And then at the end of the regular season, the top X teams from each group go to Worlds. Like say 1592, 1986, 1983, 175 could all end up in the same group(there would be more than 4 but those are the 4 that came to mind first) but 1592 plays at Orlando, 1986 at GKC, 1983 at Spokane, and 175 at Boston; say they all win the regional undefeated, then each team would have the same number of "group points" towards getting that slot at Worlds.

Interesting. I'm not sure I like competing for a slot at CMP with teams I'll never see, but I'm not going to dismiss it out of hand just because of that. Having teams in different groups competing at the same event would make for some really "interesting" politics. Possibly even more interesting than what already goes on.
