This happens quite often in Michigan at least. At Northville, we were talking to 67 all of Saturday morning as they debated between us and another team. At Troy, 67 told us they were picking 469, so we got together with 217 well before alliance selection. MSC was even better with communication, I knew 67-469, 2054-548, and 3098-33 were all pairing up well before. Finally at Newton we were talking to 1717, 469, and of course 118 most of Saturday and even told 1717 that we were picking 118 first so they could talk with 469.
