Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
Of the 54 teams that qualified this past weekend 20 already had their ticket punched for Atlanta. That means a fresh 34 possibilites to add to the list!

That is quite true that 102 is attending :cool: And we cannot wait (as such as every other team going lol)

add 1727 to the list of teams officially attending.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
WOW. It is up to 271 teams as of right now. That is awesome. Our team said we would never go unless we earned it. I must say, this looks like it is an awesome year to have earned it.

Add 935 to the list, we just booked our flights this morning.

Oh man... that's unfortunate that your team won't go unless you earned (in which you did this year with the StL win). It's an amazing opportunity for students to go to and I recommend that each team go AT LEAST once every four years. I'm lucky to be going to Atlanta for a second time, last was in 2004.

I hope all the new attendees enjoy their trip.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
Team 1555 Will be going, as long as everything was done for the regestration properly. This will be our first year competing in Atlanta and I can't wait. It will be hard though, our team only has 9 students. I can't wait for it!

This is our (Team 1824) 1st year going to Atlanta, too. We've only got 10 students so we understand how hard it is for you. It'll be very exciting and fun.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
hold it one second. 271 teams. might as well say 70 per division. how many matches does that work out too? i'm going to championship for first time and would like to see are team on field at least as much as at a large local regional. is there a maximum number of teams?

Not quite. There are still 14 or so regionals left, so theoretically that's 84 more teams that can register. Likely less, but there's also a waiting list and usually a late registration period. Champs will almost definitely be a full 300+ teams, so expect about 80ish per division.

Jeremiah Johnson 22-03-2007 00:30
Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
The last time I was in Atlanta, in 2004, there were 295 teams at the event. I don't know the numbers from the past two years, but I assume they are near there.

Nuttyman54 22-03-2007 00:39
Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
last year each division had around 82 teams, which worked out to about 330 teams total

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
thanks for feedback., but does anyone know how many matches the teams had ,let's say last year?if it is going to be as few as i think,luck of the draw and other teams scouting sounds hugely important as far as moving on.

JB987 22-03-2007 08:48
Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
Last year we had only 7 qualifying matches...no room for errors.

johnr 22-03-2007 08:49
Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
at glr there was 56 teams or so and 8 matches apiece. now we are talking 80 teams. are qualifing days longer or is there just a feeling of being rushed along?

Re: Division as of pre week 4:
 
Please, for the sake of fun, either no teams or 4 teams, or 8 teams, or 12 teams, or any multiple of 4 for that matter, before 648 sign-up! LOL... I love competing with our good friends over at 107! Wow, how fun would that be? Not having to worry about Wildstang or Beatty? Now, that would be nice. But I'm sure there's a lot of good teams in that Archimedes list.

everytime you post the new list all i hear is the wheel of fortune sound in my head. I think the movment of teams from the begining to now shows why first does not change how divisions are made.

Oh yeah, Because dealing with 25,56, 70, 234,365,494 and 1038 are a compareable picnic.:rolleyes: :p
No easy way here, my friend. Though I do have a word of advice: Get 316. They are an amazing lift bot (look up thier FLR matches on SOAP).

Of course there's no easy picnic. There's just an automatic set of numbers I look for right away... It's going to be mucho fun-o!

Three teams that were previously signed mysteriously dissappeared and then reappeared later in the day. I will catch up withthem on Monday.

these lists are by no means official or final. FIRST has used a very specific and simple algorithm to sort teams in to divisions for the past number of years, so we can make a pretty accurate prediction from it. However, since there are still a number of regionals left, plus teams on waiting lists and whatnot, there are still more teams being added, so the list WILL changed between now and the final sort.

Vikesrock 24-03-2007 23:48
Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
Edit: Nuttyman beat me to it

These lists are the "current" divisions based on who is registered for the Championships right now. If the Championships started without any more teams registering, these would be the divisions.

A number of teams will qualify in the remaining regionals as well as the limited open registration off the waiting list after all the regionals are done. As the divisions change, people will almost surely track them in this thread.

alright thanks a bunch for that,
I was wondering how people knew already.

Koko Ed 25-03-2007 09:09
Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
Of the 21 teams that qualified for the championship this weekend 7 had already had their ticket punched for the championship already. That means there are 14 more new teams to sign up (though some had already previously qualified).

Come on now... just two (or 6) more teams between 107 and 648 need to sign up... lol


I can reasonably assume that the first 4 teams are set in their divisions... unless teams 1 or 007 sign up...

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
I'm glad to say this... there are two brazilian teams missing in the lists... teams #1382 and #1860 that have won the brazilian event (team #1382 has won the chairman's too) are now confirmed (we were having a little problem with the payment)...
and sad to say this: unfornately two brazilian teams (#2243 - regional champions, and #2244 - Engineering Inspiration) won't go... and the rookie allstar team #2026 still don't know if they are going or no...
see you in atlanta!!

is this really the way championship divisions are selected?

what are some good teams in archimedes anyways? seeing as how 696 will be there.

I have no clue, Don't they always get to go because of the fact that there an original team. I'll have to ask them about that.

The Juggernauts are not an original team, despite having the #1 team number. They just happened to have the lowest alpha-numeric primary sponsor when team numbers were made permanent in 1998

1683 was left off of your list. Found a few new teams as well. That means currently both my teams are in the same division (oh thank heavens!!!!)

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
Based on this years god aweful alliance algorithem, I wouldn't put it past them to divide the total number of teams into 4 groups based on their team number - this way they can assure a rookie alliance makes it to the finals
(sorry folks but I vote for variety - I want at least the opportunity to play with a good mixture of teams, not forced by what someone thinks is equitable)

Wow... good job thinking in terms of FIRST.

With that list, there would be veterans vs. mid-veterans vs. mid-rookies vs. rookies. Or something like that... lol.

Ed, you're missing 1218 and 2180. I must have missed 494 and 457. Either way, 291 teams are listed....both of our lists there have 289.

I like variety also.

This ABCD system has not been around that long. In 2003, we were clustered into groups, 4 sequential numbers to Curie, 4 to Newton, etc. (we were in the same division as team 47 that year) I'd like to see FIRST do something different this year while placing us in to these 4 divisions.

It would be cool to see this...

On NASA TV, one week before the event, Dean and Woodie spend 30-40 minutes drawing team numbers out of a hat.

Woodie: "OK, Dean, these next 10 are going to Newton: (reads off 10 numbers)"

Dean: "I'll give you 10 that are going to Archimedes..."

After the Dean and Woodie show, we could have live commentary on FIRSTCast.

Just an idea.

Andy -
I love it - as usual you have come up with another fantastic idea.
If they could do it like the March Madness bracket show it would be great.

Dean - Now in the Curie Regional we have team ...
Back to you Woody for the Galileo regional final four spots.

Out of a hat, one of those baskets, or even lottery style pop up ping pong balls with each teams # on it.

Just as long as it mixes things up a bit.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
For something truly random for divisions at the Championship they could do it based on when you signed up. Number the teams the way they do now but do it based on when teams signed up for the competition, not just straight down the list in numerical order. Then release the official divisions after the last regional like they do now.

Nawaid Ladak 27-03-2007 01:06
Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
if you do a bracket show, then do AT LARGE TEAMS, forget the wait list and open registration. do at large bids for regionals. proportional to the # of regionals that week.

for example

VCU this year 66 Teams=7 At Large Bids
UCF this year 51 Teams=6 At Large Bids
Waterloo this year 30 Teams=4 At large bids

or do it by capacity

you can therefore take the teams that are already registered and have the money, etc.

i think this is the best way

Judges decide the At Large Bids at the Regionals, or us the viewers through online polls or mentors polls, just like for college football's Coaches poll, maybe a mentor poll or something.

Now that is an idea, do the final division parings on the SUNDAY before nationals

like selection Sunday, and the games don't start till thurs.

No such thing as a dumb question (most of the time :p )

I'm not sure what the exact physical limit is, but I don't believe it's 300--I've seen 330+ teams come to Championships.

Nah, then all the rookies would end up in the same division (as the only way for rookies to attend is through qualifying at an event). Not so random.

Wow. If the team list stays similar to what it is. I think that the teams are evenly spread out. Im liking the look of curie right now. ( 70, 191, 279, 379, 503, 1114, 1503 off the top of my head). I really wanna see the finals this year. gonna be good.

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.

I don't know about that. After what I have seen this season I think Galileo should be a little higher on the list, but it will depend on who else is place in the Galileo division.

No they wouldn't. If teams, for example, 2000 ,2001, and 2002 win a regional and say they sign up the same day one right after another. Then 2001 would be in one division, 2000 would be in a different one, and 2002 would be in a another different one, say Curie, Newton, and Galileo.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
Ed,
If you could get FIRST to use the list from post #170 I would appreciate it. It puts 67, 340, & 1126 in Newton again. And for some strange reason FIRST decided to name our robot Roxanne for us this year. I had another name in the system but the yearbook says differently. So, fate must realign.

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
Somebody can tell me how many teams still lack to complete the Championship.

PS: #1860 and #1382 together again ^^!!!

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
how many days after this last week of regionals can we expect official divisions?

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
It's usually the Wednesday before the week of nationals at NOON.

So Next wed the official list should be out, which is really cutting it close to Tuesday which is the last day for the teams that qualified through regional victories to commit for championships. i wonder how their gonna fill up those slots in 3 hours then.

Qualifiers plus pre-reg = 340
 
My quick research of the 60 potential week five qualifiers shows 27 awardees / champion teams already had thier ticket punched or qualified twice with an award & game. Assuming all of this week's new qualifiers (33) can attend, that completely fills the championship divisions. (307 as of Friday + 33 = 340) That leaves only a few spots for wait list teams will be from qualifiers who don't attend for what ever reason. Could be some of the rookies and teams abroad. I'd say five to ten teams get to move on to Atlanta from the waitlist.

229 will soon be added to the list of competitors in Atlanta.

See you all there

This is going to be the fourth year the Championships have been in Atlanta, this will be the fourth year I'll be there with 229, I simply cannot wait!

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
Man, I can't wait to see 1636 and 1583 get onto that list. I'm so excited. What way to end for Team 1636.

376 pit stalls is 94 teams per division = 36 teams on the waitlist...
That would just be increadable for us not being one of the top 20 teams on the list but would be a major bummer is we were 37. I can only hope this is an indication of the number of teams going to Atlanta:)

I don't recall how many pit stalls that FIRST had last year per division. It looks like there is an extra row per division with 16 stalls. 5 rows of 16 = 80 per division so that is not enough so is this just wild speculation?

Nawaid Ladak 02-04-2007 14:56
Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
thats not going to happen, FIRST already sent out a e-mail to teams below 20 last week who were on the wait list saying that they are taking them off because there is no chance of them getting in.

Just because they have 376 pit spaces doesn't mean they will use that many

In 2002 through 2004 the divisions were released the Tuesday 9 days before the beginning of the championship. That ended up ranging anywhere from before the last regional ended (2003) to 10 days after the last regional ended (2002).

In 2005, the divisions were released on a Monday, 10 days before the beginning of the championship (9 days after the end of the last regionals).

In 2006, the divisions were released on a Friday, 13 days before the beginning of the championship (13 days after the end of the last regionals).

Re: 2007 Championship Divisions
 
Championships are next week. Payment's due by Friday. Tommorow (Tuesday) is the last day for week 5 qualifiers to sign up. Is this going to be a squeaker this year, with the divisions not being released until Next Monday. Or are they going to go on faith to get it done, and release the list on Wednesday?

I liked the strategy FIRST used last year-- put participants in divisions, pretending as though the "pending" teams were actually going. Then, release the divisions without listing pending teams. As pending teams get their money to FIRST HQ, they get added to the list of teams attending the Championships, and they claim the spot FIRST reserved for them. This prevented entire divisional assignments from shifting around, and allowed FIRST to release divisions in a reasonable amount of time.

I think there are alot of week 5 qualifyers in big trouble. There's just not enough time to get so much money together in such a short amount of time.

Tell me about it, we're in a complete frenzy for money right now. it's just our sponsors are figuring who's paying how much on the registration fee.
