Re: 2012 Alliance Selection Results
 

Why would 1583 decline and not be in eliminations??

Re: 2012 Alliance Selection Results
 

Their representative was not fully aware of the rules regarding alliance selections. Although the emcee did go over the rules right before alliance selections, they thought they were able to decline and join another alliance.

Re: 2012 Alliance Selection Results
 

Is it possible they were broken and were trying to do the alliance a favor?

Re: 2012 Alliance Selection Results
 

I've seen a few teams decline over the past 10 years for the following reasons: thought they could get picked again, wanted to become their own captain but number 8 team was never picked, had to leave early, robot was dead, and a few other random ones.

Very interesting world alliance selections are.

Re: 2012 Alliance Selection Results
 

As one of the two FTA-A's at the Colorado Regional this weekend, I can say with full confidence that they were not broken. 1977 selected 1332 with their first pick, and then selected 1583 with their second pick. The representative from 1583 declined the selection, to the surprise of everyone in the arena, and then went back in line to wait to be picked again.

The 5th ranked alliance then selected 1361, and selections progressed as normal. A couple of selections later, after looking at the rules along with the head referee, the MC announced to the audience that no, 1583 could not be selected again because they had declined a selection. The look of shock and horror that was present on the representative's face made it clear that he did not know at the time what he had done by declining the selection.

Throughout the regional, while 1583 was not the best robot present, they were a very consistent team that worked well and never broke down through the 11 matches they played over the previous two days.

Re: 2012 Alliance Selection Results
 

365 declined 1089.

Re: 2012 Alliance Selection Results
 

I'm pretty sure that 1716 picked 1736 first, and 930 was the second. Also, 1732 declined 1716.
