I think this is a great move for FIRST. We are becoming a larger competition and I am incredibly happy that we have reached the point where there are enough regionals/State Championships to fill nearly all Championship slots with winners. Congrats to FIRST.
If you want to go to Championships and your team doesn't qualify go with some friends and pick a team and cheer for them. Better yet, volunteer! I've had just as much fun with friends and volunteering as I had when I was on Stang. I can't wait to see the competition this year.

I completely agree, and as FIRST grows, that's the way things will have to be. If you want the best chance possible to go to championships, build the best bot you can.
