Re: Limit team $
This amuses me somewhat too. Being (originally) from Australia, consider teams outside the US - in Australia, Israel, Turkey... Limit the team $$$ and you limit this to a (mainland) North America competition.

I have some similar issues with the district model because of similar distance/cost issues, but that is for another thread somewhere.

Apart from that, I don't think you can reasonably limit the amount of money a team puts in to inspiration, for their own team or for the community beyond the team, if they are willing to work for it.
