A regional participation gets you 1 point. Being one of the Top 8 teams is 2 points. Regional finalist is 3 points. Regional Winner is 5 points.
After all points are distributed, teams could be sorted the same way they are now, starting with the top ranked team and going down the list, assigned each team the next division. (In case of a tie in points, teams can be sorted by team number, or randomly.) This system would assure every division is fun to watch and compete in.

I love the idea Tom, but i doubt FIRST would do something as slightly complex as that is. They seem to like to take the simple ways. I also think alot of teams/individuals wouldn't agree with the ranking idea because sometimes teams get lucky or go to an easier regional or more regionals, and all sorts of things like that.

Anything that I post is an opinion from my own mind. Some may agree with it, others may not. However do not negatively associate anyone else, including any team I work with, with my opinion.
