Just out of curiosity, does anybody know why 359 missed champs in 2004 and 2007?

A quick look at The Blue Alliance shows they did not compete in 2004 and did not qualify in 2007. They did not earn Hall of Fame status until 2011.

Oops, forgot about that one, thanks for clarifying.

In 2004, I didnt sign up for FRC because our team and team 368 both decided to take a break and participate in Botball that year.
While it was a great program, our kids convinced us to do FRC once again because they missed participating in it. During the 2004 season, we never thought we would do FRC ever again.
In 2007, we could have signed up for Champs, but decided against going regardless of the outcome of our 2 regional events. That was the 1st time we ever traveled to the East Coast and it pretty much wiped out our entire budget that season. Our team also qualified for the Championships in 2001 but didnt bother signing up because of funding constraints.
Back then, going to Champs wasnt a big deal for us. We actually preferred going to regionals and Champs was a last priority.
