Here is a Google Sheet of all teams and their assignments.
The “all” tab has everyone and then they are also sorted by division.

I just casually refreshed the divisions.co history page and my screen was just covered in “Added to [xxxx] division” unexpectedly. Very quickly rushed to post it on the team Slack, of course.

Are schedules out yet?

Well the fight is going to be in Carver and Newton…

Have schedules ever been published more than 24 hours in advance?
… so probably not. Sorry :slight_smile:

Wondering if it’s premature to predict a 118 1678 return to glory a la 2015.

Newton is definitely the stacked division.

Probably too soon, on the other hand it would NOT be surprising…

Carver is stacked as well. 971, 987, 1671, 2122, just to name a few.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure any of the top-4 alliances would have pretty much equal chances to win the division. (Also don’t forget 971’s anagram team, 179)

Darn, and I thought 900 had bad luck at champs in 2014… there’s bad luck, and then there’s ending up in Newton this year.

Ya got me there…

They will not likely pair up as both are KPa bots. It will likely be a replay of Las Vegas.

Just my $.02

IMHO I think that the dark horse here is Hopper. You have 1619, 2848, 3132, and 4613

Would you be willing to share the calculations behind these comparisons?

Does anyone know how many past world champions there are in the Newton Division?

I count 6: 118, 120, 180, 330, 1678, 5012.

Ehh, not so bad really. There’s ending up in Newton this year, and then there’s ending up in Newton last year.
