: Hi all, here is the question of the week...

: Question 8/6/00: Since the forming of alliances, teams have been shopping around their robots by using pamphlets, signs, websites, etc... Do you think that these methods actually help a teams chances in getting picked?


someone may have already said this, i ddidnt read them all but....

i think i and other people on my team that worked on strategy with me kind of immediately assumed that if the teams were stalking you with pamphlets they weren't exactly gonna be your first choice, which may have been an unfair asumption in some cases but i think trying to sell their robots in the ways that most teams chose to back fired... if we ever slipped out of the top 8 or 16, we trusted that other teams would remember our ability, and if we even approached another team it would be because like tom siad they would be a good match for us and we wanted to make sure they realized this.
if the teams are good enough to be in a picking position, chances are they watch other teams well enough to know your abilities already, good or bad...and as my dear colleen mentioned- if you have nothing else to do during the time that the top seeds are trying to figure out who they want, its not polite to take away their time talking adn talking and talking, but theres no real harm in handing people pamphlets if thats what you want to spend your time doing.
