There's a reason we still play the matches:cool:

I think they did it to gain an advantage over 2056. In my mind they would have had a better alliance with 188, but they accepted 3161 so that 2056 wouldn't get them. Good call? We'll find out.

I'm having a hard time with 2056 declining 1241 from so low. I think the previous commenter is correct, they're playing with fire.

We didn't go into selections without any kind of discussion about who we wanted, you know... :)

Guess they're gonna score like mad then triple balance. it could take them to the finals.

Just triple balanced. 2056 sent 2200 to play defense and had 4001 act as a deadweight.

Re: 2012 Greater Toronto Regional West

I'm fully aware that strong teams like 3161, 1114, and 2056 all have lots of strategy and discussions. I've watched them all play for the last 10 years, and have gained a pretty good handle on strategy. I can usually predict picks and declines with a reasonable level of accuracy. I'm a little surprised by a few decisions here is all, including 188's pick of us.

SF2.1... Shouldnt 1241 have gotten 49pt penalty for interfering with the blue alliances triple?

Re: 2012 Greater Toronto Regional West

The feed died. HELP! We just noticed that 1241/907's alliance won a match against 2056 and want to watch.

Edit: back, thanks 2200!

Actually, that's a Red Card on top of the T-foul and balanced bridge if balancing is interfered with.

I didn't see the match, so I can't comment either way. Though I would guess that someone might be asking the ref anyway.

Stream is back. I didn't see the alleged interfering, was there a call?

Re: 2012 Greater Toronto Regional West

EDIT:
It's 2056 vs 1114!

Not to be disrespectful to the other teams, it's actually 3161/1114/2634 vs 2056/4001/2200. 1st vs 6th.

I haven't watched Canada too carefully, but I think any qualification matches between 2056 and 1114 has gone 1114's way, and they are the stronger alliance, have a slightly more consistent triple and a better auto. However, 2200 and 4001 have played some great defence in the semis, so they might pose a threat that the 1st seed haven't seen before.

I'm looking forward to it.

Defintiely! I think this has been something we have all been waiting for. 1114 and 2056 split, and then end up against each other. Will 2056's record be toppled?
