2006 Pre-Kickoff FF -- IT'S ON!

[Billfred]

Well, we discussed it earlier this year. And I think that we're just crazy enough to actually do it. The idea of a Pre-Kickoff league was based off some long-forgotten discussion about teams and their reputations. Let's put it to the test.

The league runs just like any other Fantasy FIRST league, with a few modifications:

1) Any team competing in the 2006 FRC is fair game.
2) All trading, drafting, and other methods of picking a team cease at 11:59 PM the night before Kickoff.
3) The score that a team receives will be the average of the scores received at each event, including the Championship.

Unless the 2006 game requires serious revisions to it, the scoring system will be as follows:

Regionals:

(Seeding before selections)
20....1st seed
12....2nd and 3rd seed
6......4th through 8th
3......9th through 12th
2......12th through 16th

4......Quarter finalists
10.....Semifinalists
20.....Finalists
30.....Winners

42.....Chairmans
36.....Engineering Inspiration Award

15.....Rookie All-Star
10.....Rooke Inspiration
8......Woodie Flowers

2......Win(s)
-2.....Loss(es)
1......Tie(s)
8.......Highest score / Highest Rookie Seed

5....... Judges Award
2.......for every non-placement award, except previously mentioned

For the Championship:

(Seeding before selections)
20....1st seed
12....2nd and 3rd seed
6......4th through 8th
3......9th through 12th
2......12th through 16th

10....Semifinalists - Division
15....Finalists - Division
25....Divisional Winners

We'll have signups from now until the 17th, with no real limit on entrants.

Fair enough.

As for the number of teams, I'm up for staying with three, unless someone has a moving reason for us to go to four.

wel i can tell you all one thing its probably gunna have to do something with a square or a cube cuz think two years ago it was a sphere or circle (First logo) and last year was a triangle or tetra (first logo) and 3 years ago it was boxes (first logo) so were guessing boxes but we could be terribly wrong. lets just wait and find out ehhh
