[EWCP] Championship Prediction Cast

[Andrew Schreiber]

Ok folks, we've been quiet this season because we've been cooking up something big. Instead of our usual talkshoe based blabfest where we talk about some teams we decided to make it a little contest.

Tuesday (4-22) at 9pm eastern we will be going live on the air (going to try to have video.ewcp.org point there) and doing a Championship Preview Cast unlike any before. We're going to be doing a draft on the air and explaining why the alliances are being picked that way. We currently have 7 teams made up of a combination of your traditional EWCP folks as well as a few others. Each team will make their pick and have 1 minute to justify it to the audience.

So, who is picking?

Team West Drost Drive
Eric Drost
Shan Rammah
Team Trinidad Jame$
James Temple
Brian Smist
Team FroCone
Dustin Benedict
Chris Picone
Team Scooby
Ethan "Scrappy" Miller
Steven "Scooby" Donow
Team Sliderule
Jeremy Bydlon
Andrew Spiece
Team Baker's Dozen (Name subject to change)
Nick Lawrence
Andy Baker

We've also partnered with GameSense and they will be comprising a picking team.

As you can see, we are still short one team. I'll let you know as soon as we figure out what is going on there, if any parties are interested feel free to PM me.


Since we have to also determine the alliance captains, the picking order will have a double pick for each first pick (teams pick their captain and first pick in a row). This makes the pick order:
1-1-2-2-3-3-4-4-5-5-6-6-7-7-8-8
8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8


Zachary Orr and I will be hosting this event and keeping everything on track.

How you can help? If there's not a picture of your bot on TBA get it up there, that's where I'll be going to display pictures of robots while the teams justify their pick.
