(Seemingly) Irrational alliance selection decisions?

One another note, I'd imagine at Minnesota Regionals that teams are very careful during alliance selection when they announce they're picking 2502 or 2052.

Yeah alliance selection reps at the 10,000 lakes regional have to say it slowly when saying either 2502 or 2052. It's quite funny sometimes because you can notice the rep saying it slower than inviting any other team because they want to make it clear which team they are picking.

Yeah, it's a bit tricky.
