As far as I am aware, one of the goals for the event is to get every team 10 matches. If we did 2v2 in quals, it would mean making the event substantially longer. Also, then changing the game entirely for eliminations would throw all of these rookie drivers and refs/scorekeepers off for when it matters. Also consider that backups will likely be needed for elims. If every team is on an alliance then there may not be anyone on reserve.

Maybe we could instead be a little relaxed on turn around times between matches or have a driving frame as a qualifications reserve. If I'm correct, this is what battlecry at WPI has done. I just personally disagree with running 2v2 matches, and especially if it's not going to be consistent throughout the event. I think it just takes away from the "officialness" of the competition by straying from the actual game.
