Re: Back to back regionals
254 rules of thumb:
week 1 regionals are the worst and are like paying $4,000 to beta test the game and field for FIRST.
back to back regionals are slightly less bad, but still awful. It's a ton of stress on the mentors; the kids and mentors have to miss school/work two weeks in a row. There's zero time to implement any modifications/upgrades/etc to the robot. If you're going to a non-local regional you all but have to pay a boatload extra for Shepard to get your robot there on time, as it traditionally has to arrive at the venue by Tuesday.
