That would be five regional championships between the three teams

I'd like to see FIRST try and actually keep alliances together.. Would be interesting to see what would happen... Also a NCAA style would be awsome..

Take overall winning %, finalist, and champions and rank it according to all the regional standings.. I'm sure somebody here at CD would be bored enough to figure out that system

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?

omg a 90 alliance bracket would be soo amazing
a real fantasy first would emerge --- north south east and west divisions
seeded by some performance %
so only the top 360 teams go
or the top 360(in sets of 90 are randomally split into divisions)30 teams select for what ever amount of time 2 alliance partners.. of course starting at the bottom
30-1
then
1-30 again
so 1 picks twice in a row
and they play all qualifying matches with the same alliance - and the top 8 go on
of course this is stupid

Last year there were 84 teams playing 2 vs. 2. We played 7 matches. With the 3 vs 3 format we should be able to play 9. I think FIRST listened to the teams gripe about playing so few matches when they increased to the 3 vs 3.

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?

The problem is the match time turn around which is more than last year. But let's say they did fit in 8-9 matches. There's still going to be a lot of undefeated teams just due to the amount of teams in each division. Many of them will have made it due to good alliance pairings. It may be difficult to get super alliances put together. I hope that fancy algorithm works this time and we actually do get to play with/against new teams each match. That would help the problem. At both of our regionals we played with or against a few teams more than once.

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?

Ok, correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like 69 has dropped out. If this is not the case, anyone know why 69 is no longer listed? There are a total of 338 teams signed up, so there's a possibility of 2 more still signing up before registration closes.

EDIT: Also just noticed that 1019 is no longer listed... not sure if there are any others as well that dropped.

Wow, good catch Jess. Team 69 was definitely one of the favourites in my mind. I know they won two regionals last year, but didn't attend the championship. I guess they want to continue that trend.

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?

Keep in mind that the list that's up there currently is a list of teams that have registered to go to Champs. They haven't necessarily paid yet. If 69 registered and then discovered they couldn't raise funds to attend for whatever reason, I'd commend them for dropping out now while there's still time for another team to get in.

When we talked to them at LA, they were not going to be going to nationals.

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?

We're gonna need some heavy duty goals in that division, cuz those things are gonna collapse during finals. That's pretty absurd. Every alliance will likely be able to cap 15-18 per match.
