Next round of matches is generated from the groups. The 1-0-0 teams play 1-0-0 teams, 0-1-0 teams play 0-1-0 teams, etc...

After that round...the matches are generated again based on win-loss-tie record with the RS as the tiebreaker to get the groups.

This would produce a team ranking at the end of the qualifications where the best teams that have really beat the other best teams are at the top where they deserve to be... I also think it helps group the teams so everyone is playing robots in about equal strength so all matches should be even more exciting...

Oh...I would also like to see more than 7 qualification matches at IRI...
kind of crazy when you face 16, then 469, then 148, then 365, then 2970 at least we had a good last qualifier with 234
