Re: New usfirst.org site for championships

one of the main reasons I love this new layout is our team is located in the bottom left corner of the picture....

Does 12-2:30 for division elims sound slightly optimistic to anyone else?

I noticed that, too. I also noticed that one of the titles on the homepage was labelled "Sport for the mind," despite one of their most commonly used tag lines being "The varsity sport for the mind." On top of that, the former is even worse of a fragment than the latter one was!

They may be abbreviating it in some cases - although I like the original better. See this bus.

very optimistic it would be a miracle if it works out like that.

Why? It's a maximum of 21 matches, and might be as few as 14. Even with a six minute cycle time, plus occasional "field timeouts" when alliances have consecutive matches, it almost seems like they're scheduling more time than necessary.

If every round were to use all three matches, and if each alliance used its time out, it might run long. But I don't think that's very likely.

My experience with Regionals is that the elims would run from about 1-4 in the afternoon. I just thought 2.5 hours is a little shorter than the typical FRC tournament. Plus, you're scheduling for all 4 divisions, so I would assume at least one would run longer.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 02:58.
