We would have been thrilled if 1717 or 2056 had accepted our invite. However, they hadn't worked through the game theoretic outcomes about what was going to happen as other teams declined us as well, which we were pretty sure was going to happen. Fortunately, the Curie field was very deep and 148 was a perfect match for us.
If you don't seed 1st, don't expect the higher seeds to roll over for you so that you can build your own desired alliance. They will control the draft however they can. Qualifications matter.
