Anyone know the status of another scrimmage being run with a MAR field this year? I'm pretty sure Watchung High School held it in 2014.

I saw in the Week 0 thread that 303 was tentatively planning to host one on their practice field, though I don't know any of the details. I would imagine that 41 will host one again this year, they've been doing it for a while now.

Also, 3 more teams have registered for North Brunswick as a third event:
  • 225
  • 321
  • 4281

According to MORT's facebook page they're going to the Pine Tree District in New England for week 3.

Currently there are twelve teams signed up for three MAR districts (There were 10 last year). Ten of those teams will be going to North Brunswick for their third event.

Additionally, we lost a rookie. The homeschool team (5435) from Hamilton, NJ has dropped out of both of their districts.

It seems like CD moved us from a MAR specific subforum to a District event subforum. This thread wasn't showing up in my portal so I was missing it for a few weeks.

Do we know of any other team signed up for inter-district play besides MORT? I thought there might be more teams willing to mix things up.

It seems like there are two other MAR teams playing in New England.

Re: 2015 MAR Season
 
Here's what I saw from a quick glance through the events

11 - Pine Tree
102 - UMass - Dartmouth
316 - Pioneer Valley
1811 - UMass - Darmouth
3314 - Waterbury

That's A LOT of teams leaving the district

Congratulations to 2016 on their EI win in South Florida. That means the first points slot at MAR Champs will be consumed, unless they qualify again through MAR.

In light of the issues with reporting Week 1 event data, I created a rankings spreadsheet with the event data from Horsham and an overall rankings display for Week 1. While the rankings should be roughly accurate, I did the math for determining qualification ranking points by hand so take the exact numbers with a grain of salt (or if somebody else has more exact numbers, let me know)

Link to Rankings

EDIT: Updated with more accurate point values (Thanks Antonio). It seems like the official event data is already starting to come in anyway.

Re: 2015 MAR Season
 
Most of the teams competing at regionals are done, with only 341 (Vegas), 11 (Hawaii) and 4575 (Queen City) still having to compete. Currently 2016 (South Florida EI), 1923 (Tech Valley EI) and 2590 (Montreal Winner) have claimed spots in St.Louis, but I expect one of 11, 341 and 4575 to qualify in the next two weeks.

In other news, I absolutely love the new ranking website. It's so easy to use and having up to date numbers without all of the work I did last year is great.

Re: 2015 MAR Season
 
A few additional MAR teams have registered for the championship via the wait list, those being teams 41, 203, and 223.

Re: 2015 MAR Season
 
According to this blog post MAR will be sending 25 teams plus the pre-qualified teams and waitlist teams.

Does this mean that, in addition to the 8 slots taken up by the Winning Alliance, Chairmans*2, EI*2, and RAS, there will be 17 points slots (up from last year's 10)?

Seeing the mathematical locks/bubble teams/predictions eased my anxiety a bunch of times though :rolleyes:

Well then here's the teams that are a mathematical lock for Lehigh. Everybody above 66 points is a lock.

Code:
225 - TechFire
2607 - The Fighting RoboVikings
1403 - Cougar Robotics
1640 - Sab-BOT-age
1676 - The Pascack PI-oneers
56 - R.O.B.B.E.
1647 - Iron Devils
1218 - Vulcan Robotics
219 - Team Impact
2016 - Mighty Monkey Wrenches
272 - Cyber-Crusaders
11 - MORT
75 - RoboRaiders
203 - One TUFF Team (Team United for...
316 - LuNaTeCs
365 - Miracle Workerz
1143 - Cruzin' Comets
5407 - Wolfpack Robotics
293 - Team S.P.I.K.E.
3974 - E=mCD
1228 - RoboTribe
1712 - Dawgma
321 - RoboLancers
25 - Raider Robotix
1811 - FRESH
222 - Tigertrons
2559 - Normality Zero
3142 - Aperture
2590 - Nemesis
2191 - Flux Core
1089 - Team Mercury
869 - Power Cord 869
87 - Red Devils
Only the 25 teams at NB are completing for points, so the top 33 (those teams) are in. That assumes that all CA teams are above the cutoff, which probably isn't true this year.

Interestingly enough, the points based approach I used in past years gives the exact same set of teams.

I expect the cutoff to be around 55-57 points.

I ran the numbers for the teams definitely qualified and definitely not qualified. The threshold will lie between 53 and 70 points, though much higher than 60 is very unlikely.
I've attached my analysis spreadsheet.

EDIT: Noticed an error, minimum threshold 56 -> 53, fixed spreadsheet attached.

Also want to point out that there are now 5 MAR teams registered for champs off of the wait-list (41, 102, 203, 223, 1391)

Can someone refresh my memory, do wait list teams take MAR spots away from teams qualifying for St. Louis based on points following Lehigh?
