2005 Archimedes Division
 

OK, I'll start it.

Go Archimedes! At first glance, it seems as if we collectively have a big statistical advantage over the other divisions, but that of course means nothing. Let's all do our best to not believe the press and the hype and stay humble, lest we become overconfident and underestimate "the little guy" at the worst possible moment. That's exactly what *they* want Archimedes to do! ;) Sly dogs with their *reverse psychology*. :)

Little ol' Team 48 is buried deep in the weeds where more offensive predators boldly hunt their prey. May Our Lady of Blessed Defense guide us and protect us as we enter into honorable battle against the offensive monsters that are contained in our division!

It's on! Can't wait! Good luck!

Re: Archimedes Division
 

I thought it was random :confused:

Regardless, Archimedes will certianly be an excellent division. Only 9 days left!

Re: Archimedes Division
 

this is gonna be a tough division w/ 233, 71, 179 in here...good luck to everyone!!

it is tech. random but every few years it seems the powerhouses of that year just get in together...but we'll see who comes out on top over all.. cya around!!

Re: Archimedes Division
 

If there is a team who will be updating information on the Archimedes division live on their website, send me a PM or email, I am currently getting all the teams who are doing live updates on each field and will put the on 384's new Championship home page.

Re: Archimedes Division
 

This division sounds like a lot of fun and I'm happy to be in it, and I don't know about the robots but I defenetly hope we have the best spirit of all the divisons. Regardless of what teams go to represent Archimedes in the final rounds; let's all show the other divisions how loud we can be a the Georgia Dome.

:D Go Archimedes :D
Good Luck to all the Teams

Re: Archimedes Division
 

I just want to point out that the last two Chairman's award winners (103 and 254) we're in the same division as us). That is good news for 48, 65, 79, 233, 342, 812, 931, 957, and 1014 and unless FIRST overcomes it's low number bias (before last year no team over 200 had won the Chairman's award. Maybe this year they'll break 300) things look really good for 48, 65, 79 and 233. If you go by the unscientific method. :D

Re: Archimedes Division
 

Not to mention 173, 401, 245, and 122. Man, Archimedes is stacked this year. But dont count on the Arch winner winning it all. There are enough top-notch teams in each of the division for an amazing alliance to emerge and win it all. 45, 118, 67, 254, 365, 66 and 68 are all gonna try and give us one great fight for the championship! But itll be pretty hard to beat an alliance that can win Arch, especially if it has a combination of 233, 71, 173, and/or 179 in it.

Re: Archimedes Division
 

1027, 173 are both in this division and were on the same winning alliance seeds #1 and 2 going into the picking. I mean there are so many good teams I cant wait to watch some of the matchs.

Re: Archimedes Division
 

don't forget about us!!!!!! lol hey we are a force also. lol not to be big headed... but you do have to look at all of the other divisions also. they are pretty tough this year.

Re: Archimedes Division
 

WOW arch what a division.

This is gonna be fun. Newton will do their best......

Re: Archimedes Division
 

Looks like Archimedes is really on FIRE. I would like to point out some teams...

48, 65, 71, 79, 93, 107, 116, 173, 179, 217, 233, 716, 1114, 1251 are the teams that has caught my attention this season. This division is really going to have lots of crazy Tripple Play. Arefin will be there to watch these teams in action. Good luck to all teams out there.

Re: Archimedes Division
 

There are great teams in each division, but the thing that stands out most about Archimedes is depth. If you made a dream alliance in each division, it would be great, but I think Archimedes has a bit of an advantage with realistic alliance picking.

24 Archimedes teams in the elimination rounds. 25 Archimedes teams won regionals.

I can't wait.

Re: Archimedes Division
 

I have to say I'm SOO honored and excited to be in such a great division, sure to have some of the best matches!!!:D

Re: Archimedes Division
 

You may have an excellent division but watch out for Galileo! My bets are on a Archimedes vs. Galileo finals and that should be incredible to watch. Good luck to all the teams!
