I think that was the case in the first year of districts, but at this point District Chairman's award teams compete at states with their robot, regardless of other points. Engineering Inspiration and Rookie All Star at district level don't automatically qualify a team for states with their robot, but only district winners are eligible to win the state level award.

This seems strange, it almost seems more advantageous to win the Rookie Inspiration Award than the Rookie All Star Award.

This is really cool, thanks for putting this together Joe! I'm excited to see 1678 in the #1 spot, they've come a long way and have a bright future ahead of them!

Also, I haven't seen this mentioned on CD, but California FIRST is posting a California Top 20 after each week of regionals. You can check it out here. These rankings are poll-based, but kind of fun nonetheless.

Getting pumped for the week 4 CA events!

Well dang this is cool. Helps me see what it would be like if California changed to FiC. It's also interesting comparing the opinion polls posted by Mike Corsetto with the FiM rankings.

Big thumbs up for this!

When not if

Coming next year or the year after, I don't recall off the top of my head.

Ok. I didn't make it to the meeting that was held so I just got the cliff notes.

It would be FiNC, and FiSC. (Southern and Nothern)

I'm not so sure they'd split California, I've imagined the whole state would be lumped with Nevada and Hawaii.
And when CA gets the district model do you imagine the championships would be held at Silicon Valley or somewhere else?

I don't believe the plan involves NV or HI right now, at least as FIRST sees it. I know the Hawaii teams want to be able to play here (and the Nevada teams too I'm sure). The teams in our area seemed to support making that happen, but HQ did not seem too keen on that plan.

Aren't there a handful of teams from Australia that go to Hawaii? If there was a CA-NEV-HA system, they would have to be included as well, which is one reason that an integrated system might be complicated.

Looking forward to the day when district points are interchangeable from region to region (you go where ever you want to and the points you accumulate add up regardless).

Joe,

In Michigan, we only count the first two district events for points.

Our team coach showed us this thread which we were very excited about, however I think there may be some minor miscalculations (unless i'm forgetting something), from our record at CVR it looks like our score should be 60, not 68.

We had 7 wins (14 points), 6th seeded alliance captain (11 points), won the regional as alliance captain (30 points), and received the innovation in control award (5 points). Please correct me if I'm wrong.

You are correct. I found an error that affected the win-loss records at Madera for all teams (but not the other events). Thanks for double checking!
