Re: The Rest Of The Best

An interesting thought inspired by Jesse's post. What if the wait list spots were prioritized to go to teams who attended the same event as teams who earned multiple bids?

For example, since 2056 grabbed four championship bids (three regional wins and a RCA), the three spots created for wait list teams would be awarded to teams that attended the same regionals as 2056 (GTR-E, GTR-W, Waterloo). It could be done via a points system or simply by first to register (as it is now).

In essence, this is accomplishing a similar feat to the District championship point system, allowing a set number of robots from each event to attend the championship. It also opens the door for teams that are perennially "stuck" behind high end competitors that dominate events.
