Hilarious - it reminded me of a call today at work. But they missed the pleas, "Would everyone not talking please put their phones on mute?"

The event is now much smaller. It has 15 less slots than last year.

I wonder what this and Indiana going to districts will do to the Midwestern Regionals this year.

It's not a new venue, the arena was renamed.

Since it is the same venue (with a new name), I'm sure they will end up booking the same number as last year.

Regionals usually start with a low cap and raise it later in the registration timetable, to reserve spots for rookies, local teams, etc. This cap will likely go up at a later date.

It's not necessarily smaller as many events have a lower initial capacity for initial registration in order for the event to be able to include as many rookies and local teams as possible before teams that travel sign up for a second regional. My guess is that the Midwest regional will be fine as it only had 3 Indiana teams sign up for it.

Edit: compwiztobe beat me to it.

Then again, WI was full to the brim last year, and even had 40 teams submit for Chairman's. The judges were judging presentations straight from 8am to 5pm Friday and 8am to lunch Saturday. Maybe they are aiming for a lower number of max teams.

Guess we'll all see in time :)

I wonder if the amount of teams that submitted for Chairman's there last year was related to the fact you could present at as many regionals as you attended. I know if I was at team attending multiple regionals I'd present at every event as it's good practice even if you are not entirely ready.

Well, that's nice and late for Greater DC. I'll take it.

Hopefully they fix the sight lines problem this year. Other than that, I thought it worked out great last year.

Oh, for sure -- however from the data we collected after the season (which is not all, I know), no other regional even hit 30 submissions:

Percentage-wise there were competitions with more submissions, but when we are talking 15 min set aside per team, 10 more teams is 2.5 more judging-hours.

It has certainly been noted and I believe a solution has been worked out.
