Re: "Strategic" Alliance selection

A bit of advice:

Let's say a horrible robot ends up #1 seed. You are sitting in the #4 slot with a pretty good machine and are hoping to either pick Super Duper bot ranked 12th or Really good bot ranked #2. If the #1 seed comes running over to see if you will say yes, be polite, but don't tell them yes or no as far as accepting their offer. If you say no, they may ask you to make sure you can't match up with the #2 seed. If you say yes, but don't mean it, then you have to tell a lie. Instead, we would consider it. would you care to share your list so that we can discuss a third?
