This. We thought we were doing everyone a favor...

Nothing personal (this would apply to me too), but if someone doesn't know at least 15 teams that they think deserve to be in a top 25, then their vote will probably hurt the rankings more than it will help.

I guess my worry is that it's only week 1. By week 1 I've only seen 40 teams, and I don't remember all of them because not all of them were exactly memorable. I remember maybe 10, and even so, it's hard to rank all 10 in an order (especially by an overall ranking.)

While the point that "pick 5" might turn into the "FRC top 5", I don't think that's a valid issue in the first couple weeks. Everyone is coming from different districts and has seen different robots.

In the later works it may be more reasonable to pick more than one, or have a poll based on what was already submitted.

But that's just my opinion.

I usually hold off until week 3 or 4 to start voting. Once I've seen archived match videos, gone to regionals on weeks we don't compete, and watch webcasts, I feel like I get a good sense of the teams out there and start voting.

I don't know if this thread is really meant for campaigning, but 341 and 1218 were stellar this weekend. It was clear from the moment I saw these teams in person that they would be in the finals/win. If you don't believe me, go look at the OPR for both. The only thing they didn't do together was the 3-bot balance. They deserve some cred.

If you run out of teams to rank, pick a few from this thread: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...hreadid=104208

I would ask you to vote each week because even if you voted solely based on teams you saw in Michigan, it would balance out the people who are voting just based on the robots they saw in Hartsboro, or Alamo, or KC.

I never thought about it like that. I'll try to throw together a list and submit it tomorrow.

During week 2 voting, are you going to only allow teams that competed week 2 or teams that have competed week 1 as well?

Once a team has played, they are then eligible to be voted for each week thereafter.

Has the voting closed? Or is anyone else having trouble submitting a list?

Voting has not closed yet. I just submitted a test submission and everything seems to be running properly. What browswer do you use? I use Firefox, and everything is good. Make sure you have the correct link- http://www.frctop25.com/VoterPage.html
Thank you for your willingness to vote! If there's any further problems, please PM me! Thanks!

I believe that is kind of the point... If you can't find 15, then your vote is without context of the rest of the events that have happened.

Thank you to everyone who has voted this week! The amount of submissions we have had is by far the most we've ever received in a single week.

If you haven't voted yet, this is a reminder that voting closes tomorrow at 6pm EST.

Thank you all for your participation and we can't wait to share the results with you on Wednesday night!

Where are you doing the show? Tice's place or your place?
