Um, unless I'm mistaken, those 95 spots still open (now 93) includes all the spots to be held for teams that qualify this year, so they're not really open. It's November 5th and no Tier 2 teams show registered yet. Did any of the 70 remaining Tier 3-6 teams try to register and get wait listed because the championship was full?

You're a day ahead of yourself, it's only the 4th

Also registration opens at noon, so teams would have had only 52 minutes to register when you posted your message. If FIRST was having DB problems, it certainly wouldn't have been unlikely for teams to not be showing up.
Also, I do not beleive that 90 something spaces are held for teams qualifying this year. That would give a nationals of only 188 teams. Rather, I expect that those spots are in addition to the ones reserved for winners, which would give a nationas around 300 teams, which is much more in line with previous years.
