I don't know exactly what happened, seeing as I wasn't there. But I do believe they thought they were a bit higher, however they fully knew the risk of declining the 3rd seed and believed they could form a powerful 8th alliance.I'm sure Duncan will chime in at some point about what happened, it was a risky move that didn't turn out in their favor. I know 610 learned a lot at FLR and have a very strong, high quality robot that will be a force at GTR.
