Re: Rule 8.4.1

You'll see soooooooooo many more quality matches this year in Playoffs. 1st and 2nd Seeds wont be able to stack their alliances as much as they used to be able, and 7th and 8th seeds, now have a shot at doing well. So you'll see some intresting matches and upsets this year, its a much fairer system.

One thing that I think maybe more intresting is the Championship because of this system. Noticible in the 2005 Championship was teams that had easier schedules and an Above average robot were able to remain undefeated and within the top 4, now what you may see is teams with better robots than the undefeated teams really get a chance to show what they got by picking better teams in the 3rd round.
