I would like to see FIRST drop the even/odd rule, while at the same time relax the point system to qualify. Instead of just tech awards, let it be ANY award. So any team that:
a) Gets an award
or
b) is a regional finalist
...will get to go. If there are 27 regionals this year, with 14 awards at each, I estimate between 270 and 540 teams will qualify for Nationals. Seems good to me =)
