Re: Question of the Week!!! (8/4/04)
There was a similar question like this before-to do with the expansion of Nationals. Ill go with the same idea as my previous post, that there will be over 3000 teams, especially with the way it is picking up at about 200 teams per year.
Regionals will contain around 60 teams and there will be around 55-60. Each alliance to win a regional, win chairmans, win engineering inspiration and other Major award winners, will then go onto a Super Regional. Also, if a team wins a 2nd regional, the 2nd place finisher-who was the top seed of the alliance will then go on. The SR is broken down into 8 regions; Northeast, SouthEast, Midwest, SouthCentral, Rockies Area, NorthWest, SouthWest, and then a Foreign/Canadian SR. The winners/2nd place of that will then go onto a very small national championship of 48-64 teams depending on the game.
Then National awards will be given out at some type of event like said above, or during Nationals themselves. The top 5 teams for each major award would then be invited to nationals, however, in order to play-they need to be at least above average during that years competition-just so the level of play would be high.
