Re: Championships - Qualification Only Event?
If I remember correctly, there is a waiting list you can get on and you'll have your "time" to attend Champs.

I believe that once all of FIRST has been set to regions and there are 8-12 of those "Region" championships, that the World Championship will be made Qualification only, which while unfair to those teams that aren't able to gain the luck necessary to qualify, those Region championships will end up gaining a lot more attention because of their ability to hand out tickets to Champs for more than just the usual ones now. For instance, the original top 8 seeds of each Regional Championship could get bids into the World Champs.

I had a huge re-imagining of the Champs qualifying, but haven't found the right day to post in on CD yet.
