Post-Nationals Poll Time! - Congrats to Whitman!

[AKKOLADE]

Send your top 25 to me at [email protected] . B teams are definitely permitted and, as appropriate, encouraged. I reserve the right to reject weird or stupid ballots, your name will be released, etc.

[Ondes Martenot]

Are these for current teams or is this a poll for next year's teams?

[AKKOLADE]

Current. We'll do a separate pre-season poll in August or September or something.

[closesesame]

When might we see results?

[AKKOLADE]

After I get more than five ballots!

Voting will be open until at least Wednesday. Until then, hurry up and vote please!

[BuzzerZen]

Vote you lazy people! Unless Fred doesn't want more ballots, in which case, post results, you lazy Fred!

[AKKOLADE]

I will post results tonight. Until then, vote!

[AKKOLADE]

We currently at ten ballots. Why don't we have more? We should have more.

People who have cast ballots and are, in turn, awesome:

Evan Adams
Neiman Tan
Fred Morlan
Gazi Rashid
Bryce Durgin
Dave Bykowski
David from Whitman
Colin O'Donnell
Quint Carr
Evan Silberman

People who haven't cast ballots and, as a result, suck:

Everyone else

[Down and out in Quintana Roo]

I would love to cast ballots, but i don't really agree that i "suck" because i've only seen two of the teams i'm going to vote for in live action. So... what exactly am i supposed to do? Remain "sucking" and not vote? Or vote without really any actual knowledge other than the scores i've seen here from HSNCT, PACE, etc.?

Sometimes seeing a team can just bias you one way or another. I figure the completely unbiased observer actually has the best chance of making an informed decision from the stats available.

David from Whitman

There's no David on our team...is this Daniel?

[Down and out in Quintana Roo]

So you think i should vote just based on the banter i hear here and the scores reported at nationals? That's substantial enough? If so, i'll give it my best shot.

How a team does on a nationals set against other national caliber teams is most certainly substantial evidence.

You can also check out head to head match-ups and other stuff about the assorted teams who did well at nationals on the Byko rankings, which I believe are linked off the homepage of this site.

Well that, and two national tournaments and numerous other tournaments.

So I screwed up and forgot MLK on my poll. I feel really badly for slighting a good team. If anyone's curious, they should be 15th on mine with everyone else getting bumped down.

Fredit: Colin sent me a corrected ballot before the deadline

[Stat Boy]

That would not be okay.

[gonzagaeagleahy]

Wish I could have submitted my poll but I was in Ireland. Overall the polls are fine. Besides 2 or 3. The top 10 for everyone were all pretty consistent.
