I would surely make a formal request for some kind of answer on this. FIRST doesn't think they're going to change Hawaii's mind, do they? 40 teams is 40 teams...
Don,
FIRST doesn't need assistance in completing the forms. It was a simple "No."

The best response was "We've always done it this way in the past."
I beg to differ after 14+ years and traveling to many US regionals across the US.

Sorry for the rant......its quite the challenge being on a relatively small little rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean trying to compete like everyone else.
