Re: Rule 8.4.1

I agree with the change. As for the 1st and 2nd team earning their spots, I agree also. But they should be able to win with just about any other team. They got there with the help of at least 16 other teams (8 matches).

As for the top teams not wanting to pick the lower place teams, I say Bunk!. In our first year Team 111 picked us (place 42 out of 50) and we went all the way to 2nd place.

Now to stir up some controversy.
I think the 1st place (2nd, 3rd, etc) team should not be able to pick any of the other 7 top teams.

I think the 1st place alliance should play the 2nd place, 3rd play 4th etc
