Re: Do you like the seeding system?
This is probably the worst seeding system I have ever seen. When you have the ability to have a match where everyone (and not by collusion across the field) can play a 6v0 game, there is something HORRIBLY BROKEN about it. I am pretty unimpressed with the GDC this year. Between the ridiculous penalties and the utterly broken seeding system, I'd say this was the worst set of rules I've seen in my 7 years doing FIRST. The game would be AWESOME if these rules didn't suck the bloody life out of the game.
After losing 3, tying 1, winning 3, and our bot scoring 2 whole points the entire day, we were seeded 19th at the end of Friday. We could drive. Our kicker didn't work. Our hanger didn't work. We got like 15 penalties.
After we fixed most of the problems, we won two more, lost one more and then seeded 30th overall.
Win, and you are penalized. Do NOTHING and you are rewarded handsomely.
Explain to me, please, someone, how the hell this is possible.
