Re: Einstein 2014
 

I'm totally ok with those predictions. Somebody has to be the first 4th bot to win CMP.

Re: Einstein 2014
 

If that's how the numbers work out then we will just have to accept it. :D

Re: Einstein 2014
 

1717 as a 4th robot? :confused:

Re: Einstein 2014
 

1717's 2 ball auto would warrant them 2nd robot status alone...

Re: Einstein 2014
 

You do realize how many teams have 2 ball autos this year, right?

Re: Einstein 2014
 

I think a 2 ball auton isnt going to be that uncommon. Regardless, teams shouldnt have that much trouble picking 3 robots that all can do a high autonomous, hot too.

Re: Einstein 2014
 

I'm not complaining, but this seems disproportionately Missourian.

Re: Einstein 2014
 

Stranger things have happened and if 1717's consistency issues come back, they could easily fall even lower. Don't get me wrong, I love 1717 and I think that they have the potential to be a seed captain.

However, scouting hiccups happen, unexpected teams seed high, teams under perform and then explode in the elims, etc. I'm sure no one expected the alliance of 1241, 610, and 1477 to ever happen last year. That's what makes an unpredictable game so unpredictable.

To give another example: People doubted that 217 would be the 24th pick in Newton last year.

Especially that Newton 1st seed, right? There are so many of you guys in Newton! I tried to not be disproportionately Texan, Californian, Michiganite, or Canadian. I guess somehow I moved to Missouri in the process...

Re: Einstein 2014
 

Since the predicted ranks came out Im gonna revise my predictions:

Archimedes:

1st Seed: 1477,2485,20,900

Curie:

2nd Seed:1241,254,1501,2478

Galileo:

6th Seed: 67,1717,2481,179

Newton:

2nd Seed: 971,1114,610,3147

Einstein:

Curie V Archimedes
Winner Curie

Newton V Galileo
Winner Newton

Curie V Newton
Winner and Champion Curie

Re: Einstein 2014
 

I thoroughly approve. Although the Einstein results could be significantly improved...... ;)

Re: Einstein 2014
 

If I'm not mistaken the 2013 world champs were 1241, 610 and 1477 :rolleyes:

Re: Einstein 2014
 

I don't know where you guys are all getting this idea that 20 is going to be the 16th selection on Archimedes. 20 is a top 5 team in the division, excelling at any role in the game. About the only thing they can't do is a point blank low goal high shot. Barring some kind of catastrophe I don't expect them to escape the first round.

Once EWCPCast airs I'll make predictions based on the bracket generated in the show. The show bracket ignores strength of schedule, carried teams, bad scouting so it may not be the most accurate but this is for fun anyway, right?

Re: Einstein 2014
 

iF 1717 doesn't want to be the fourth robot for Galileo, 1108 will be happy to do it. I'm really surprised we're not making anybody's lists. ?
