Random match schedules in Israeli regional

Ok...
So the qualifying matches alliances are claimed to be random at our 3 year reginal as there are no Veteran (7+ years old) teams...
BUT, there are proofs that there is no way at all it was random...
My team, 1947, played 7 matches out of a total 11 with team 1567, 3 of those matches were also with team 2012. How random is that?

Furthemore the poor team 1937 lost all of their matches in the regional. Looking for the reason to the failure of their not-so-bad machine, i was amazed to find out that ALL of their matches were played against the best robot of the regional MisCar 1574. There is absolutely no way that those schedules were random.

I suggest that for next year cheif delphi members unite and write a normal algorithm for FRC regionals once and for all, in a way that all teams get to play with and VS. as many teams as possible, and even better if its possible to create such an algorhitm even before the Nationals, because it could really misjudge some of the teams true potential and cause a worse regional than possible.

Was that a common problem in other regionals to? or is it just here?.

Yes, it was a problem at other regionals. We ahve been having an ongoing discussion about the problem at this tread: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=55178

The alliances are not determined, as I understand, by your year's of experience, but from your team number. The lowest third of team numbers will be in Pool A, and will NEVER be partnered with each other. The middle third of team numbers will be in Pool B and will NEVER be partnered with each other, and the same for the highest third of team numbers in Pool C.

I have already directed my opinions on this system to the appropriate thread and will be following up in the feedback sessions.
