Has this ever happened before and I just don't know about it?
Precedent exists for an event running with very few teams. The 2008 Brazil Regional ran with only 13 teams competing, where the elimination bracket consisted of just 4 alliances. Ultimately, GA FIRST might incentivize teams to sign up for a 3rd district event and the team numbers for both the week 3 events might go up. We just have to wait and see.
