Re: 2008 Championship Division Predictions

I wrote a script that checks to see if divisions have been released and send an email or a text message. I'm too lazy to write a input script, so PM me with your text message email address if you want to be added.

Re: 2008 Championship Division Predictions

Once the list comes out, is it possible they may still add pending teams with unique circumstances, but NOT change the list order?
This happened back in 2005, I believe, where our Hawaiian teammate friends, 368 was the last team to be added. However, the list already came out and they did not reshuffle the list to fit them in. We were so happy that they were in our division, then got changed last minute to fill up another one since they were 1 short.

I would hate to be in Gallileo right now! That is one stacked division.

I had to hit both threads, seeing as how the issue relates to both of them.

Re: 2008 Championship Division Predictions

I've read a lot about 1114 winning over all... and yeah them jocks got a good bot... now if them team with 1024 again I'm sure it will be a clean sweep .
1114 vs 1024...mmm tough battle, tough call. I'm sure both team have been working on new surprises for Big A... both have awesome bots.
So much of this game is going come down to the wire and avoiding penalties.

Either way I'm sure 1114 & 1024 will be cupped up and ready for battle...
my $$$ on 1024 .

While 1024 has an exceptional robot I think their strength is in hybrid, whereas 1114 is the best hurdling machine AND has the best hybrid. There really is no question between the two.

Re: 2008 Championship Division Predictions

No ones talking about the defending champs!
They win the world title, then top it off with probably their best season ever, and yet under the radar again...............
In addition to their great robot, I notice that their driving has been consistently even more impressive, despite an ever present defense on them.
987, ftw!

Re: 2008 Championship Division Predictions

I have a question-
Are the two predictions on TheBlueAlliance an assumption or is one of these two?

In other words, should i cross references and begin scouting or should i wait for tomorrow?

Thanks.

You should definitely wait. These two are only predictions.

I would love to see FIRST come along with a selection method that would throw all predictions out the window.

A few years ago (2002, 2003?), they made division selections something like this:

a,a,a,a,a, b,b,b,b,b, c,c,c,c,c, d,d,d,d,d

That would throw people for a loop, for sure.

All of this prediction stuff is silly.

They are both just guesses. FIRST used the normal algorithm until last year. Last year they basically used the normal algorithm, but they shuffled it a little bit.

Ive noticed no one is really analyzing last years shuffle or talking about possibility of a shuffle this year. We should find out the real divisions soon (I hope the suspense is killing be). Of course it is never too early to start scouting.

EDIT: Did anyone just notice it went back down to 340 teams, Who dropped?
