Re: Championship 2007 - Atlanta - What Needs To Be Improved
The Algorithm
Seriously, FIRST, this has got to go. A lot of people are complaining about it, and rightfully so. In no world should somebody in the top 10 in tube scoring in their division seed 66th (125). Putting a team at a purposeful disadvantage is borderline ridiculous. This led to other issues as well. To be quite frank, the finals were boring. I miss the days of the 2005/2006 finals, where it was a clash of the titans. The most deserving team got the #1 seed, and then picked who they thought was second best. Now it's normally a random team at #1, who will either pick a begrudging team that deserved to be #1, or will pick several of the best teams, who will decline (Newton 2006, Curie 2007 are examples, although the former didn't have the algorithm of doom). The opening ceremonies Please, show them on Galileo and Newton. I missed the WFA because I was in the stands in Galileo keeping some seats for the team. It would also make for a much faster transition from opening ceremonies to the first match. Speaking of the WFA, I would like to see it moved to Saturday afternoon. It seems devalued to have it when so many people can't see it. The schedule I don't like the way that the championships is structured. Practice day seems a bit pointless. I think that Thursday morning should be used for calibration and open practice, and then Thursday afternoon should have the opening ceremonies and a set of matches until about 6 or so. It lets all of the teams in a growing championships get more matches in. The awards/finals I don't like how *all* of the awards are intermixed with the finals. If the opening ceremonies are on Thursday, it gives more time to judge technical awards and they can be given Friday afternoon. That's all I can think of for now, I'll post again if I can think of more. Last edited by Daniel Brim : 16-04-2007 at 00:44. |
