Re: 2010 IRI Results and Awards

With all the ties in the elimination rounds, it was a good thing for teams that had to "hit the road," that there was no awards ceremony after the matches on Saturday.

I've always thought that the number 4 team should be requred to play one match per round, since they are officially a "winner" if their alliance wins the competition. Maybe a compromise would be to require the backup to play the second match of a round, if your alliance wins the first match of the round. These are just my thoughts. There are good points to be made for the current setup, including having your backup "readily at hand" if needed.

This may have been the best IRI ever, as far as the level of competition. There were a lot of very good teams that didn't get picked.
