[FTC]: 2016-17 Game Manual Part 1 released!

[ArtemusMaximus]

I am reading "4.6.8 Alliance Selection"

If there are more than 20 Teams, the same method is used for each Alliance Captain’s second choice
(the third member of the Alliance) from highest seed to lowest seed (i.e. 1 → 2 → 3 → 4). Any Teams
remaining after the lowest seeded captain makes their choice do not compete in the Elimination
Matches

So I understand it is like this
1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4, 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4
and not like in FRC ?
1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4, 4 -> 3 -> 2 -> 1

Am I reading this right?

That is correct (and how FTC has been at least since I started)

Aha, I see. I had only 1 FRC season, and this will be my second FTC season. Last season we had only 17 teams so didn't have to deal with second round picks.
