We missed you guys at Philly too! I'm going through withdrawal.
Nutritionally speaking I didn't get enough (MOE) green in my FIRST diet this year!

As I posted in the official 2006 Championship Divisions thread, these are the teams I am going to be watching the most on Galileo. Oh, and by the way, I love the Galileo userbars!

1. I am curious why you did not mention 1126 on your list. Aren't they capable of scoring 40 pts in the game.
2. I want to know why you selected 173, 830, 1276, & 1784. Do they have unique defensive capabilities?

I can tell you that 1276 was mentioned because they are excelent at scoring, can push almost anyone around and are extremely hard to push around with their 6 traction wheels and AM shifters. The reason that they haven't been mentioned much is that the reletive power rankings don't have all of the information from Manchester, their only regional where they pretty much dominated.

The top ten bots

1.177-2 regionals is hard to beat
2.1126-can't start a fire without Sparx
3.173-this pick enrages me
4.494-they are out of this world
5.16-Bomb Squad nuff said
6.1276-Best Blitz other than a football team
7.384-Sparky was a great bot at VCU
8.365-You have to be green to be seen and they are seen
9.1625-There is a reason Win is in their name
10.547-I F.E.A.R. them

Honorable mention
27
67
74
201
211
237-Could easily move up, and are in a good spot
1747

[Jeff Rodriguez]

Why are we (173) #3 and 237 not on that list?

[JackN]

I had seen and heard good things about RAGE and I just forgot about 237 *Smacks his head*

[Barry Bonzack]

Neither of my teams have been to the Championship before, and now they both are in the same division. This will be a very nice culture shock for them. I can't wait.

Let me start the cheering....

I forgot 1126. The list I typed out there was done by memory, not from any official stats. It's a combination of what I have observed, and what I remember hearing about on CD.

173 - has shown great promise since the beginning of the season in terms of shooting and playing defense.
830 - even though their statistics aren't "stellar" (due to bad luck), they have been a solid, reliable shooter throughout the season. A good second pick during alliance selections.
1276 - as explained above, 1276 has made a name for themselves as a shooter.
1784 - a great defensive/maneuverable robot, and have had an impressive performance their rookie season. They are also very cooperative alliance partners. Would make a great second pick during alliance selections.

Blair is the announcer on Galileo. he said it at UTC and when we talked to him in Boston. when we were saying goodbye he said "see ya on Galileo!" LOL woot.

[Cody Carey]

173 was pretty much the only bot we couldn't push sideways at Philly... That means that they deserve to be mentioned. That, and the fact that they score like nobodies business! I think that we need to stop mentioning people based on their various rankings, and start mentioning them based on their actual performance. Quite a few of the teams that haven't been mentioned yet will probably be top contenders.

[Cody Carey]

Oh yeah... and


Gali-leo!
