Wow.. I totally lost the point of the thread for a minute there, I was so concerned with the "raw data". See, that'll teach me. .
Anyways, I know at least this year, we ended up being bumped to the 8th seed in the finals in Archimedes (from 11th) and ended up beating the 1st seed. I loved that.. Something about the last place (in the bracket) achieving over the top seed just made me extremely happy, because this competition this year was so well designed, that it could be done.
I think this happened in some of the other divisions this year as well, 8th seed beating the 1st. I don't recall where though.
Oh, and as for us, as you can tell, we lost eventually in the finals in our division, but oh well...
We lost to the National Champions, so that makes the loss that less painful.
I was rooting for them cause they were from our division, I didn't care that they beat us.. I just wanted to see our division win. If it were us, I would be extremely happy, but I just wanted to see our division win again, like in 2003.
Nevermind the fact that I predicted Archimedes to win, and I wanted the claim to a correct prediction.. Which I got.
