2015 Waitlist Spots
FIRST has been handing out waitlist spots quite a bit earlier this year due to larger championship team size.
Current registered team count is close to 340 teams. Approximately how many of the remaining championship spots are still open for waitlisted teams ? |
Re: 2015 Waitlist Spots
I expect that there is somewhere around ~240 non wait list spots still up for grabs, so possibly ~20 wait list spots.

Re: 2015 Waitlist Spots
Well, there's over 100 teams that will qualify after district championships in Week 7, and plenty of teams that can qualify this weekend at Week 6 regionals. A lot more waitlist teams will make it into champs this year, but not EVERYBODY is going to obviously. Plus, I expect that a lot of waitlist teams would decline their invitations. We got off of the waitlist last year exactly one week before we had to depart. Trying to plan flights, building a crate, and plan everything within 12 hours was not really worth it.

Re: 2015 Waitlist Spots
Can someone do some analysis and generate the list of teams that are registered for champs from the waitlist?

Re: 2015 Waitlist Spots
If you were invited on the waitlist, what day did your team receive your waitlist invitation ?

Re: 2015 Waitlist Spots
We got our invitation last Monday, our last appearance in St Louis was 2013. We registered for the wait list the minute it was open.
I was a bit surprised that they didn't wait until after district championship this weekend. Spending $9K in one day was painful! |
Re: 2015 Waitlist Spots
We found out that we received the waitlist card on Friday afternoon. Thanks to FIRST in Texas we were able to pay off our registration today. We found out all this at the OKC competition.

Re: 2015 Waitlist Spots
Just to be sure, do district teams that receive a waitlist spot take up one of their district's allocated slots, or is it additional? I am expecting waitlist spots are separate from the district slots.

Re: 2015 Waitlist Spots
We were given a waitlist spot Thursday March 26th. They emailed us and said we have been taken off of the waitlist to participate in champs. Then we called to confirm and get everything set up.

Re: 2015 Waitlist Spots
Here's the list of teams qualified off of the wait-list, with the last time they qualified for champs. There may be some errors, as it was difficult to determine wildcard scenarios in some instances. The current number is ~70.
Code:
* = Never attended Championship (Year listed is rookie year) |

Re: 2015 Waitlist Spots
Team 1208 received a wildcard slot, not not a wait list slot.
