I agree Jeremy

it's obvious just from the reactions, that some aspects of the system are a little confusing and could use clarification - which I'm hopeful will be coming.

Regarding your tier placement question - would this wording help understand it more:

A team is placed in a tier based on "the last year they attended the Championship OR (if they have NEVER attended the Championship) how many years they have participated in FIRST without attending the Championship."?

Your concern is valid, but don't worry - it's not the case. Teams who have not gone in 3 years will be two tiers above those who have not gone in 1 year - regardless of if they have ever gone or not.

Don't know if that wording (which is my interpretation, NOT an official wording from FIRST) helps clarify or not.
