Re: A few Off Season Questions

As a team going to Red Stick. I think we should make sure we get all the qual matches we can 9-10 or more to make sure we get a good solid ranking. We're also training new drivers so the more practice the better.

We should do 1-6 alliances so no one is left out and snake should be fine with this field of teams. I don't see any supper #6 alliance having a huge advantage here.

1 plays the winner of 4 vs. 5.
2 plays the winner of 3 vs. 6.

I like the idea of passing down the bye.
1->4->5
2->3->6

That way no alliance is punished if they want to play more matches and they just sub into the other alliancess spot in the quarterfinals.

Also I would really love it if we could somehow confirm with teams the week before that they are coming. That way we could possibly do a tentative match schedule. Events with tentative match schedule > than events without.
