Re: Championships - Qualification Only Event?

HOF --- 20?
Last year's Einstein teams --- 12
Legacy teams - 10?

Approximate Number of possible qualifiers for this year = 426

With the new Wild Card system.... the only way to reduce this is to have some of the pre-qualified teams take up some of the qualification positions without gaining wild card slots... I would imagine that certainly more than half of the pre-qualifiers will do that... bringing the numbers down to around 400... which is the number we had last year.


Can someone clean these numbers up? I did a quick shot at this...
I would imagine that there is overlap on some of the Legacy/Einstein/HOF teams already...

What are the real numbers?
Is my assumption about the District qualifiers correct too?
Is my number of districts correct?

Interesting... looks like no non-qualifiers this year... or just a handful
Don't forget some of the HOF and Legacy teams overlap.
51, 191 and 151 are both a HOF and Legacy team as well the other four 20, 45, 126 and 190 are not in the Hall of Fame yet.
