Re: Registration 2017
I would like to see a system where each team submitted a first and a second choice or just a first choice. Try to give as many teams as possible their first choices, using a lottery or auction model, whatever seems appropriate. This would allow regional directors to use some of the slots that are held back to place teams earlier. (Ex: If there are 10 slots held for late registering rookies and nearby teams, and four nearby teams were unlucky and didn't get one of the open slots, they could get one of the reserved slots.) Give teams their second choice if possible and they selected a second choice. This would allow teams to submit a ballot by the given date, and the system could spit out the results. A little work by the people at HQ and the regional directors and they publish a list of who got their slots where.
Then a few days later let all of the teams that have not yet registered for a competition resubmit a request for one of the still available slots.
