i doubt that...i think that most of the additions we will see are rookie teams as all the other teams had oppertunity to sign up openly.

What makes you guys think this year's fields will be named Newton, Cure, Archimedes, and Galileo? I've heard some new names floating around..... ;)

Meh. Some veteran teams don't have the support to go unless they were to win by qualifying. For instance, 1168 is a third-year team that has never gone to nationals. Although we could have signed up during the open registration period (heck, I really wanted to), there wasn't enough support from other team members and our school to do so. However, if we were to win at our regional, I can almost guarantee that my team would be so motivated to go that we'd be able to raise the money and get the permission to go.

Yes same here, except it wasnt a money issue. Our coach wouldnt let us go unless (i believe) we got to the finals of a regional. But we won sacramento, so were going anyways.

Well there's two more weeks of competition so anything is possible.

We are registering for championships. It will take a bit more fundraising, but we will get there.

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?
 
How does the breakdown work for which divisions each team is in? Do they randomly place us or do they just go by order like Ed did up there? Sorry, I never really knew how FIRST did it. Does anyone have any clue how they divide us up?

Re: 2005 Championship Divisions!?
 
Somebody at FIRST is reading this post, now that people are speculateing FIRST will probably just throw a curve ball and start with 1671, 1648, 1610, 1517 working backwards, just so they could laugh at us for trying to figure out their system. (if it was nice and even with 4 teams across the bottom row it wouldnt really matter)

But hey if FIRST wants to put 1071 and 126 in the same divison we won't complain ;-)

This is the way FIRST has been doing this the past few years. It's easy for them so I doubt they could care less about some specualtive post on a messageboard.

I overheard some of the FIRST people talking at Florida and the Boilermaker regionals - they are looking at naming the fields after companies that want to sponsor the field, sort of like sports arenas. It will be a great fund-raiser for FIRST and help keep the cost down for teams.

Top candidates so far - Coke, Pepsi, Sprint, Verizon and American Express.

How about Bud, Coors Light, Jack Daniels, Marlboro, and Skoal, or would those sponsors not present the right image for FIRST.
