Me thinks there will be Canadian dominance this ruckus.

Also is alliance selections going to be the same as last year Ed?

Methinks that remains to be seen.

Depending on number of teams registering, I hope they remove the restriction of not picking within the top four seeds.

What was so special about last year's alliance selection? (Didn't go with the team last year.)

I'm happy to see many friends have registered, including 2791 from way out near Troy.

Even with this early list I can tell that Ruckus will be quite an event. Looking Forward to it!

Last year, the top 4 teams could not pick within the top 4 teams, so as to try and balance out the top teams so the matches would no be a complete blowout.

Those 8 teams by themselves are extremely intimidating

[smistthegreat]

Just a little bit of data on the 8 teams already registered:

The 8 teams so far have a combined record of 232 wins, 107 losses, and 3 ties. They also have a combined 6 regional wins and 6 regional finalists. This is going to be an incredible event.

340 is in!

Is it bad that when I read this, my first thought was "Nick, is 1503 coming to Ruckus!?!" Yeah... I realized my folly Unless you really know if 1503 is coming to Ruckus.

Do you think we could get an "Eh-Team" at Ruckus - 1503, 188 and 610?

Considering 1503 didn't apply for IRI, I would be suprised to see that they don't register for Ruckus. I know that Spartillery isn't done and would love to improve on her finalist appearance at Waterloo earlier this year.

As for the possibility of an Eh-Team happening, well this is Ruckus, where strange things happen...

I have to agree. 610 and 188 are a formidable combo.

As are 48/610, 1507/188, 1507/610, 48/1507, 48/188 (partners last year at Ruckus), 48/3193, 1507/340, and any number of other combinations from teams who've applied and have yet to apply (I think 3193 from NEOFRAland is going to register, but not yet sure).

Regardless of alliance combos, it will be a fun, competitive time for all. I'm lookinG forwarD to it.
