What happened in Curie???

[Jonathan Norris]

Thats how it goes, 2 points Saturday morning we would have seeded 3rd, instead we seeded 10th. As a rookie team we knew that it was going to be difficult to be selected as a second round team, and having a communication error in our last match on Friday hurt our stats for Friday night. Without that match where we were dead it put us right in with the teams selected in the second round, but we know that with the quality of teams in the hunt as second picks it was going to be tough to get picked.

We were praying that two teams would pick within the top 8 so that we could move up into the 8th seed, and I can tell you we put quite an effort into scouting and would have made a tough 8th alliance. But i've been around long enough to know that this alliance selection went as normally as it could have, and if teams picked and declined properly we shouldn't have moved up. So if anything I applaud the teams in the top 8 for making some solid alliances.
