The main problem with having so many teams is people posting your response to a post before you get a chance to do it yourself.

Well said Greg.

That said, I would enjoy having nationals be in different cities each year - like the Olympics, Final Four, or Super Bowl. It would be a neat way to be able to see a new city each year.

Another idea is to not have it in a city. Have everyone bring a tent and some sunscreen and we'll have it in the deserts of the American Southwest. Like Burning Man, but with robots, and less debauchery.
