I disagree. There were some incredible robots left that didn't get picked.
11, 1625, 1741, 829, 2252, 1676, and many more were all putting up good numbers.
I thought for sure 11 would get picked, since they had such crazy potential.
I also thought that some alliance would select 1640, because although their climber wasn't working very well at the end of quals, if they could get it working by elims, they could provide a climb to an alliance sorely lacking one (Like the 118-469-2590 alliance).

IRI certainly went way different that how I thought it would in more than one regard (How did 1334 slip to the second round? How did 4265 slip to the third round? I just don't get itttttt)

Anyway, it's past midnight and I have school in the morning and this post is barely relevant to the conversation. Good night, Chief Delphi.
