Does anyone know where I can find the latest MAR rankings?
I know one set was released on 3/9 over here.
Where are the weeks since?
The spreadsheet linked to by that URL has been updated to include the Week 2 MAR Events, but has not yet (to my knowledge; Dropbox is blocked at work) been updated to reflect Lenape. But when it is, that link should be the right one.
I would guess that the MAR folk need a bit of time to update for the Lenape District since it just ended yesterday.
For what it’s worth, there were no Week 3 MAR events, hence why the last update was 3/9.
I spent some time an manually updated their spreadsheet to reflect Lenape last night.
When I get home from work I could possibly post an unofficial version or let people know where they stand unofficially on a team by team basis.
Did this at work today here is what I have. I can post the spreadsheet in a google doc if people would like that, it was just easier to copy and paste from excel though.

I have been predicting for a couple weeks that the threshold between the 60th and 61st ranked MAR teams (the threshold between being invited to MAR Championship or not) will fall within a couple points of 35 points. The updated rankings (with 4/5 of the MAR points available rewarded) seem to confirm that. Keep in mind that it is likely that not all teams will accept their invitation, so teams after 60th place may still be able to attend.
Interesting, and just to ask, are you sure it’s 60 teams? I’ve seen a variety of numbers, ranging from 50 teams (in a packet/brochure/program given out at Rutgers) to 54 (can’t recall where I read this one, somewhat makes sense given the 5 Chairman’s auto-qualifiers) to 60 (in the MAR supplement).
I am not 100% confident in the number, but it is the one I have heard tossed around most often. The MAR Supplement is also, to me, the most “official” of the documents you listed.
The number attending the MAR Championship was stated as 60 in the Supplemental Rules, but has to be reduced due to changes in the setup at Temple. This should be firmed up soon but will be in the 52-54 range.
Thanks for clearing this up.
Unfortunately, this is likely the difference between Dawgma qualifying for the event and sitting at home. 
Unfortunate, but true. If Carol is in fact correct, which it sounds like she is, FIRST (or MAR) should announce it officially, so teams that might think that they are going to Philly, or are unsure if they are going or not, can have a definite answer before making plans.
Thanks for the clarification. In this case, I think that 40 points is going to be close to the “magic number”.
Carol,
While on the subject, do you know if there have been any changes at all regarding what qualifies teams at Philly to advance to St. Louis?
Also, if they are reducing the number of teams being able to attend Philly due to the setup at Temple, are they going to downsize teams’ pits as well?
If that’s the case, this weekend just got a lot more interesting for a LOT more teams!
For example, after the top 8 teams, seeding really doesn’t matter for points, but wins do.
So if you’re 27th or something, and you essentially have no shot at making top 8, do you go for the coopertition bridge and maybe lose? Or do you continue to score more points and insure the win while forgoing the bridge?
Just some things to consider for teams attending Mt Olive This weekend (mine included)
I think it’s safe to say that not all top 52-54 teams will attend either due to financial or logistical reasons - heck, I’ve heard of teams that had no plans on going because they were already going to the ‘real’ CMP - so all hope is not lost. In the event that a team in the top 52-54 declines it’s spot, it’ll go to the next highest ranked uninvited team.
From a Don Bowers email after week 2 -
“To date the only three teams that have qualified for the Regional Championship are the three Chairman’s Award winners - #11, #433, and #1218. For the Regional Championship we expect 52 teams from our field of 99 to qualify and compete.”
It seems like an easy enough thing to crowdsource - I just put the week 2 results into a public Google Doc, feel free to edit/update. Might be nice for teams at Mount Olive to use as a resource if people are updating the results during the event/after day 1 there.
I’ll probably update in a couple hours if someone doesn’t beat me to it (jb/deetman?)
Update: The sheet should be up to date now.
Understood, but we currently sit at 49th, with one automatic qualifier (11) and more than 30 of the Mount Olive competitors behind us looking to leapfrog our standings. It would take a massive amount of declines for 1712 to be able to attend. Can’t blame anyone but ourselves for this predicament, though.
Updated the rankings on the doc linked above. 56 teams have completed their 2 qualifying events. It seems that 3553 and 896 haven’t competed at any events, leaving us with 97 teams total. 41 teams (assuming no 896) finish the MAR qualifying season at Mount Olive this weekend.
Of the 56 teams that are finished, the average accrued point total is 50.55, with 341 and 1218 leading the pack with 144! points each (seems fitting that they’re tied, no?). The midpoint of the list (#28 & #29 of 56) has team 2191 with 48 points and team 272 with 47.
So it seems likely at this point that 433 will be outside the cutoff (with 37 points after 2 events). Depending on how MORT and the future CA winner perform, that may mean that the cutoff could be as high as the 49th ranked team (with 1218 and 2590 already qualified via points).
With all that in mind, I would bet on the cutoff being somewhere in the high 40’s. Should be an awesome weekend.
I was not aware of this, thanks for the clear up!
