Re: Michigan State Championship

Re: Michigan State Championship

With 16 alliances, what is the format for the first round of playoffs? Will there be a complete "Eighth-finals" round with the top 8 alliances moving on to a traditional "Quarter-finals" round, or will the top 4 alliances move straight to the Semi-finals? Perhaps something different?

It's spelled out in the latest team update but basically yes, there will be 2-match "octofinals." 8 alliances with advance and from there it will be a regular tournament.

Also, if you can't see both fields from a typical seat, then what are the teams in the stands going to do? Are the teams going to be moving from one side of the arena to the other to be able to watch their matches. "Hey everyone, our next match is odd, so let's get up and move to the other side of the arena."

I don't think you'll have a problem seeing both fields from even the worst seat in the house. I will warn that even a close field feels far away (think how worlds feels).

Check out the latest team update where the "Octofinals" are detailed. As a note, no team will have to switch fields during the Octofinals, and we will collapse down to one field starting with Quarter Finals.

While I'm here I also wanted to mention that we have a full practice field with electronics just like at worlds plus 3 district practice fields. Details on practices matches will be available at the event. We are still one event so all teams will play on both fields for qualifications. It will be an even/odd split.

Does anyone know if there will be second Dean's List interviews and where the schedule is?

Match 189 looks like a fun one for us with 503, 548 and 573 all on a alliance. Playing with 3641 again in 58 will be fun too.

Re: Michigan State Championship

Match 115 should be VERY Good...

Re: Michigan State Championship

Match 143 looks like it could be very high scoring!

That and we'll get to see the 2137-548 can race round two!

Re: Michigan State Championship

It looks like #135 and 205 should be good ones for us but they all have great promise as all these teams that made it this far are good or they wouldn't be there. I just know some better than others.
