Re: 2013 Greater Toronto East Regional

Going back to 2010, Simbotics is 9 for 10 at regionals. And those nine are with 2056:

GTRE 2013: 2056 #1.
GTRE 2012: Simbots #1.
Waterloo 2012: Simbots #1.
GTRE 2011: Simbots #1.
Waterloo 2011: Simbots #1.
Pittsburgh 2011: Simbots #1.
Pittsburgh 2010: Simbots #1.
Waterloo 2010: Simbots #1.
GTR 2010: Simbots #1.

What happened in the tenth (GTR-W 2012)? 3161 racked up 20 coopertition points to eke them out on qualification points and get #1 seed. 1114 was #2, 2056 was #7...and obviously there was no way those two were going to end up paired in eliminations at that point. The former got silver with 3161, the latter got gold.

In summary: Don't like the 1114-2056 combo? Outrank them.
