Thanks Eric, keeping our fingers crossed for you too.

I just received an invite from HQ, so we're in. Not sure who is officially out, but we're in.

The point ranking system is interesting this year to say the least. I wonder what last year's results would look like with this year's match outcomes? Neither ranking system accounts for strength of schedule but I'm just wondering if the nature of this year's game has a lot to do with it in how some of the role player type robots have found a niche and a part of this year's game.
