Also, on a more practical note - I'd guess that most game pieces that are small enough and cheap enough to be produced upwards of 100 per event would probably be so small and easy to manipulate that a good team might actually be able to score a significant portion of that - enough to start to crowd out other teams, which would violate the whole "effectively individual matches" idea. If you did actually individual matches (one robot on the field at a time) then it would work (with fewer qualification rounds, I'd hope!) and you could add some sort of team challenge for elims with two or three on an alliance. However, that's not what FIRST ordered with the fields. I like the concept, though.
