FIRST told me they weren't certain an "official" communication would be forthcoming from them once they released the divisional information, so this may as well be the clearinghouse area as the "final" information is released.

It appears they have started the divisional assignment process per the overall list:

Overall List:
By Team Number: https://my.usfirst.org/myarea/index....P&sort=teamnum
By Division: https://my.usfirst.org/myarea/index....&sort=division

Championship Event Info: http://www.usfirst.org/community/frc...nt.aspx?id=432


Sorting order appears to be Archimedes, Curie, Newton, Galileo - repeat....

Disclaimer - It APPEARS these are valid, but wait until the official Divisional Team Lists appear on the Championship Event Info page at the link above to be 100% certain.

We're in Galileo. Wow, it's strong. Although neither of the rest look particularly shallow at a first glance either.

Does anyone know where all the division userbars are?

Archimedes: 987/1024 over 71/365
Curie: 16/67 over 33/118
Galileo: 25/103 over 217/1114 (or 254/330?)
Newton: 233/968 over 111/175

Whoever wins Galileo wins it all. Somebody else joins Beatty in the multiple win club.

You heard it here first.

You forgot to add a third partner in Newton.......233/968/359.
We actually were all together in a match for an epic 138 score!
As the Hawaiians would say.....Hana Hou! (One more time!)

[IbleedPink233]

That was pretty sweet. . .
Seems that people are forgetting that 2056 is in Newton, as well. They have been a dominating team this year, as well.

Read the disclaimer in the initial post on this thread.

This info is coming from the official FIRST team list, but until they post the team lists for each division to the "Championship Event Info" page, you can't consider it to be truly official.

Knowing everyone's penchant to refresh the team list every five minutes around this time of year, it would be extreme folly for FIRST to populate the division column of the team list and let the entire world view it if they weren't 100% certain that information was final and valid.

Rochester is gonna ROCK Curie!!!

Careful now, wasn't Curie stacked last year with have 16, 34, 48, 67, 118, 330, 469, 910, and 1114
and didn't Newton end up winning the whole thing?

[Dan Richardson]

and newton was stacked the year before, and archimedes ended up taking it home. Its hard to pick against stacked divisions, but many times what happens is the super teams get broken up because of a 1st seeder thats not quite up to par with the rest. Decent team, with some decent luck = super alliance breaker uppers. But there may just be too many good teams to see this happen.

[MDiff]

Archimedes watchers should also look out for RUSH (27)

As for Curie last year...
interesting things happened.

[Nawaid Ladak]

i think gali will have the best matches, but in the end, newton will win it.... as much as i hate to say that, all the key stats that i look at say that.... look in the OPR thread for more info
