Re: CD Media Tagging - Championships or Nationals

Also, to go into semantics, and throw a curve ball into the mix, wouldn't the Israeli regional (at least last year when it was just open to Israeli teams) be considered a Nationals event, and yet also technically a regional event?
Just to be precise, the Israeli regional was open for only Israeli teams this year too, and I assume it will stay that way for a few years (how many teams would really come to Israel for a regional when you have 32 in the US?)

About nationals or championship...as an Israeli I don't really care. We usually just call it Atlanta. But I guess if we were going to be correct, then it is better to use "Championship event".
