One thing that a lot of people don't mention much is how big of a disadvantage it is to go to an early regional in the current CMP qualification system. If Week 1 is the only event you can attend then you arbitrarily lose out on the possibility of getting a wildcard slot, even if you lose to teams that do generate wildcards later.

When some team wins in Weeks 1 and 6, the runner up Week 1 should have just as much of a shot as the runner up when the wildcard slot is actually generated in Week 6. Only one of them can get it, but it shouldn't be based on when they competed. It should be based on something that matters.
