I agree that there should be some sort of vetting or seeding process, but prior seasons' results should not play into it, until we start playing the same challenge year after year. How do you compare Aerial Assist to Recycle Rush?

IF there is a two "CMP" split, my opinion is there should be a venue for the best-of-the-best of that season to compete against each other. That is not necessarily the Regional/District winners. How many third picks are to have a cold dish for cheesecake? (2nd picks for that matter) most alliance captains are more worthy than the first picks of Regional Winners, but do not qualify.

In my mind the most practical system would be to have Super Regionals with a CMP feel. (HOF, Scholarship Row, How To Conferences ...)Then the top teams qualify for Worlds. HOF RCA RAS have equal opportunity at the Super Regional level.

This idea does not solve any travel issues. For those that qualify it would add another level of cost, especially for teams not in the contiguous USA.
