Any chance you could run the numbers for Last Event OPR? I would but I have homework and all that pesky college stuff.

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

I'm using scores from during the season. The problem is that I don't know who went to what off-season event, and what happened there. Basically, I just threw this all together based on TBA.


I also have homework ;) I think I'll try to do it on Wednesday. 1114's database?

Also, I should emphasize this isn't a very good ranking system. For instance, team 66 got a really high score in my system for winning Ann Arbor, even though they were the third pick and did not really do well during qualifications.

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

Well, 1114 doesn't go to Championship which is most KK teams' last event. All I know off the top of my head that does CMP OPR is FRC Tracker for iPhone.

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

I was recently made aware that Team 469, Las Guerrillas, Einstein Finalists, will be attending Kettering Kickoff. Now, if added to the pool as would be normal, there would be cries of "unfair!" As a matter of fact, Clinton would already have traded for them.

But that's pretty unfair. he knew it, and let me know.

So after some careful consideration, we'll be holding a silent auction ending Thursday night at 9 pm. You bid with your current draft spots. The 1st overall pick is worth 36 (2nd pick 35, 3rd pick 34, etc.), the bottom pick is worth 4. You may only bid full teams (not half of the 1st overall and 2/3 of whatever else). The winner will lose the picks be bid, and those teams will leave the draft but will not enter the pool, they'd be gone. Yes, this means rtfgnow has more overall bidding power than anyone else. I consider disallowing players who missed their turns, but I figured if they didn't show up then, they won't show up now. And if they show up now, then we're rewarding improvement.

Consider that 469 lost at MARC, which had comparable depth of field to KK. Also consider that even complete dominance isn't going to be scored much higher than a team's alliance partners.

Go!


P.S. If you're a skimmer, just read the bold.

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

So we get to see who bid what right?

Anyway I'll start the bidding with the very last pick of the draft.

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

And I hereby use the 2nd last pick of the draft for 469.

@Chrisisme, I have the app. I'll try to run stuff tomorrow, see if I can get it online tomorrow as well.

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

I'd be willing to trade my 1st pick spot for 469 (28 points).

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

You may bid more than one pick, just add up the points. Note that you will lose both teams, so be careful. Be sure to note how many points your bids are (count down from 36 if you're unsure).

@Chris Yeah, just post your bids here. Like a silent auction, you can see the bidding sheet.

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

Do I understand correctly that I could put up all my teams and get 469 and two of 302 314 468 1506 1946?

This is a request of confirmation, it is not a bid.

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

I'll do my last two picks, which should total 29 points.

Sorry Zach.

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

Thats my bid!

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

I considered this for a bit, and I have to say no. If you trade away 2 teams for one, you may not acquire any teams from the pool (though you may trade).

Why? By trading away those three teams in exchange for that one, you're saying that those three teams are worth that one team, so you would have the (rough) equivalent of three teams.

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

I am still waiting on confirmation that I can get two teams off the wait list if I put up all 65 points.

Still not a bid.

Thank you for the confirmation. I am not going to bid away 217, therefore I am out of the bidding (the sum of my other two teams would tie the current high bid).

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

(I have to say I thought that'd happen.. Are you sure? If so, count up the points, and post that)

Re: [FF]: [FF]: Kettering Kickoff 2010
 

I'll laugh if it's revealed that 469 SawZalled off the top of their robot and just decided to be a regular midfielder after IRI.
