Re: Divisional Preview
 

?

Based on?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

341....Archimedes

And I can't give up my sources.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

...Huh?

Who wants to figure out what algorithm the above matches?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Uh, I have trouble believing this, can you give us more info?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

haha yeah right. i would trying but i'm currently busy. what i want to know is when this information is going to be public. also, i think that they might be yanking our chains.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

1714......Galileo
:cool:

103.......Archimedes

More fun later...........

Re: Divisional Preview
 

If this is true... I'd hate to be in Curie

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Assuming these are right, :eek: 469 and 1114 in the same division?? Can I hear 30 points?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I hope were in Newton. It's the only field I haven't been on yet! =)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Really? Again
Jim Zondag is my kryptonite...

...luckily, I'm not the one he needs to beat this year. ;)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Do me!

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Where is 1519?

I want to be in Curie!

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Where is 1503 supposed to be, according to your sources?

-Nick

Re: Divisional Preview
 

1676?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I will just go ahead and bite... 399?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

1519, 1503 - newton

1676, 399 - Galileo



I found it too Justin! :]

Re: Divisional Preview
 

816?

(Can someone post a link?)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

If this is true, I know which field i want to do Awards Asst for....

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Thanks! I think.... if it is true. Did you say found it?

Nothing on TBA or usfirst.org. April fools was a week ago!

Re: Divisional Preview
 

2010 for 33, now there are 2 seperate Copioli's to compete against.:confused:

What happens when you mix Yellow Kryptonite, with Green Kryptonite in a Red Kryptonite shell? Must begin scouting DC comics for the answer.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I'll join in the fun.

11?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Einstein! ;)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Ha, that's a knee-slapper.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

1538?

Link please?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I can't get that link to work either :eek:

Maybe FIRST saw this thread?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

hahahah yeah. somebody probably hacked something somewhere. :)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

WOW. A lot of moderator action. I bet this thread gets deleted. Must be sensitive info.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I think you're right. In combination what MissDaisyGirl said. The information coming out must be correct and there was a link that worked and FIRST may have caught wind. Just my two cents.

Cass

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Yeah definitely a lot of activity, I wonder if there will be any "changes" now...

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Well thank you for making me anxious for no reason.

I was perfectly fine sitting at my desk at work oblivious to what division I was in.

/sigh

Back to work... Someone wake me when the actual ones are posted!

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Haha, same here. Back to my paper/school then work!

Oh well, that was fun...

Re: Divisional Preview
 

FIRST has gotten upset about hijacked links in the past. They just don't know how to hide from the Google spiders for long. Anyways it doesn't mean anything until it's officially, which will probably be 5pm like when they usually let it out.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Yes, thank you for the excitement. Where did y'all find this? Just out of curiosity. Maybe I shouldn't ask, my post my get deleted or censored. lol jk

375 post, yay Robotic Plague!

Cass

Re: Divisional Preview
 

It may be sooner then you think...

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Hopefully the division selection gods will keep 1114 away from 469, for the sake of exciting matches on Einstein...

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Sooner? I'll take that. Are you talking about 5 pm today? They used to release it at like 12:30 in the afternoon on a Wednesday. Just some past experience. Although I don't know why we are all getting worked up over this. lol :)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

My question is, so what if we found it earlier than they wanted to "officially" release it. Since it was found, why not just release it? Now I'm expecting them to take it back and generate a new set of divisions, because of the leak. I don't understand why knowing what the divisions are matters when leaked a day or two early. It doesnt change any of the strategy, it just lets you know what strategies you might have to employ.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I totally agree with you, knowing today makes no difference that knowing yesterday, or the day after. The only think that makes it having a difference is the time frame for scouting before hand. All I have to say is Good Luck to all teams. :)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I posted this in the rumor mill because i fully expected them to change. This was meant to be a fun way to build excitment before the official release. Nothing unethical was meant by it and dont regard any of this as official. So much for a fun rumor thread...

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I had fun. :)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

It was fun, especially when you are searching around different sites to find it!

I think when you and Alex responded you guys seemed to give it more of an "official" sense which drove people up the wall thinking that FIRST had hidden it for us and you two knew where it was!

If I was you, I would have predicted where the top 10 teams in each division would have gone and watched to see if they would have come true! :D

Thanks for posting it gave me something to laugh about today!

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Just take it easy guys. Don't make FIRST's job any harder than it is - imagine what happens around Championship payment deadline time (i.e. now). They're working very hard to handle a number of teams' needs right now. People may be dropping - some may be adding in at the last minute. I imagine it's rather hectic.

Patience is a virtue. Let them release their divisions on their own terms.

I'd wait until the team list links for each division show up on this page:

http://usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/...nt.aspx?id=432

Re: Divisional Preview
 

FIRST's test event schedule page is showing Newton right now... which matches up with Justin's original preview of 16 and 67...

http://www2.usfirst.org/2010comp/eve...edulequal.html

Re: Divisional Preview
 

But which doesn't match up with Alex Cormier's preview of 399 being in Galileo. These clearly are still very much in flux.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Interesting, that puts my team in Newton again...

It would be the FIRST time we were in the same division 2 years in a row.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

If I were testing this system, I would probably do it like this.

1) Generate test divisions
2) Generate test matches
3) Make sure everything works the way I want it to.
4) Do it again for real.

Who knows though.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Would put us in Newton too, with 177, 178 and Rosie (sort of an honorary CT team they are so close). Fine by me, hope it stays this way!

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Yep that is exactly what I was going to say. Things are still changing as we speek. As was mentioned, last minute additions and changes are probably being made.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Wow!

According to that test schedule 67 will have 10 Qualification Matches.

I'll check for other teams and edit back.

*Edit* It appears that teams will have 10 matches with the exception of some surrogates. (according to the test schedule)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I think they changed it from the mad rush earlier because we are not on Newton anymore. But I like this Newton with 1922,1902, and 1073 on one field.


Crosses fingers for: 1519,1073,1058,1922! I know it probably won't happen!

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Interesting, we were in Galileo for five straight seasons, 2003-2007.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Did you guys notice that they're giving each team 10 matches?

Granted, they could just be playing with match intervals...

Re: Divisional Preview
 

We also have 10 matches according to the test schedule.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

It appears that this is true for most teams.

The only surrogate I've found on that schedule so far is 2771.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

hmm.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

No Love for Team 971. We didn't even make it to the Quarters

:confused:


Roy

Re: Divisional Preview
 

They are also doing an elimination schedule for Newton :)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I wonder how feasible this test schedule actually is.

It appears that is built around a 6 minute match interval (Start of one to the start of another)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

10 matches was the stated plan for this year and the reason we're starting matches on Thursday according to Bill's Blog.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Ha ha ha. I guess I should place it as "test" schedule :P However, having 10 matches will be really nice.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

2 positive I take out this:

-Well the times are correct, fixed from MSC
-Looks like they are shooting for 10 matches per team (a big improvement from 7)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

WOW...

Division MIKE!

http://www2.usfirst.org/2010comp/eve...eduleelim.html

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Just found Justin's source - it's the feed that FMS uses to download team lists. Looks genuine.

1503's in Archimedes. :)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

My source was an email from a friend lol

I think you found my sources source ; )

Re: Divisional Preview
 

How do you access this?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Wow, it actually is. sweet looking, I think curie is the hardest.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

if you can't tell us or something, you could always tell me what division 2834 is in... :)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Galileo.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

702?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

WOOT! My old team made division MIKE!

GO 93!

Curious to see who ends up in each division. If 1114 and 469 end up in the same division they could be hard to beat.

Where did 1918 end up? They might be able to beat out 469 and 1114 in ranking to split them up.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I want to join in on the fun...

Team 188?
:)

Parth

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Galileo

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Booo this test elim schedule stinks. 11 doesn't even get picked. :p

So what division is 11 being tossed into this year? I'm hoping its Newton.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

702 and 188 - Galileo

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Galileo...

Re: Divisional Preview
 

604?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Archimedes.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Arch

Re: Divisional Preview
 

816?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

694?

Also I don't think I've ever seen a thread with more deleted posts.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

816 Curie
694 Galileo

Re: Divisional Preview
 

1918?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

326? 2056? 503?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Arch.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Hmmm...

Curie is the only Field we've won an Elimination Match on at the Championship.

Should be fun.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

A,G,G.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Team 694 and 702 = Galileo

Re: Divisional Preview
 

1075?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Team 1075 = Curie

Re: Divisional Preview
 

2062

Re: Divisional Preview
 

*sigh* I was hoping we might get to play an event against anyone BUT 1114 and 2056... oh well.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Archimedes

Re: Divisional Preview
 

link? or how to?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I guess in will join in the frenzy... 201, 2337, and 573 please :)

Re: Divisional Preview
 

found it.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

1718? 27? 33?

Re: Divisional Preview
 

This is sad news :(

Our alliance partners always get thrown around into other divisions.

Oh, and
GALI-

Re: Divisional Preview
 

Anybody else spot the pattern? I did right away.

Re: Divisional Preview
 

I'm very curious now as to where 368 and 359 are.

..just kidding
