So, If a HoF team or previous year CMP winner wins at their first event, no wild card is generated. If a team wins and also earns Chairman's/EI at the same regional, a wildcard is generated for the finalist alliance. If any team wins in a regional AFTER they've earned a qualification spot in a previous regional in the same year (win, RCA, EI, RAS) it generates a wild card.
Wild cards are passed down the finalist alliance in pick order until the next new team qualifies for the Championship. Wild cards are "lost" if everyone on the finalist alliance is also qualified.

Incorrect. Last year HOF, original sustaining team and championship award winners generated wild cards right away.
