It seems this year and last year there has been a huge debate on how the alliance selection is. The teams that are in the top 16 at the end of all the seeding rounds are there for a reson, they deserve it. This year in the qualifycation rounds the teams who could score the most points were at the top of the seeding.

The teams that could win matches were not in even the top fifty in all cases. our team this year (131) seeded 110, we seeded here because we couldnt score a ton of points. 47, 111, 157, 126 and all the other teams were in the top cause they could score points. teams like 25 us and a couple of other ball manipulaters seeded really low. But we knew we would so we set out team members to the teams that we thought we would make good alliance with. If teams are picked they are picked for a reson. If teams dont pick you it probably means that your robot doesnt compliment theirs.

What I am saying is that I like the selection that they use. If everyone was in the eliminations then there would be no reson to learn how to communicat with other teams and get out their and scout, or sell yourselfs to other teams.

I hope that first keeps it this way and keeps pumping out games like they have been.
