Re: Nats Alliances
 

What'd they say? The Curie webcast is a silent movie at the moment :(

Re: Nats Alliances
 

Curie 4 vs 5 should be good
looks like 1305 is against 1114 again

Re: Nats Alliances
 

I am really starting to feel sorry for 1305 this year, they have faced 1114 alot... and as much as i love 1305, i think 1114 has the better alliance here and will probably move on.

Re: Nats Alliances
 

In Newton alliance 2 is going far...1574, 148, 1102 massive hanging and an awesome hybrid for 2 12'

Re: Nats Alliances
 

watch out for Galilieo #2 alliance.
173 1902 1319

Einstein:

Curie:1305, 176, 2166
Newton:247-1038-811

i dont know who plays who here.
but my guess is that galilieo is going to win it all them or arch

Re: Nats Alliances
 

My prediction for Einstein:
Curie 1114, 469, 1523
Archimedes 233, 71, 179
Newton 190, 987, 177
Galileo 1425, 25, 488

Curie wins.

Re: Nats Alliances
 

In a year or two, I can see someone developing a good March Madness type bracket interface for people to fill out brackets on. That way all of us sitting at home can get a little competitive with our picks.

Re: Nats Alliances
 

I'll beg to differ, especially because some of your predictions can't happen. For example, the 1v8 winner plays the 4v5 winner, hence you cannot have 1 over 6 in the semi finals.

Galileo:
1. 1425, 25, 488
2. 173, 1902, 1319
3. 2272, 45, 217
4. 1126, 229, 191
5. 1712, 2056, 703
6. 1595, 116, 93
7. 341, 56, 279
8. 65, 503, 79

1 over 8 in 3, 2 over 7
3 over 6, 5 over 4

1 over 5 in 3 hard ones, 3 over 2

1 over 3 in 3.

Archi:
1. 494, 254, 997
2. 233, 71, 179
3. 1302, 27, 223
4. 386, 85, 107
5. 1824, 175, 1153
6. 293, 100, 2062
7. 1516, 364, 1501
8. 1533, 47, 768

1 over 8, 2 over 7
6 over 3, 5 over 4.

1 over 5, 2 over 6

1 over 2

Newton:
1. 2194-33-1503
2. 1574-148-1102
3. 1124-1592-1816
4. 68-111-2068

6. 1311-1369-181
7. 1511-537-39
8. 190-987-177

8 over 1 in 3, 2 over 7
3 over 6, 4 over 5

4 over 8, 2 over 3

4 over 2

Curie:
1 1732, 67, 48
2 330, 910, 1270
3 195, 121, 126
4 1305, 176, 2166
5 1114, 469, 1523
6 2054, 558, 365
7 1700, 234, 118
8 2165, 60, 1087

1 over 8, 2 over 7
3 over 6, 5 over 4

5 over 1, 3 over 2

5 over 3.

In Einstein:
Galileo: 1425, 25, 488
Newton: 68, 111, 2068
Archimedes: 494, 254, 997
Curie: 1114, 469, 1523

From here on I really have no idea. I'm a bit afraid of how many favorites (higher seeded) alliance I'm picking to win, but let's see how it plays out.

Re: Nats Alliances
 

Einstein:

Curie : 1114 - 469 - 1523
Galileo: 1425 - 25 - 488
Newton: 1574 - 148 - 1102
Archimedes: 233 - 71 - 179

and from here on its all up to strategy

Re: Nats Alliances
 

Did anyone WATCH the picks on Curie? Was there some sort of crazy haze in the air or something?

I am not taking anything away from the teams drafted but seriously, how did 1114 get 469 on the 5th pick? Did #5 seed, 1114 get drafted and turn them down?

I don't understand it.

Re: Nats Alliances
 

469 has not been doing very well this weekend.
1114 has been only above average, not at their normal level.
Curie feed was lost dugin alliance selections, so I dont know what happened besides that.

Re: Nats Alliances
 

1114 must have turned people down....its 1114 even if they are not at their best...they are still freaking awesome.

Re: Nats Alliances
 

Einstein:
Galileo:1126, 229, 191
Curie:1114, 469, 1523
Newton:68-111-2068
Arch:494, 254, 997

Winner: Rochester Robotics Rebels (Sorry I had to say it), 1126, 229, 1126(Galileo)

Probably totally wrong but we'll see:)

Re: Nats Alliances
 

I was hoping 1305 would pick 1114 and then a rampbot...

Re: Nats Alliances
 

Is it just me, or are these matches turning out to be really close? Matches I would expect a blow out, I'm seeing the higher seed only eek out a win, or lose. Weird, but very exciting none the less.
