Re: Newest Teams to Join STL

As Dustin said, FiM is similar to MAR.

There are more teams in Michigan, so the number of CMP slots is higher. 18 teams earn slots, as follows:

3 MSC Chairman's Awards
1 MSC Engineering Inspiration Award
1 MSC Rookie All Star Award
3 MSC Winning Alliance teams (or 4, if the winning alliance used a back-up robot)

Then the balance of the slots are filled in point-rank order. If any of the eight or nine teams above were registered or qualified for CMP by another method (for example, Hall of Fame teams), then the next team in the point rankings is substituted in their place. That happened this year when 67 (a HoF team) was a member of the MSC winning alliance, so eleven Michigan teams qualified for CMP based on point rank. 51 is also a HoF team, so there are 20 Michigan teams listed in the post by jyh947 above.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
