: At At the New England Competition, I did not observe any ''prealliances''.
Any team we spoke to was asked if they were still ''available'' if asked
and no one said they were committed to some other team. Did I miss something?
: Okay, so who would believe that 4, yes 4 teams turned down Wild Stag, the #2 seed because each of them had made deals with other lower ranked teams! With that in mind, how many think that the alliances will be set up even before we get to Florida? And if you want to consider something else - How many of you would consider being partnered with Chief Delphi - now that you know what we bring to the party? Just a strawman poll - no obligations, no deals at this time, just want to test the waters - and maybe avoid the embarassment of being turned down (3 teams declined our offer as well) I know what our policy is regarding back room deals beforehand - but what about the rest of you? Let's hear what you all think!
