Re: Does CD affect alliance selections?

I see Chief Delphi as the "Wikipedia" of bot info -- it's a great place to get some surface knowledge, but you need to dig deeper to get the real nitty-gritty. Thankfully, couple CD with The Blue Alliance and SOAP108, and you've got a great opportunity to back up the talk with some actual research. Watch teams compete, check out their stats -- who they were with and against, etc.

What it all boils down to, however, is that all that info should only be used in an initial glance -- you have to see how the teams stack up against the teams currently at the event, and I don't mean by rankings. There are always a few teams that slip under the radar that perform exceptionally well but don't pull out the best records because they were consistently against powerhouses.

Re: Does CD affect alliance selections?

CD is a rumor mill. A few facts, lots of opinions and lots of regional bias. Better to gather your own information by efficient scouting and think for yourself. You will be much more satisfied with the outcome.

Re: Does CD affect alliance selections?

i go to another website like chiefdelphi (same vBulletin forum setup)and they call the affects caused by their forums the SD effect so i thought i should name this the SD affect.

i remember we did this once in 2005, we picked 343 at the Florida regional, just because we had fun with them the year before at the palmetto regional.

fyi: that website is www.SlickDeals.net ... now you guys know where the SD came from.
