Are we allowed to switch out teams when they have already competed in one district? It would seem like you could compare it to switching out in the middle of an event.

I checked the rules on that, couldn't find anything.

I'd say ONE event is the limit for district teams. I seem to remember that being the ruling either this year or last year.

I'm looking to find it again, but that's the ruling I was going off from for these changes.

If this is the ruling, I would like to swap 2959 with 3548 and 4362 for 2851 (I know they haven't competed yet, would that only count their second event?) in FiM.

You'll end up with the average scores based on the alliance you have at the end of the district season.

All swaps have been processed, the Live Scoring sheet is up to date.

More fun visualizations. If you have any suggestions of things you want to see let me know.

Firstly the overall picture:




Week 2 stats ONLY:




Districts ONLY:

Also we shouldn't have recieved points from 68 since they played in a regional not a district.

Tippecanoe was a district event that 68 played at.

Ah right you are. Remind me to not check regional info at 3 am. xD

68 is from Brandon / Holly, Michigan. They were competing in Indiana.

This is the same situation as 27 or 217 competing at Buckeye this weekend. They're competing outside of their district. Appropriately so, 27, 68 and 217 do not get points for FiM based on their performances outside FiM.

In addition, 68 could not compete for Chairman's or Engineering Inspiration, as that would require them attending the Indiana District Championship. So they literally could not achieve the same number of points as any other team there, excluding 1701, which is also in the same boat (being from Michigan).

68 should not get FF points for Indiana. We don't allow them to be drafted in Indiana, so they shouldn't get FF points for competing in Indiana.

Your logic seems sound. I'd be one in favor of modifying the rules now or in the future to perhaps only include the first two events in district that a team competes at. There are other factors like bowing out of playoffs out of state, or at third plays in their own region that may mess with a team's average. It adds an inconsistency across teams that are drafted. Certainly something worth discussing in my opinion.

I would agree that this issue is worth discussing for the future, however, I believe the current ruling should stand through the season as I adjusted my picks accordingly to said rules (and I would suggest anyone do the same - play to the rules laid out even if they don't necessarily make sense).

Same here.

For this season, as noted, district teams playing in district events get their points averaged for all district events (regardless of district location), while district teams playing in regionals get the regional points they earn. Easiest way to sum it up.

For next season... we'll figure that out after the season ends.
