  3. Theres no way of getting a new number without not competing for a season, is there?(not that I want to go through all the paperwork)
I'm just speculating that questions 2 and 3 are Noes, but some clarification may help.
1) depends on the team. When 350 came back in 2004, we asked to keep our old number, which FIRST allowed, and granted 2nd year status (as far as KOP type). However I believe under certain circumstances FIRST will also let a "back from the dead" team get a rookie number/ status.

dont know about 2 or 3
