Team 340 is pumped to be playing in Newton once again!

I feel like it's our 8th time in the last 10 years or so. Newton feels like home!

Excited to be playing with some awesome Rochester area teams as well as some of the greatest teams in the world!

Skunk Works (1983) is looking forward to stinking it up again on Newton!

Looking forward to playing with many of our friends!

Nice to see that several teams that we have direct connections to are on the same field!! 190, 1806, 1678, 971

and all of our friends from the PNW 997, 2522, 3238, 4061, 1294


(Good luck to our District Alliance partners 1318 (Galileo) 4060 (Galileo) and 2907 (Archimedes) you guys rock!!!

16 and 368 have to be allianced because those two swerves on the same side of the field will be dangerous.

16, 368, and 1640, all 3 are swerve, that would be insane to watch.

my thoughts exactly!

we'll do our bests to duplicate this same effort on Galileo with 1717 and 2471. :)

Anyone else notice that closeness in name and number between 971 Spartan Robotics and 997 Spartan Robotics? Let's hope no one gets confused like at IRI 2013 when 3476 and 3467 got mixed up during alliance selection.

Wow great looking division!

I looked out our match list.. I noticed that we only have 8 matches?!?

I thought the schedule change was to accommodate a 10 match schedule.

Anyone else seeing this?

I know that more than likely the list will change when we arrive.

Just wondering.

Good luck to all the teams!

Aloha!

Are you looking at last year's match list? This year's will not be released until sometime at the event.

That explains it.. I thought it looked familiar :yikes:

It was generated from the scheduler app. I was jumping the gun and didn't notice the disclaimer on the bottom..

My bad

I'm really happy to see that we get to play with both 1678 and 971. Our team had so much fun playing against their alliance in the finals of Sacramento this year, happy to see that we get to play together again. Let's bring the title home for California this year!

I would love nothing more then to work with 16 again.

And I think if 16, 25, 1640 paired up it would be a killer alliance.

I will admit to being 368-ignorant until reading this post. Now after watching some video, that robot seems very... familiar. Now I wonder how they got a spy in our design meetings from way out there. :D That's one nice looking robot. It would be an honor to rock the swerve with a team like that.

4464 is excited to be a part of Newton this year. We're extremely grateful to have the opportunity to experience Worlds for the second time in two years; it's a huge inspiration to our students and an absolute blast!

Also, Newton is totally the smartest of the scientists who have fields named after them. Just sayin'. ;)

We might have done that last year. Our school was located in Des Moines.

That is Des Moines Washington though...

Oh and we moved the school over the summer to Tukwila, Washington...

We will be happy to support you though!! My daughter did her Residency in Internal Medicine and her Fellowship in Rheumatology in Iowa.... great teaching school.

This Pre-Scouting Sheet is super awesome!

Could we (do we need to) make a column for videos?

We did that in our scouting spreadsheet. We used reveal videos whenever possible, however, we needed to use match videos sometimes.

I could copy the links in that we have and people could replace/fix any links.

I guess someone though it would be funny to delete teams. What a shame it was nice while it lasted.


Update :
I see that it was fixed. If you want to mess with stuff like resorting. Make a copy of it then play around with it.

The ones in the spreadsheet are the Assist OPR from the event where the team had their highest overall OPR (from 1114's database). For the few teams I just looked at they seem to match Navid's but maybe he is using MaxAPR directly and that would be different for some teams.

I finished it in quite a hurry. I should be able to check it over soon, when I get back to a computer.

I used Max Event OPR to do the win loss calculations and Max Assist OPR to sort teams with the same QS.

Here is an attempt to produce a "strength of schedule" spreadsheet for Netwon. I add the OPRs of your 2 partners and subtract the OPRs of your 3 opponents and then total it for all matches. (Your own OPR is not included in the total.) The total values are then normalized from 1 (easiest schedule) to 100 (hardest schedule.) You can use either Max or Average OPR (I got the values from Ed Law's database.) The usual warnings about taking OPR too seriously apply.

You can also type in a team number and list all partners and opponents.

EDIT: I loaded a new version with updated OPRs.

Below is my attempt at compiling the "Must See" matches for Newton. I used a threshold of combined OPR of 400 (using "adjusted OPR"). There will be lots of other great matches, but I was trying to go for the top 10 or so.

There are 9 matches (out of 167) in Newton with a combined OPR score higher than 400. Match 33 is the highest combined score of 480.

They are:

Looks like there might be an error with 1138's OPR. They have a "Max" OPR of 1.0 but an "Average" OPR of 43.8. Not sure if that's an issue on your end or in Ed Law's spreadsheet, but it probably affects the SOS calculations.

I haven't checked if there are any others like that.

Even though matches are done for the day, the FMS data is not up to date on most divisions...

Archimedes (http://www2.usfirst.org/2014comp/events/Archimedes/rankings.html): Match Results and Rankings display current as of Match 120.

Curie (http://www2.usfirst.org/2014comp/events/Curie/rankings.html): The only division that is truly current, maybe the curse is spreading.

Galileo (http://www2.usfirst.org/2014comp/events/Galileo/rankings.html): Match results only current to 148, Rankings apparently say 150.

Newton Rankings (http://www2.usfirst.org/2014comp/events/Newton/rankings.html): Matches and Rankings say current as of Match 144.

1114 was put into goalie zone and 610 was suppose to do a two ball autonomous then 610 died on the field before they did the autonomous. The ball inside of 610 was called a dead ball but the ball they were just touching 1114 had to score. With only two robots actively working it was hard to do anything. 997 and 1114 was trying their hardest to stay in the game, but could not. This goes to show that in aerial assist every robot needs to be contributing.

Team Titanium (FRC 1986) wanted to express our gratitude to all of the staff and volunteers on the Newton division. We had a fantastic time playing with and against some of the greatest teams in the world. Aerial Assist took on a whole new kind of beauty with the caliber of teams there.

Special thanks to our alliance partners. 368, Team Kika Mana, 1806, S.W.A.T. and 3928, Team Neutrino for joining us on our run to the semi-finals. Our scouts thought each of you was a steal when we drafted you, and even more impressed with your performance on the field. Not many alliances can lose their captain (aluminum gear failure in the drive train, more diagnosis to come later) and still give the 1678, 1114, 1640 alliance a loss.

Speaking of that gear failure. Big thanks to all of the teams who searched their pits for a spare gear. That 70 tooth 1/2 inch hex bore was a bit tough to come by. We were swimming in close options due to the outpouring of help. FIRST is an amazing program when your opponents, and competing teams from other divisions divert resources during their own push for the championship to help you out.

Congratulations to 1678, 1114 and 1640 (and 5136) for winning the division and creating the most epic set of Einstein final matches I've ever witnessed. I smile every time I think about the greatness we saw there.

On behalf of team 1678, I would like to echo the comments of team 1986. It was an honour to play among some of the greats of FIRST and also with some very talented rookies.

A big thank you to our alliance partners 1114, 1640 and 5136. It was an exciting ride all the way to the finals on Einstein. On the way, we faced some stiff opposition, especially from the oustanding 4th seed alliance of 1986, 368, 1806 and 3928. I have to say it was a lot more fun playing with 368 at SVR than against you on Newton.

A special thank you to our long-time friends 971 who have done so much to help us get to where we are today. You picked a great alliance partner in our other good friends 1983 and provided a worthy opponent in the finals.

Finally, a big shout out to team 5310. You guys are awesome! Thanks so much for working with us and helping us on the way to the number one seed on Newton. I'm hoping this is just the beginning of a lasting friendship.

I took particular note of 971's scouting in Newton. Sitting with 1114's scouts during the draft we were impressed with the alliance they assembled (stealing our picks!) and knew they would be particularly dangerous. A mentor from Skunkworks said that the alliance had gotten 1983's top choices in each category. 971 proved the worth of its choices by reaching the finals from the #6 spot.

After we allied at Sacramento, we adopted several key elements of 971's scouting and draft method, and these were key to our success at Newton and Einstein. 971's system is the best student-led that I've encountered so far. Congrats to your success!

1640 is completely blown away and honored to have represented Newton on Einstein two years in a row now. Thank you so, so much to 1678 and 1114 for inviting us into your alliance. I mean this more significantly than just in alliance selection; you guys are great together and we're honored to have worked with you. Just experiencing your professional teamwork up close was a fantastically educational experience for all of us. And of course, thank you to 5136 for joining us. As I told your coach when the confetti fell, we've all experienced first hand how motivating the Einstein Rush is. You guys are going to be amazing! I know we won't be the only ones keeping an eye on you in the future.

Also congratulations to SWAT, Kika Mana, Neutrino and Titanium for rubbering us in the semifinals. After facing 1986 last year and working with 1806 and 386 (plus being trounced by 3928) in quals, we knew were in for a rough run. You guys are one heck of an alliance! Same to Coyotes, Nuts, Big Bang, Laser Spartan, Daisy and Skunkworks--it's an honor just to play against the legends.

But mostly, thank you to all the alliances on Newton for making my last run with 1640 so incredible, exciting, awe inspiring and not a little terrifying. You guys are great.

Special thanks to our alliance partners. 368, Team Kika Mana, 1806, S.W.A.T. and 3928, Team Neutrino for joining us on our run to the semi-finals.

Has it been a week already? Seems like it was just yesterday.

Anyhow, we'd like to express our mahalo to our alliance captain 1986 for picking us. You've always been a team we've admired from afar and it was great getting to play alongside you. It was also a blast playing with our partners 1806 and 3928. We had a great run and we're so glad everyone on our alliance got to make it onto the field for eliminations.

Congratulations to 1678, 1114, 1640, and 5136 for making it as Einstein Finalists. Of course, we were hoping you would win so that we could say we were eliminated by the Championship winners! Special shout out to 1640 for representing the swerve community out on Einstein :D. Great job also to our friends 1678 for coming out on top in Newton and showing folks that last year wasn't just a fluke - that you're a force to be reckoned with!

After getting all the videos set up and data for each match ready, just about all (sorry for missing a match or two) the Newton matches are going up on YouTube here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLk2gATc1wI5r53tGcoZff0iXyF1xgxRMu

Due to some SD card space issues, a bunch of the Thursday matches are up to 720p only, but the rest are up to 1080p. Filming from the nosebleeds seems to have removed a lot of the audience members and field personnel walking by that you see obscuring some other videos.

Enjoy!

We loved working with you at SVR this year! We almost got 254 there as well. Please contact us if you're coming back to SVR this year, and we'll figure out what support we can provide you for your trip (even if we don't end up at SVR next year.)

As a member of Team 1806, I’d like to thank everyone involved with world competitions last weekend including the staff, volunteers and teams. Worlds is always a great experience for the team and this year was no different.

A huge thanks goes out to our alliance partner and captain 1986, Team Titanium, for allowing us to qualify for Worlds with a wildcard and for selecting us for eliminations. We wouldn’t have been able to participate at St. Louis without them.

Thanks to 368, Team Kika Mana and 3928, Team Neutrino for working so well with us. It takes a special alliance to push it to three matches against World Finalists. Speaking of which, I’d like to personally congratulate teams 1678, 1114 and 1640 for being a fantastic representation of this year’s Newton division and also for pushing it to three matches against the World Champions!!!
