I'm thinking that either choice #1 or #2 would be much better than the way it was at the regionals. Multiple times at the Lone Star Regional, I thought about how at the end of the first match the losing alliance would try to force their way on to the top of the ramp, but in doing so (trying to complete an objective of the game) gave the opposing alliance more points than themselves. Basically you were punishing yourself by trying to score points for your alliance. That doesn't make very much sense. I also did not like that an alliance could only lose one match and lose the whole thing.
If FIRST doesn't want to change the rules of the game too much then they could just change it to option #2. That shouldn't change the outcome of the competition but it would make it a whole lot more exciting and sensible from a spectator standpoint.
