Yes, it is hard to travel on such short notice, and even harder to raise funds that quickly. However, there are LESS teams traveling on short notice then before. This year, only 6 teams will qualify from each regional. Last year, there were 8 from each regional.

To be fair, last year many of the teams who qualified during regionals were already going through the even/odd system or points from the year before. My argument was that they aren't giving as much time as possible. Right now you have to finalize payment by the Monday after. But with the new scheduling even after the last regionals theres over a week before Nationals. I understand they want to make it fair so everyone has the same amount of time, but I don't see why they can't extend it to the Friday after the regional.
