2 years ago, it came out the Thursday after the last regionals. Last year it came out the second Monday after the last regionals.

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
well if that list doesn't change, 1114 and 1503 are in the same division. Watch out

If the aliances end up like this, Archimedes looks like it might be the strongest division by a lot.

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
ok this is going to sound like a stupid question...but let's say that they make the divisions...and it goes

A C G N
1 2 4 5


and so on...and then team 3 qualifies and registers...do they go inbetween 2 and 4 like they're numerically supposed to, or are they randomly assigned to another division?

Allison K 02-04-2006 00:16

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
They get added in numerical order. That's why people have been continually updating the list, because every time a new team is added it changes.

Divisions won't be assigned until registration for Atlanta is closed.

They'd bump 4 to Newton and 5 to Archimedes so it would become

A C G N
1 2 3 4
5

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
Thanks for the speedy respones...so i'm also assuming that these lists are comprised of teams that qualified, not necessarily going...for example

team 433 won (and most deservedly so) the EI at Philly today, and since registration is closed on Tuesday (correct me if I'm wrong) then they won't be going to atlanta, and thus the lists will shift again...so i guess we'll just have to wait and see when registration closes.

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
I thought teams had 2 weeks to register. I know when we won SVR back in 2004 that's what we had, and we needed all of it to scrounge up the money.

I highly doubt that 254/968 1114/1503/1680 or 494/70 end up in the same division.

Seeing as 1680 isn't on the list yet, at least 1/3 of your prediction will be true.

Once FIRST officially releases the divisions, the teams don't get added in the middle. The get added at the end. In your example, team 3 would get added to A. The next team would get added to C.

A C G N
1 2 4 5
3

Like Joey Gannon said, the Divisions won't come out until registration closes, so there may be no changes, or if there is a team added from the waiting list, it won't mess everyone up.

Six more teams added today. 1114, 1503, and 1680 are all in separate divisions. 254 and 968 are separate, but 70 and 494 are together. The fourth division looks to be the strongest.

How do you know FIRST will select divisions this way?

I really hope FIRST has some creativity and mixes up the division selection this year. They could do it a number of ways:

ABCD

1st 10 (or another number) are in 1 division, next 10 in another, next 10 in another, next 10 in another

Geographically: west, east, south, north

Team colors: Red & Orange, Yellow & Green, Blue & Indigo, Violet & Black
(that would be HILARIOUS!!)

Time in FIRST: 15-10 years, 9-6 years, 5-3 years, 2-1 years

Team names: All teams with "Robo" in one division, all teams with "Techno" in another, All teams with "bot" in the third, and the rest for others. OK... that would not work too well.

Random selection, Wednesday night @ Championships: We all gather in the dome while Dean and Woodie draw numbers from a lotto machine. Numbers go on the big screen and teams cheer. Forklifts go crazy in the pits shuffling crates back and forth. Mass hysteria ensues. Silliness prevails.

The 4 Field m/c's are "team captains". They pick which teams are in their divisions, like on the elementary school playground before a kickball game. The last team picked in each division automatically is partnered with the #1 seed in the finals.

oh... this is getting fun...

FIRST counts up the number of calls and emails from each team. The teams with the most calls and emails asking for assistance all get placed into one division, as the teams who never call or email are placed in another. Teams who call only sometimes are put into two other divisions. The one division with all of the "communicators" has a riot midway through the Q matches on Friday.

All Chairman's Award finalists, spirit award winners, and teams with WFFA winners are placed in the same division. All other teams are strewn about the three remaining divisions. The CA, spirit, and WFFA division winners are determined by which teams are the loudest and the most helpful. The matches in this division stop midway through Friday, as everyone forms a group hug and then proceeds to do the Cha Cha Slide for the rest of the day.

... or, they can just do the ABCD method.

We can put them in with the red & orange division.

Also... teams with multi-colors (tie dye, rainbow, etc.) must play in all divisions in this scenario. That should be no problem.

Man it'd be nice if my two teams were in the same division... leave less running between pits for me. Looks like chances are slim though.

The Firebirds were scrambling for the money to register for the championships, but the school graciously offered to cover the registration fee on Tuesday (today) provided they promise to reimburse the money. I heard some good news from Karen (on 433) that they found an additional sponsor who will hopefully be able to reimburse the school for the registration fee. So the Firebirds will most definitely be at Atlanta this month! :D (even though I won't attending with the team, I'm really siked for them; I'll be with them in spirit)

personally i would like to see FIRST just to 2 at a time. Like AABBCCDD etc. There are too many teams that are right next to each other in numerical sequence that never get to play each other.

like when i was on 73 we always were with HOT (67) but never with beaty (71)...it would just help mix things up a bit and it isn't that hard to implement

uhoh, i dont really do much in the rumor mill but.

I see one dominate team in the first division. we shall see if they stay that way.

I was told, by a very reliable source (of course, I cannot disclose the name :ahh: ), that is was going to be by geographic location, with the N - S- E - W division borders determined by the locations of teams.

I understand that this decision has been made because the continual debate on which region is toughest is eating up too much space on Chief Delphi and makes the moderators work soo hard editing obsenities from posts. So, Brandon Martus convinced Woody and Dean to resolve it once and for all by having a showdown in the finals. This will finally answer the question on the playing field.

To make it a real test of the best, AFTER the division finals, the winning alliance captain can then re-select the other two teams to compete for the Championship out of everyone in their division. And, if they are truly full of GP, they could even give their captaincy to another team if they felt that would provide the BEST - BEST alliance for the Einstein matches.

It's all true, or Andy Baker is not my cousin. :)

very interesting. if divsions were picked by region, wouldnt it be like a super regional? most of the teams you compete aganst would be teams you saw during regionals (unless you went to a different region ie. 233 to boston). and where do international teams fit in

then if you were to :

technically, wouldnt the winning alliance be the bst in their division? y would they want to change the alliance?

ps. i wouldnt mind having divsional championships

I agree with Andy. Lets mix it up.

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
i hope first mixes things up but there is a saying if it is not broken do not fix it. Besides at the reagionals i went to i heard a bunch of teams complain about who they were with and against. I think someone from 48 talked about how he wished he was with or against us once.

Ah yes, that would have been me. We never faced or allied with 25 at New Jersey. We found that to be...disappointing.

Even in later regionals, we faced teams multiple times while not ever seeing others. I still think this can be improved upon.

Match list generation is a completely separate topic from the divisional selection criteria, because no matter which teams populate the division, the problem of facing teams multiple times while never seeing others will still be there.

I know a certain Canadian UFH and Head Referee who created a certain match list generation routine that was used very briefly in a few competitions but was then inexplicably discarded. His algorithm worked very well to reduce and/or eliminate the problems mentioned above. I have no idea why FIRST chose to abandon it.

There has been a lot of discussion about "Random" Match List Generation on this forum , tough issue with no easy answer.

maybe, but not always - the winning alliance was the best combination of three teams from the way the draft is set up, but not necessarily the three "best" teams in the division to go forward and play. Think about it like Little League baseball. There is a season champion team, but then players from all of the teams become the all-stars.


Its all in fun, anyway.

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
great, now if all the triplets are on one feild......ALL of them will most likely go to Eninstine......

how would a six feild system work

5 Divisions?????

and if the feilds are based on regions....then where do Great Britin, Brizil, Mexico, Equador, and Isreal fall into......

if the last statement is true.......i mean divisions by region..... that means most likely the first will be true as welll

This means trouble.......BIG TROUBLE
(If this is true)

6 divisions wouldn't really work. What would you do when it came time for the finals? Since 6 is not a power of 2, you would have to give 2 division champs byes. How would you figure out which two wouldn't have to play the first round?

Now 8 divisions...

He was actually referring to the amount of fields they have set up on the floor of the Georgia Dome. There are 4 for the 4 FRC divisions, one for Einstein (the finals and awards are done here) and one area for FLL and FVC.

Lord have mercy! I just spent a good portion of the night trying to organize the divisions by east, west, north and south like Andy suggested. Waaaay too many East Coast and Northern (basically Midwestern) teams to pull off.
That was a complete waste of time. :rolleyes:

Now 8 divisions...

They could just extend the Einstein play. Have a round robin style ranking system for the alliances, the top 2 ranked alliance then get round 1 byes int he elimination rounds. Who wouldn't want more awesome play on the Einstein field?

Jon Jack 05-04-2006 00:44

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
I wonder if FIRST would want to build an extra playing field. After all they already have 8 playing fields built, and if they built 1 more they could make each of the 8 playing fields a division with the new field used a the Einstein field. This way the amount of teams playing on Einstein is a power of 2. Also, each division would only be about 43 or so teams.

Then again would there be enough space on the floor of the GD to hold 8 playing fields?

FIRST actually has 10 fields.

I think we will see the same old system, 4 divisions, ABCD style.

Einstien is the name of the field for finals. Division winners, an alliance each from Archimedes, Curie, Galileo and Newton, all compete on Einstien for the Championship Winners title. Semifinals between the four divisions, then two left to go for the gold!

To add to what Sam said, Einstein is also where Opening and Closing cermonies take place.

The Pit Map on the First's web site still shows 4 divisions, but there is a red and a blue section for each. So it will be 4 or 8 fields.

Just noticed that. Probably four divisions. Red/Blue might be part of the location system for the volunteers or for station setup on the field. Who knows.

315 teams and counting. My list has shifted at least four times today.

Peter Matteson 05-04-2006 14:50

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
I'm now thinking they'll do divisions like the pits at the events I've been to this year.

Highest and lowest numbers in A
2nd Highest and 2nd lowest numbers in B
3rd Highest and 3rd lowest numbers in C
etc...

Won't be a huge shift if they do it but something like that or a serpentine type of division selection would be nice.

I don't know if this is a fluke on the first website or not but the team list for the championship is no longer ordered by team number. It appears it is in some random order and if you try to sort by team number it won't let you.

once in a while the first website does that but it will fix itself in a little bit

Last year it was released on the Monday of the week before the Championship. So I'm expecting it a week from this coming Monday, on April 17th.

This should interest some peope...

I saw this thread about offensive power ranking and decided to generate the rankings for each of the four divisions.

The four attached files contain the offensive rating of all the teams (sorted by team number and rank) and the average offensive rating for the corresponding four divisions. The offensive power ranking does not perfectly show the true strength of a team but it does give an indication.

Newton (not suprisingly) has the highest average rating but it also has the highest number of unrated teams. Galileo is the weakest division according to the average offensive rating.

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
As much as all this data is awesome, please use it with caution. If the data from the currently unrecorded regionals came through I think a lot would change.

I do appreciate everyone putting this data together! - but just keep in mind that a lot of teams do a lot better after their first regional (at least in our case)...and the biggest regional on the planet (GTA) is unrecorded.

$0.02 :rolleyes:

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
Interesting thing (stop me if you've heard this one) - if you go to last year's championship page on first's website:

http://www.usfirst.org/robotics/2005/chevents.htm

And click on the pages with the listings for the divisions, you'll see a list of teams, including some with numbers in the 1900's. I may be mistaken, but I think that new teams this year have numbers over 1750 or so, leading me to believe that, even if they are still in flux, the official FIRST division lists are up!

Of course, I could be wrong, it could be some weird internet fluke.

You may have something here. My team last year 301 was in Curie. In the team list it is no longer there. This means that the lists have been updated. Still according to FIRST deadline sheet final payments are not due until April 14, so more team could still be added and the list is probably not finalized yet.

George A. 10-04-2006 14:21

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
I definatly think that you have something there...because 11 was in Newton last year (which is the 2005 list) but that list has teams that weren't in our division yet...so I'm thinking those are the divisions...but like someone said before, we have to wait till registration closes until it's official...but good job on finding that!

Here are some quick spreadsheets. This "rumor" seems very plausible based upon what you see on the website, but you still can't count on it being 100% true. Great detective work, Kris! More to discuss!

My team is right where they should be on div list. THey might be testing the setup.

They might be messing with us. Who knows with them sometimes. :)

330 Registered and 10 pending.

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
Good work, Kris.

Divisional assignments look to be ABCD... yawn.

Oh, well. If FIRST did it a different way, some teams would email/call and complain like this:

(say this in a good witch voice, like Carol Kane in the Princess Bride)

"You did ABCD division selection the last 2 years, and this year it is DIFFERENT!! Why did you do that to us? aaaahhh! I'm melting!"

No... no one ever does that to the Team Support folks at FIRST!

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
Wow, awesome find, if this list holds true, 67 will move from Newton, where we've been since divisions started, to Archimedes; which looks to be a very competitive division as well! Too bad Sir Charles will probably be on Newton if he returns. :p

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
Oh man.. all the divisions look pretty even. Curie and Gal look to have a little more horsepower behind them though.

But another thing.. none of the triplets are together and 25 fills the 4th division. This should be interesting.

111 + 1114 ?
Deadly or just downright confusing?!

Definetley deadly. I've seen them both apart, together would just be something spectacular.

I found the REAL LIST!!!

go to last years championship page, click on one of the divisions team list, lool at the link for the sequence 2005, change it to 2006 and well....it's there, im saving the pages so first doesn't decide all of a sudden to take them off.

You are 1 hour and 1 minute to late.

Be careful, there's a reason that FIRST hasn't posted publicly yet. This list will still change. I can guarantee there are a few very low numbers still in the pending area that can/will change things quite a bit.

I understand, i just noticed that 1902 has registered for the event, but yet, i don't see them in any division, that was a preempted statement i just made, please ignore my last statement.

Thank you

What he's saying is that, if you take the URL provided by the 'Team List' links on the 2005 Championship page -- say http://www.usfirst.org/frc/map/index...division=curie for example, and replace the 2005 variable with 2006, you'll see the 2006 division assignments.

They match what y'all found on the 2005 list, but they list the correct dates for the event as well.

Also, as Rich mentioned, as lower-numbered teams continue to register, the ABCD assignment scheme means that all of the teams after a given new registrant will shift one division.

You seem to be missing a big chunk of teams in the middle (about 133 to 280 is gone)

Like Rich said, much of this will still change, looking at the lists on the FIRST site now are as good as looking at the lists people have posted here. Expect the Actual Division lists to be finalized and Publicly released in about a week.

That's a good question - here's what I think happens...
Last year when I pitscouted, there were some teams that did seem out of place. it seems they let them in somehow, but they get put wherever there's room. That's the way it appeared at least.

Automation..

1. Open up FIRST's list of championship attendees.
2. Ctrl+a (select all)
3. Ctrl+c (copy)
4. open up http://www.joelster.com/divs.php
5. Ctrl+v (paste) into the text box.

I just whipped it up (and made it look pretty), so I could mess around with a few options. If you ctrl+end while the cursor is in the text box, you can delete some (or all) of the pending teams manually, to see how their presence (or non-presence) affects the divisions.

Its just for fun.. FIRST could end up not bothering with the 1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4 , which is what the script assumes is the order of Division drafts.

This is pretty sweet...what do the colors and bolds mean? It gave me red, green, and black bolds for different numbers.

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
 
Yeah the numbers are confusing me as well, without actually checking through all the regionals it looks like teams that were in finals or won regionals, or multiple regionals...

not sure tho.
