Re: Picking Teams in Elimination Rounds

At pittsburgh you're going to have two options if you're the best team.

1. During the whole regional you fix every robot in the pits. With only 25 teams its feasible to make sure every robot is running. As long as they're all running you won't get a broken robot as a partner.

2. The second option is just throw the last couple matches. This is a lot easier I'd imagine than trying to fix every robot. I just can't see any team doing it or their partners going along with it.

I'd hope that the best teams in pittsburgh band together to make sure every single robot is in top working condition. With only 2 rookies there is a good chance most will already be in fine shape, not to mention the rookies seem to get better every year.
