Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/2013 Championship Registration/2013 FRC Season Dates and Deadline
So lets say those same 8 teams went off to win 2-3 more regionals each, and maybe an EI or an RCA along the way. The spot that they took up goes to the waiting list (last year) which has no corolation at all to robot performance. Now when they qualify multiple times, their additional spot(s) goes to a team that is in the position they are from a high performing robot. In Texas, the next 8 teams with the "best" robot will qualify, instead of random teams which could very well be the worst team in Texas.
I fail to see how the wildcards (and disticts) lowers the level of teams competing at championships.
