How biased are CD polls

Ancient doesn't necessarily mean bad, but ancient things do fall out of use, otherwise I'd be tapping this out in morse code or writing it in Latin. - Greg McKaskle [more]

Also, keep in mind that this is only recording a team's first event. We got knocked out in quarters at our first event because of some really bad luck, then made it to finals at our second event, won chairman's and went to Einstein. The first event alone is hardly a metric for a team's overall performance in a given season.
