframe for fixing it is terrible, even the process of contacting your support staff was terrible.

[Jonathan Stratis @MNFIRSTLRI]

@CenturyLink this is not good customer support. No acknowledgement of the outage, no estimate for when service will be restored, just “we can’t help anyone”.

If you ever wondered what it takes to stream the @FIRSTUpperMW awards show to both twitch and YouTube, this is it!

Pretty much the FIRST life-cycle, from rookie to graduating senior!

[Jonathan Stratis @MNFIRSTLRI]

With such a wide age range involved with @FIRSTweets, it'll be interesting to see the results... I started with 1, and even brought it in for the kids to try their hand at the original donkey Kong before the FIRST Power Up kickoff! #omgrobots

@WARPSPEED4239 @MNFIRSTRegional Great idea! My team has used powerpoles for 10 years, and we love the 775 connect and its competitors from other vendors (Ozzy Boards had the first product like this, followed by The Robot Space, which improved on the concept, and then their partnership with Vex).

Hey @MNFIRSTRegional teams - summer discussion topic: what do you want to see added to or changed in the kit of parts? Is there some amazing widget you've bought the past couple of years? Is there something you've gotten in the past KoP and never used? Let's hear some ideas!

The Henry Sibley Lightning Turtles @frc3100 seemed to change names overnight and are now the Lightning Flamingos at the #MSHSL State Robotics Tournament. @therobettes #FriendsWithRobots

[Jonathan Stratis @MNFIRSTLRI]

@YojiShimizu @MNFIRSTRegional @MSHSL I think it's 12. Next question: which teams have qualified and attended the state tournament every year?

[Jonathan Stratis @MNFIRSTLRI]

Look at these awesome inspection stickers for the @MSHSL State Robotics Tournament! Which @MNFIRSTRegional team will be the first to get one tomorrow? #OMGRobots
