Re: Future First Championship News

So I've been thinking about ways to potentially make the proposed system work. The one that makes the most sense in my mind goes like this:

1. Hold the two Championships and go about the things that Championships do (except maybe changing the name to something like Super Regional).
2. Each Championship will have FOUR divisions.
3. Each division finalist will be invited to a Grand Championships to crown a true Champion. Thus EIGHT alliances from each "Super Regional" (SR) and a total of 64 teams invited.
4. The division winners will advance to Einstein at each SR to determine a Champion of the event.
5. Each of the 16 alliances advancing to the Grand Championships will play 15 matches (One against every other competing alliance) to determine seeding for the Final Tournament. The winners of the two SR will be awarded the top 2 seeds and number 1 will be determined by the 15 matches.
6. Conduct the Tournament as normally run to determine a true Champion.

I believe this could work, but I think it would work best in an EAST/WEST system where the Grand Championships would be held somewhere in the Midwest.
