Posted on 3/26/99 11:13 PM MST In Reply to: RULE CHANGE!!! posted by Brandon Martus on 3/26/99 8:38 PM MST: What an absolutely great idea. These guys are amazing problem solvers; this solution gets more teams involved with out screwing up the schedule. This will be great at nationals. Thank you Dean! :-Dan : Just thought I'd let everyone who isn't at the Great Lakes Regional know about the rule change. : [This will probably show up on the FIRST page soon] : Dean asked all 59 teams at this regional to vote, and 55 of the 59 voted yes. : Heres the change: : The top 8 teams will choose 1 alliance. : Then they will go through and choose another alliance. : So there will be alliances of 3 teams. : Only 2 teams (decided by the 'captain', the 1-8 seed) of each alliance will play each round. : It can be any combination of the 3 teams. : This will allow more teams to participate, and will help with the break-downs, making it so there shouldn't be any teams playing alone. I believe Dean said something about shorter time-outs (2.5 min? .. not positive) : Like I said, this will probably be on the FIRST page, restated OFFICIALLY, this is just from my memory. (correct me if i'm wrong and u are at the regional also) |
