Wow, I missed that.

That finishes up most of the drafting. Marc, Holtzman, and Greg can draft when they want. Trading is open until the night before Kickoff at 11:59 PM.

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 

Holtzman texted me, he wants 1002.

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 

I'll take our partners from NYC last year, 555.

To finish out the league i ask you when did Christopher Columbus sail the ocean blue?.....that would be 1492

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 

I'm going to change my last pick from team 340 to team 135

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 

I have a trade request from Alex Cromier.
He wants 1126 from me and I get 469.
Any problems?

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 

Well, the intent was to finish all trading/drafting/plotting/scheming/etc. before Kickoff, then let the chips fall where they may. Now that people have been capable of seeing the robots (especially at this phase of the season), I'm not too keen on it.

Anyone else want to provide some input?

At first I didn't have a problem with it, but you have a great point.
Now, I agree with Billfred.
It just doesn't sit right.

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 

I have to agree with you Billfred. It did state in the rules all trading was to go on before Kickoff. Because the point of the pre-season FF is to go with teams you think will build a good robot, not teams you have seen that have good robots now.

And Alex only wants 1126 cause he thinks us and them are going to win FLR. Alex stop counting your chickens before they hatch, you never know who is going to win.

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 

All the more reason to let him have them. :p

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 

SO IT'S ON SOON!!! Let's see who wil win. Who ya htink has the best Chance!!?

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 

Good question.

Cory seems to have a pretty balanced setup with his picks (look here for a memory-jogger), but Dez seems to have the two most-talked-about teams on ChiefDelphi between 1114 and 61. (We won't go into why, but needless to say a lot of eyes will be upon them.) I have to say, though--if Beatty's had time enough to make all those videos, then I'm gonna be collecting a heck of a lot of points by the end of this shin-dig.

That said, right now I wouldn't count anyone out. We've got five weeks of regionals plus a Championship to get through. I'll do my best to post updates after each week of competition, but just remember it's 96 teams I have to keep track of. :)

i know i got 3 out of my 4 bots already posted on cd and making a lot of people worry too.

Re: 2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!
 

I'm feeling pretty good about my lineup. ;)

But with all the tough competition I'm sure someone will give me a run for my money.
