The best registration system was the one that had all of the events listed on one set of pages (iirc). 2 categories in boxes. Event capacity, no. of slots left. The box was color coded. It turned a certain color once no. of slots left became low or another color when event was full.
In a snapshot, you could see all the information you needed without having to navigate endlessly just to find out 1 piece of information.
You could click on links to see who was registered for the event and not have to use the search bar everytime you needed to find something.

I agree with Glenn and weberr, having been around for a long time, I found the flaws with the old website something I could work around. The layout for the new one is not user friendly for FIRST teams. I tried for 30 minutes the other day to find the "What is FIRST" video ... I could only find it in Spanish. I ended up going to You Tube to find it. It is a great video and it should be EASY to find on the website.
We will continue to send in our comments regarding website use. I feel that perhaps the website was designed more for people learning about FIRST than the FIRST community itself.
