This PDF has the standard points system that FIRST released in October.

To the OP's question, by my ( UNOFFICIAL) count you guys earned 76 points:
- 12 Qualification Wins (2pts each): 24pts
- #1 Alliance Captain: 17pts
- 3 Elimination Rounds Won (10pts each): 30pts
- Industrial Design Award: 5pts
Maybe someone from FiM or MAR can comment on a typical cutoff for the District Championship based on their experience, but I'd say it's a pretty sure thing.* We are in a similar situation (my count has us at 63pts) and we are going to start planning for a trip to Boston.
*That doesn't mean you can slack off at your second District though.  Any points you earn there still get counted toward your total to qualify for the World Championship. |
Actually for the alliance captain the points are 17-x with x being the alliance you are the captain of. So they would have earned 16 points for being the captain of the #1 Alliance which would give them a total of 75 points.
We will have to wait and see exactly where the cut off for earning a spot for the DCMP is.
