Re: Some thoughts on rules, refs, and ranking

Being on the short end of the stick when it came to rankings really didn't sit well with me this time at Peachtree, but I don't see how else the ranking system itself can be changed. It was more the random alliance pairings during qualifications and some terrible scouting in my opinion that caused the eliminations at Peachtree to look like they did. 2 of the alliance captains in the had purely defensive robots with a 1 point dumper, where as teams like 1319 and 3489, who were some of the top offensive bots were sitting as low as 15th in rankings.

On a separate note, I cannot be happier about the job the referees did at Peachtree. Every call down to the little stuff in the rules were made. The head ref was very confident in her understanding of the rules. Thanks for calling all fouls with no leniency.
