Cities like Middletown and Waterbury (from the teams you mentioned) and of course Boston (6 teams), Worcester (4 teams) and others will look like they just have one dot.

This does have the effect of improperly showing less team density in certain areas. If I could figure out how to have it put a number on those, or change the size of the dot, I would. If anyone has a CSV file of the teams in NE that includes a street address, I will import that and that should fix the problem, save for teams with the exact same street address (if there are any).
Thanks, that clears that up!

If you put the data in google sheets, you can do the map marker and you'll have bubbles sized to the # of teams there. I recently downloaded Tableau (that's what the person who did the map for Michigan team density did and it looked great) to do the same there though, because with the google sheets map, it's "smallest" size is the continental US. Which is workable for mapping teams in Texas. probably not so much so NE. *EDIT* - here's a link to my google sheet for reference: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...5mQ/edit#gid=0 - it takes a long time to load because it basically does a search for every one of the cities

Thanks for the tip - that's a good way to go about it. The map I made is made from "Google My Maps". I hadn't make a map in a google sheet before, I will have to give that a try.

Does anyone have any info on LI, HVR or Montreal, such as when dates will be officially be posted?

If this is accurate and my high school level French is correct, looks like Montreal is week 4.

I guess they didn't get the memo that every event in the area is supposed to be week 3 this year. As much as we've been complaining in NY, Montreal teams have it even worse, having only the Montreal event to go to, and the only other driving distance event is hours away, across a border, and the next week. I bet TVR is going to get a good number of Montreal teams this year who used to compete for their second event in Ontario.

I emailed them a while back after Rocket City and Smoky Mountains ended up on the same week. They didn't offer what week it would be, but Queen City will be moving from Cincinnati to Dayton because their venue is unavailable, they told me.

I have a big feeling TVR and FLR are going to get flooded with a lot of Canadian teams. I look forward to it, as it helps provide diversity and bring in all sorts of new levels of competition. With both events already being so strong with everyone so evenly matched, this year may be even harder and closer of an event unless someone has a super outside the box design that reins supreme.

Was hoping Idaho would get moved to week 6 to facilitate more teams coming from Colorado & the SF Bay area. Last year the event hosted 30 teams with room for at least 12 more. Help fill the field... https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...548675_o.jp g

That's a shame it's Week 5. It'd be fun to come up there.

Does anyone know when the Hudson valley event is, or how big of an event it's supposed to be?

I heard a while back from someone on the regional planning committee that it was most likely going to be Week 4. For anyone who wants to go to it and TVR/FLR, get ready for good old back-to-back events
