That was a system they apparently used in '02 (though I don't remember it) where they put teams in "blocks" of five into a division. With the system used recently, 179 and 180 would not be in the same division.

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?

Yeah. I am hoping that the nationals do stay in Atlanta. Atlanta is extremely conveniant. Easy transportation everywhere. Good places everywhere to eat. Everything is just so close to each other. And just think about it drivers, you are standing in the place Michael Vick once stood at some point in time or at a spot.

I think I might just be a little biased towards it because most of my team ives about 20 miles away from the Georgia Dome. This is about an hour 15 min long drive during rush hour.

Or just maybe Michael Vick should be thinking, I am in the same place Dean Kamen, Woodie Flowers, Andy Baker, and Bill Beatty all stood at the same time.

Teras, three sided alliances, three rows of three goals, etc. Anybody else think that FIRST might go and put us in by groups of 3? I'll post a list of what this might look like when i get time.

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?

Now if FIRST really wanted to get crazy they could use a randomizer to set the divisions but there is too much risk of having too many powerhouses in one division or too many roookies and such. I think the 1,2,3,4 system makes thing easy on them.

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?

So, with four divisions there will be eighty-odd teams per division. Which would work out to about six or seven matches per team in qualifying. Not a whole lot, is it? What do you suppose the chances are of FIRST running five divisions? That would get us down to 60-some teams per division. And really mess up a great Newton lineup (16, 25, 56, 88, 103, 233 and the list goes on).

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?

Five divisions would make for an exceedingly odd Finals bracket, though. There's no really good way to pick which alliances gets byes and which two have to play an extra game.

EDIT: Unless we institute a wildcard system of some sort. Or some sort of BCS system, maybe......

Yeah, five would be weird - but if there were six divisions and then a three-sided tree to put new meaning in "triple play" ... Nah

Well, at least fewer matches mean fewer hikes back to the pits!
