Re: NY Tech Valley Robot Rumble - October 4

As someone who has competed in a 2v2 offseason, 2v2 in qualifications can be great. You're not doing an offseason to have another official competition. However, you are commonly running new drive teams and pit crews. With a slowed match pace with 2v2 and fewer machines on the field, you're not throwing any new people into the inferno of a regional match and match cycle.

However, be intelligent when it comes to structuring eliminations. I don't want to detail to you how the old Robot Rumble in Richmond handled 2v2 elims for fear someone will adopt that idea in the future and credit/blame me for it.
