I’m exited to watch this, hopefully 744 will get a mention.:smiley:

Alex, I would be glad to have Shark Attack, I expect you to be in the first two rounds.

Aye, I expect 744 to be very high up there. We’re remaking our shooter based upon what we saw on your bot, plus a specific feature of our bot we want to keep :D.

I suspect that 67 wasn’t in the first couple of picks only because there are several CA picks to get through first.

Or because we think the robots we picked are better… The RCA is a very nice added bonus.

Is there a new scoring system with division awards? And why should a RCA count, because it is still a slim 1 in 40 (?) chance that they will win the National, or does Regional factor into points still?

It’s just that the RCA gives a chance to get it at championships. So picking teams like 217 that are on the same level of play as 67 and have that 1-40 shot are better than just having a good team with no shot at CA.

Ok. Thank you.

Ah, yes. I forgot about that. As we are using last year’s system, and it worked, here it is, for reference.

Scoring values:

Standard seeding points and W-L-T record points, all others as shown

5…Quarter finalists - Division
10…Semifinalists - Division
15…Finalists - Division
25…Divisional Winners

40…Finalists - Einstein Field
50…Winners - Einstein Field

80…Chairmans - Nationals
45…Engineering Inspiration Award - Nationals
25…Rookie All-Star
20…Rookie Inspiration
15…Woodie Flowers/Judges

10…Highest score / Highest Rookie Seed
25 points for a robot based award
10…for every non-placement award, except previously mentioned

I’m also assuming that the Randomizer works the same way as last year; that is, the random list starts at the 101st team in FF ranking and proceeds downwards from there.

Yep though I suspect that we won’t need it this time around.

And I assume the normal 2 pts per win, 1 pt per tie, -2 pts per loss?

Yep. W-L-T and standings are the standard regional scoring. It’s just that most of the other awards are worth more now (or not available at the regional level).

Divisions are posted HERE

With the almost guaranteed alliance of 2056 and 1114 getting together in Archimedes, going to have to go with the Canadians, eh? We’ll see if the arguments about the depth of 2056’s opponents at their regionals was correct.

Quick question for anyone reading… are most people sending in lists or are people just kind of making tentative lists and are going to pick as the picks come up Saturday? Because I don’t even know where to start on a list.
