Re: Proposal for Wildcard Reform

I've ran the number for this year's regionals (excluding Ontario) using both the extra 2017 wildcard and District Points for awarding all of them. Here is what I got: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing

Some stats:
Total wildcards awarded: 116
Maximum wildcards awarded at one event: 5
Average wildcards awarded: 2.42

Using bdaroz's calculation of 88 wildcards awarded using current 2017 rules, this means that my proposal would save 28 burned wildcards.
