Re: Registration 2017

There, 3130 teams are listed for events now.

Here's the plot.
Triangles mark where registration equals the previous year's registration total final team numbers.
So, this year what I'm going to call "parity" took ~6 days longer than last year.
It's similar to when parity was reached in 2014.

The registration period is very compressed this year, so there has been some affect on the curve for this year.
All the curves are also affected by lack of open event slots and how quickly event waitlists are cleared, and that varies based on changing circumstances year to year.
  • 2778 continuing veteran teams (88.8%)
  • 352 missing vets (11.2%)
  • 324 rookie teams
  • 9 new vet teams
  • 19 resurrected vets
