Midwest Regional match list
 

It doesn't appear that this is available yet on FIRST's site and I didn't see it anywhere else, so in case anyone is interested here's the qualification match list for Midwest.

Thank you Dave. I will be down there on Saturday to watch and am looking forward to seeing you guys run. Good luck!

Do you know if match listings will be available to all regionals the day or night before?

Re: Midwest Regional match list
 

thank you very much! Now I know when to watch the webcast (as I will be busy tomorrow and not able to watch everything)

Re: Midwest Regional match list
 

Is this a new thing where the qualifying match list is up the day before? I always thought this wasn't provided until the 1st day of qualifying matches.

Re: Midwest Regional match list
 

Yes. They're making them available practice day now, in the afternoon after everyone has registered.

Thanks, Dave.

This just saved me a very long phone call with my son (Team 16 driver). Needless to say, I'm very interested in matches 37 and 61... good luck (especially in match 61;) )!

Re: Midwest Regional match list
 

they should update the manual section 9.3.1 then

Re: Midwest Regional match list
 

I think that match 56 should provide a pretty high score with 1625 and 1114 on the same alliance.

Re: Midwest Regional match list
 

You're right, they missed that. See Team update 7 and the subsequent modification to 3.6.2.1

I also noticed the pairing algorithm is definitely changed (I think they told us this at some point). Last year, two low number teams were never paired together and rookies also were never paired. But looking at the lists, I see several instances of those scenarios. Cool.

For anybody who missed it, here's more information about the scheduling algorithm being used this year:

oh boy we get to face wildstang 3 straight matches in a row

Re: Midwest Regional match list
 

Just glancing through the schedule I see Wildstang plays against 1625 3 times. I thought the algorithm was supposed to fix that. I also saw 1625 plays 1114. They have a tough schedule.

EDIT: Aren saw it just before me, and by the way good luck

The algorithm is the same as last year, it is a code that takes the teams and does it by numbers. It happens at every regional, its embedded into the code and with the one they are using it is guaranteed to happen.

This is not true, the algorithm used this year is not the same as the one used last year. As mentioned by jgannon a few posts up the algorithm in use this year is detailed here.
