Re: Crate Swap - Bayou Regional

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding.

If a rookie team qualifies for the championship, they have to ship the machine from the regional location straight to championship. Correct?

If I'm wrong, and the team would be able to come home, build a crate, and then ship the machine at a later date, you're right and the program wouldn't be all that valuable.

However, based on my understanding of the rules, a rookie team that does not have crate for shipment to the championship would have to forfeit their opportunity to go to St. Louis.

My point is that rookie teams don't know when they show up, whether or not they will qualify for the championship. If they each want to secure the opportunity in case they qualify, they would each have to build a crate.

Thanks again for the feedback, Alan. I appreciate you helping to get us on track.
