Matches would play out and we would crown a District championship alliance. Teams would continue to be ranked in their respective district systems and qualify worlds based on rank.

Houston: Typical world championship with teams from across the globe, including teams that qualified at the super district championship.

Just an idea considering I'm guessing FIRST now has contracts with both Detroit and Houston to bring 400+ teams to the city.
I like the idea of turning the first event into a super-regional and the second one into the actual world championship. The biggest problem is that the teams that qualify for champs from that super-regional now have a week to arrange plans for worlds.
