With the new post by FIRST those of us who were 1st year teams last year are officially screwed.

We have been put in the same category as the teams that went to Nationals last year...

"Tier 1 Last attended Championship in 2003, or
never attended Championship and Rookie Year is 2003"

Therefore the statement that

"These slots will be based on the number of years since a team last attended the Championship. " is false.

Teams attending last year (hence 0 years since last attending) and Rookie teams from 2003 who DID NOT go to Nationals.. (1 years since last attending) are treated exactly the same...

This goes for those of us who were even numbered last year and couldn't have gone if we wanted to...


sarcasm (ON)
Was last year's crop of rookies that bad???
sarcasm (OFF)
