Glad to see TJ^2 and GRR in Newton with us! Looking forward to playing with and against some of the other legendary teams in Newton, as well!

This looks to be a fun division!

Re: 2011 Newton Division

Looking at the line up for Newton, I'm definitely cheering for Newton to have an alliance achieve the perfect 158 score before the other divisions...

I will say, i'm a little intimidated, but i'm sure we can hold our own, maybe even turn a few heads, and as always we'll learn a lot. It should be a blast.
Don't forget to HAVE FUN!!

Good luck Bear Metal. We'll be rooting for ya...

This will be interesting. Newton should be a real threat on Einstein.

See you in St. Louis

Re: 2011 Newton Division

Team 1126, SparX, will not be in attendance at nationals this year, but we'll be cheering on a number of friends from the Finger Lakes Region. Newton division definitely has my eye this year, and you can be sure I'll be jumping out of my seat just as if I was actually there!

Best of luck to everyone! It's going to be a tough division!

Re: 2011 Newton Division

Newton is going to be a fun and competitive division.

It's great to be in the same division as AirStrike, our winning alliance partners from Boston, 1100 a fellow Massachusetts team, and to be back with friends from our Week 3 trip to Chesapeake, 340, 836, 1195 & 3748.

[I'm also volunteering in the pits, so selfishly I'm very happy that Newton will be competing there Thursday & Saturday.]

We are looking forward to seeing friends in St. Louis. Paola, Mountain Home, Liberty to name a few. We wish everyone luck and hope Newton does well on Einstein. Looks like several powerhouse groups.

We've put in a lot of practice since Palmetto and we can't wait to put it to good use on the field.

Re: 2011 Newton Division

1732 is a last minute addition to Newton! Its been pretty cool to think your season is over for couple of weeks and then receive an email Friday, inviting us to the championship. Should be fun to play with some friends and make some new ones.

Interesting, I bet Blizzard (188) was contacted on Friday as well. They are added and still awaiting a division like you were. I am curious with the timeline of how FIRST fills and posts divisions. Did your invite email come before Divisions were posted around 6PM Eastern? When did you confirm that you would be attending?

It would make sense for there to be one more add to even out the divisions. Although, history shows us that divisions assignment doesn't always make sense. For example in 2009, Newton had 88 teams while Galileo had 86 teams (the other 2 divisions had 87 teams) .

I don't understand why FIRST doesn't set the number of teams per division to a multiple of 3 (like 87 or 90) so there are no surrogate matches in qualification. Seeding at Championship is crazy enough without playing additional matches which don't count for some of the participants. There were still enough teams on the wait list and no clear limits (that I can see) to prevent 90 teams/division (and it would only take 3 more matches than 88 teams). Maybe that is something for the future when we are done this fields in the pit experiment
