Draft order: The most current standings list, in order from first to last (and then the whole serpentine thing for 2nd and 3rd rounds). 3 rounds/draft. BTW, this does mean that any events scored after the first draft will be counted for draft order for the next.

If my notes are correct, three FF teams (LTown, Swamp Life, Daedalite) missed all of the DCMP drafts. Am I going to boot them? Nope. Their penalty is that until they make a pick (or indicate they'll be live-drafting), I'm going to assume that they aren't showing up, which means a random team.

Now, random teams for Champs may or may not actually be random... If I can find a list of QA or OPR or FF points for 'em, I might be starting from the middle of that list, as is typical, or the bottom, which is what was used for DCMPs... Or I might just do random.

Oh, er, yeah. Championship scoring. From the rules:
For the Championships, scoring changes to:
Quarter finalists – Division, 5 points
Semifinalists – Division, 10 points
Finalists – Division, 15 points
Divisional Winners, 25 points
Finalists - Einstein Field, 40 points
Winners - Einstein Field, 50 points

Chairman’s – Championship, 80 points
Engineering Inspiration Award – Championship, 45 points
Rookie All-Star, 25 points
Rookie Inspiration, 20 points
Woodie Flowers/Judges, 15 points
Dean’s List, 8 points

Highest score / Highest Rookie Seed, 10 points
Robot based award, 25 points
Non-placement award, except previously mentioned, 10 points
[Ranking Points as we've been playing with all season]

This does beg the obvious question of Einstein Semifinalists. I'm considering what to do with that (and any awards adjustments).
