Yes, I do think that for sure. Every single other Battlebots event has been open since the beginning.
This one was simply unique because they had so little time from announcing, and couldn't firm up details with the network deal. Additionally, they wanted to work with people they knew would have functional robots to make the filming a success for the pilot episodes, and not risk first timers showing up with non-functional, or non-exciting robots.
