Re: Championship Waitlist

The random number generator seems stuck on local STL teams. I wonder what the defining radius is.

Code:

function getRandomCity() {

        // Chosen by throwing a fair dart at a map

        return "St. Louis";

I'm very glad to see 834 qualified. It was very unfortunate that teams didn't value low goaling/ball manipulation skills enough in MAR during playoffs, as they averaged over 6 low goals/match for their last 6 matches.

Re: Championship Waitlist

Why do they keep putting some of the same teams on the list that were already removed? I have seen at least 3 that have been pulled twice. Wish they would just pull our number, we are ready to go.

Whatever they are using to select teams probably does not remove all drawings of the team.

Re: Championship Waitlist

Thought that might be it. Seems that after a team declines that all there "tickets" should be removed. It would be annoying to have to keep declining every day because your number keeps coming up.

Why would a team be dropped off the list?:mad:

Only if they declined( to my knowledge). Or if FIRST made a mistake.

Re: Championship Waitlist

I feel like FIRST is cutting it a little close with their plan to release divisions AND schedules tomorrow. Perhaps it's just me but I think a lot of these "add, wait 24 hours, drop, repeat" slowdowns could be avoided if FIRST were to send out a refresher email to all the waitlist teams perhaps over last weekend saying "hey, we know you're signed up for the waitlist, but please reply if your team would actually be able to attend at this late hour" and adjust the list accordingly.

All this adding and dropping from the list is agonizing. I know my team doesn't really have the best chances of making the list, but hey, what else am I going to do with the week off from school due to the entire city flooding?

Re: Championship Waitlist

IIRC... they have released divisions in the past and still made minor adds/dels to the team lists without changing who is already in each division.

Correct. This happened last year I believe.

Re: Championship Waitlist

Does anyone know if FIRST plans to have 76 teams per division as they did last year or if they plan to have just 75 (i.e. these 600 teams are the teams with possible drops/adds as they or is FIRST sitting on 8 more golden tickets they haven't yet put on the list just yet)?

Overclocked is still hoping against hope to get an invite and it feels less unseemly to hope for a newly opened slot than to hope one of the teams on the list has to drop out...
