That way somebody doesn't end up with Mega Tento, Escape Velocity, and Chrome Fly.

I thought about that, but like, if somebody signed up for this, ignored every one of my posts and private messages about when it was and what to do if they couldn't make it., then I'm personally ok with them not getting any good bots. If you and the others think this is too vindictive then maybe I'll just use the seeded list. In answer to this: quote:How much time does someone have to draft? If everybody checks in at 9 and starts picking, I don't want suddenly start giving the hard cut off to people. I'd like everybody to be within 5 minutes, ideally less than that, with 8 people it should be enough to figure out your pick before your turn rolls around. I'll shoot reminders if somebody is taking too long. I think I mentioned this before but it should be possible to do this in around an hour, but I've blocked out about 2 hours for it. If we go over that time period we can schedule another time but we can probably just slowly finish off the rest of the picks throughout Wednesday.

If you sign up for this and don't care to participate a little bit, you should get what you get! I'm okay with being the 8th pick, picking two bots at a time will make it easy! I was going to just pick bots pretty much just by name recognition, but I don't want to end up picking 2 bots that are fighting in round 1 or 2... will have to actually look at the bracket.

Grognan posted:You were toasted by complete control right? What was broke on the bot? A couple pwm cables had the insulation melt off and were shorting against the positive lead, which kept the drive from responding to the radio. Replaced about $30 in parts (including the receiver and mixer to be safe) and the bot was as good as new.
