Echoing everyone else's statements about the changes, I think they are fair, and easily understood

The way I am reading it ANYTHING that gets you to champs gets the wildcard slot so should make for some teams who are perennially "bridesmaids" finally making it.
I am not so sure about the RAS change though, I get why but how would you feel if you were a Rookie Team and get the Rookie Inspiration Award, and then there is no Rookie All Star, it is almost like the Regional telling you: "Aren't you cute playing in the sandbox, now stay off the jungle gym that is for the big boys"

. Like I said, I get why just I think there are going to be some hurt feelings from rookies
EDIT:
Interesting to note that under the new system the entire finalist alliance at both Orlando and South Florida in 2013 would have qualified for championships
