I'm pretty sure we (694) declined alliance #7 and not #6 in favor of being the alliance captains of alliance #8. I remarked yesterday to another team mentor that declining and being one alliance lower didn't seem boo worthy. Or surprising for that matter. It's not like declining alliance #1. It seems like #7 and #8 are going to fairly similar in robot capability level. I also commented that you (or someone else) have to beat alliance #1 eventually to win so might as well play them in quarterfinals.

I enjoyed watching the matches. I had guests visiting earlier in the day Saturday and told them I thought 910 was the best robot there. He asked if we could beat them. I said no. So our 1 point win to force quarter finals to a third game was extremely exciting!
