Re: [FRC Blog] FIRST Choice - Update for 2015

Addresses all my issues from last year

- Don't have to hit at screen hitting refresh 5000 times on a Saturday
- No server overloads
- Fair chance for all via random ranking
- Everyone gets a high priority item first (hopefully all get their first choice fulfilled, but I can see where this isn't guaranteed)

My only suggestion is to have an algorithm to "satisfy the most teams" which would maximize the top picks all teams get. Not an easy one to write I admit, but it would be interesting to see test runs of random order vs. maximizing top picks.
