Now, the question we considered later: Say 1st time through, every team picks their alliance mate #1.

Then, 2nd time through seed #1 picks seed #2, who already has an alliance mate.
1- would this be allowed to happen?
2- what would happen to the alliance mate?
LOL... Actually, I was looking at this exact situation last night cause a team member brought it up. I did not see any specific rule in the rulebook against this. This would lead to a super alliance of 4 robots. NICE!!
Anyone want to challenge my findings of the rules?
