Ramp Riot has always been 5 matches and I don't see that changing.

2- We have been conducting (4) Team alliances in eliminations for the past (5) years. (similar to 2014 champs) We plan to keep this format.
Will you consider modifying the point system to allow for the 4th partner of an alliance?
On question 1: Yes, it extends in both directions. I just listed what I thought would be the most common amounts. Win in a 5-match event, it's 4.8 points. If WVROX runs 24 qualification matches, it'll be 1.0 points per win.

On question 2: Still working on the fourth robot matter. Chris has valid points, and we're trying to figure out the best way to handle the various scenarios (Championship-style or backup-style) uniformly.
