312/4 = 78 teams per division, with 4 divisions.

Sounds good to me.
I like that system, it's simple, concise, and works exceptionally well. However wouldn't FIRST have to expand the CE to accommodate those teams plus any more? Like Chairmans winners? I think it has potential if you were to drag it out and really develop it.

I'm a FIRST relic of sorts, I remember when we used PBASIC and we got CH Flightsticks in the KoP. In my day we didn't have motorized carts, we pushed our robots uphill, both ways! (Houston 2003!)
