I do think we need to educate our fellow FRC'ers, however. The "boos" or "Ohhhhs" we got from the crowd when we declined the alliance invite was a bit misplaced. There was no disrespect in our declining. No one should have read anything into it. As we go into our district next year, this is going to happen more often.
Best of luck to those heading to World's in the a few weeks. I will be very interested to see what the "Capital Area District" will do in St. Louis.

I think lots of times "Whoaaaaaaa" gets misheard as "booooo". It's just that usually alliance selections are fairly scripted through the first 4 or 5 (or at least should be) picks, and it's generally surprising to hear someone get turned down in the first round. My reaction of "whoaaaaaaaaa", was definitely not a negative gesture, just a reaction, really.
