I agree that this is a GREAT addition to the rules.

In the past I have seen teams at regionals in a 'standby' position and never get a chance to play in the elimination rounds.

In some cases a team would "win" the regional and never even power up their 'bot.In other cases a team may have been able to affect the outcome of their alliance but the alliance captain never gave them a chance to play.

This rule will force the issue and ALL of the teams in an alliance will have to prove their mettle in eliminations. A great idea (I wish I had thunk it!)
