I hope for a good competition for my teams and the other teams there, and a special hope that my dads truck doesn't get stolen again! Hahaha. Good luck to all! Cant wait to watch.

Did anyone notice the match schedule? 2056 and 1114 are together twice. Match 14 and match 20. Its looking good for a new record breaking high score.

Be sure to watch the webcast! We're broadcasting both full field and a mixed video stream. http://www.watchfirstnow.com/live

Did anyone see the co-op stack that wasn't counted in match #3? It is at about 2:07:30 in the Waterloo normal field stream (here). I know of the "3-second of free-standing", but do those 3 seconds have to occur DURING the match and can't be after the ending of the match? The stack was clearly finished before the end of the match, and didn't seem to have anything wrong with it, but wasn't counted on the final score.
It did look like there was a possibility of the stack being supported by one of the grey totes next to it, but wouldn't there still be a co-op SET counted?
Does anyone have an idea of why this might have happened?

They clarified afterwards that the coop stack did count.

That's good. It just didn't show up with the "final" score and what was immediately posted (they probably announced it over the speakers, but I'm watching the stream muted). I thought that co-op stack was pretty incredible because it seemed it was started at ~15 seconds from the end, and 2056 put the 3 on at about 5 seconds; just in time.

How are 1114 and 2056 partners in back-to-back qualification matches?

There are 30 teams in attendance, and each team gets 13 qual matches. That means there are 26 spots for partners...

Given that who you are competing "against" doesn't matter this year, why would the match making algorithm possibly come up with a schedule with this quirk?

Last year, at a 36-team event, we played against 107 in three consecutive matches.

Waterloo is always fun to watch...

e.g. QM16, 1676,2702,1285 and 5406 4917 1334 just put up 138 and 148 points during day 1 of qualifications.

Dat intensity.

The schedule isn't random, though. There are parameters that are used by FMS to generate the schedule. Things like minimum turnaround time for teams between matches can make it difficult to get a full sampling of alliance combinations.
