Getting Picked

Other on team #71, Team Hammond, from Team Hammond.
In our two regionals this year we had the good fortune of being a picker. We don't know what the other teams do, but this is what we do in selecting our alliance partners.
We do not usually look at the seeding chart except to see who is the auto seed and who is not available. Also, we don't pay much attention to sales pitches or advertisements. We do watch the practice sessions and the other elimination rounds very closely. We do look for speed, execution, reliability, proficiency, smoothness, stability, etc. With 7 or 8 elimination rounds you should be able to show your strong abilities. If you can do a task well and stay out of causing problems for your alliance, you will be noticed. If you are seeding low, don't give up. In Chicago the very last seed was picked by the number one seed! Hope this helps.
Mr Bill
