are these legit?



if so...cure is STACKED :)

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

It's the formula FIRST uses (line up the teams by number and count 1,2,3,4. Divide them up by that an repeat.) There will be an additional 125 to 150 teams added to the mix. It's just a weekly FIRSTgeek thing to do betwwen competitions.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

Based on experience, this implies nothing about the overall winner on Einstein. It does make for some exciting divisional play though!

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

Based on those, I call Archimedes for the win.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

Curie does look pretty nice right now. :D

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

how exactly do all of these teams qualify to go to nationals before even going to the regional? I know that if you win chairman's, then you get to go to nationals forever, but how else are all of these veteran teams already guaranteed a spot?

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

They all signed up when registration opened for Championships towards the end of last year. More teams will be added as the regionals progress.

KoKo, you are always thinking slightly outside the box. Has anyone ever done a "Fantasy Robotics" game? You sound like the man to do it.
Good luck to everyone this year.:rolleyes:

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

Based on previous years and the little info we've seen this year, I've gotta disagree and say Curie is tops. Curie is loaded (Beatty, 'Stang, and the Poofs in the same division two years in a row!?!).

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

Has there been any indication that the divisional assignment criteria will be the same as in previous years? I know last year we came up with several possible alternatives: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=44782

The problem with 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-4 is that teams like HOT and Trucktown Thunder can never be in the same division, because their team numbers are consecutive. A serpentine assigment (1-2-3-4, 4-3-2-1) wouldn't solve that. But a random draw from groups of teams (1-100, 101-200, etc) could.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

Not to mention PINK, RUSH, Chief Delphi, The Frog Force and that one team from Bloomfield Hills that builds some of the best bots in the world the Las Guerrillas (Man Michigan Teams are Good:D ). I can understand why he would say Archimedes however. Raider Robotix, the T-Kats, Thunder Chickens, More Martians, Simbotics, Miss Daisy, RAGE, The Huskies and MOE are all very amazing teams.

If I were to rank them right now I would go
CURIE
ARCHIMEDES
GALILEO
NEWTON

That means I am ruling out Curie to win the championship. I think I would pick Newton to win it all because they are the least likely. I know it sounds backwards but that is what I am thinking.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

this was the case for Newton last year (Beatty, Satngs, Poofs and many others) and yet Archimedes won out. That'll still going to be one heck of a division if it stays like that.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 

FIRST will never change that formula.
There's no reason to.
