According to the tracker it went to someone with no affiliation to a team.

That's really odd... The FIRST Website just has a blank spot next to Rookie All-Star.

If I had to guess, it's because there was only one rookie at this event. I don't think I've ever seen an event where a rookie won all three rookie awards. Moreover, I don't think FIRST wanted to give a team an instant spot at championships by default.

Now hear this. Now hear this.

The Blue Alliance may show teams attending events when the FIRST site does not, and vice versa. The Season Long Fantasy FIRST League only uses the official FIRST lists. Therefore, all claims for 217 in St. Joseph are denied until someone can post an official FIRST list for St. Joseph with 217 on it.

That is all.

I am really happy with all your patience with FF this week to everyone, I know it must be frustrating to not have the events scored quickly, and now especially before the next week, I will try my best to get them all scored tonight as I just got back from South Florida with my team. I will make sure this does not happen for the remainder of the season and will be sure to have this week scored expediently.

Now I will continue scoring the week 5 events, and in order to expedite the drafting for MAR and FiM I will score and post the rankings for each event the night that the districts finish, so Saturday for FiM and Sunday for MAR



Do you mean the listings for most points in the district (IE how the districts give them points) or do you want something from me the statement confused me

Unfortunately I will not be able to run either draft as I will be traveling to Ypsilanti that night.

FiM teams have until noon tomorrow to sign up. So Monday or Tuesday night would work. You would also be available to run the draft.

(Odds have 9FF teams, evens have 8 FF teams thus the 2 additional picks). Odds will already have the bias of the higher scoring league players thus a lower probability of a good pick sneaking through (IE 1v2, 3v4,....). Just my opinion, this would help even out the slight shift of higher scorers, and make #1 the more desireable position as opposed to #2 (which is currently a superior position).

Las Vegas was drafted as 1 tier but there is not enough teams for everyone to have 3 teams so what do I do?

If it were up to me, I'd say to compute the median score of a team at the event and apply that in any remaining hole. (Could also do mode; I wouldn't use mean for this.)

Is this the standard procedure or just a suggestion because if it is the latter I will wait to hear from Ed before doing anything

Originally Posted by EricH (Post 1261494)

That's not quite the way I'd do it. I've had drafts run out of teams (with no open slots) after randomization before, but not to the point of open slots.
