What about the winning alliance at each district event, wild card slots and the list goes on?
Is there a more simple explanation somewhere as what will qualify a team for worlds?
Just as I had the regional model figured out something new. Time to learn some more.

Individual district events do not qualify teams for Champs. Their purpose is to award district points to teams. The top teams in the district based on the total points earned at their first two events in the district, and district event Chairman's winners, will advance to the District Championship. Here, points are awarded using the same criteria as district events, but with a multiplier of 3. This places a great emphasis on the District Championship.
Your district will receive an allocation of CMP slots proportional to the percentage of FRC teams that are in your district, though pre-qualified (Hall of Fame, Legacy, previous year CMP Winners/EI) teams do not count toward or against this allocation. Teams earn these spots by: - Winning District Championship (3 or 4)
- District Championship Chairman's Award (1-3)
- District Championship Engineering Inspiration Award (1-3)
- District Championship Rookie All Star (1)
- Qualifying at a regional (which does count against the district allocation)
This will not take up all the spots. The remaining spots are given to the top ranked teams by district points. There are no wildcards per-se, but any team who qualifies through multiple Regional/DCMP qualifying awards will convert the extra to another points slot. Any team who qualifies for Champs within the district and declines will create a new points slot.
For additional info, see Section 7.4 of the Admin Manual.
