Re: Favorite Teams that did not get picked

I'd like to thank everyone who has mentioned us, team 358, as a missed pick.

Being the human player, I ran out of tetras to load in 3 of our 7 matches (we capped 7 or 8 in each of those matches) and we beat some of the better teams out there on the field as well (237 who sadly also wasn't picked, 47, and 1280 I believe just to mention a few). I couldn't watch many of the matches because I was caught up in the pits much of the time, but I can assure you that some picks on Gallileo seemed to be because of poor scouting. Perhaps many of the top 8 weren't used to having to pick?

Some souting jobs were really great, though. As Pat stated, 103 had a few unlucky breaks, so they flew under the radar only to be snatched up by 16. 64 was also a great pick by 56, as they did nicely protecting that home row the whole time.

Of course, I'm biased, but I think we along with many other teams just went too unnoticed by the choosing alliances on Gallileo. We stayed up all night on Friday (our head scouter got about 20 minutes of sleep) just in case if we somehow moved into a picking position. It was very disappointing to see that some of the teams that were up there in ranking the whole competition did not do the same.
