2007 Regionals -- Team Participation By Week

This year's regional FRC season is looking light on Week 4, but otherwise fairly well balanced. As of this morning, the week-by-week registration totals indicate:

231 teams registered for 5 regionals in Week 1, with 11 spaces still open.

253 teams registered for 8 regionals in Week 2, with 70 spaces still open; this does not include the pilot event in Brazil.

328 teams registered for 9 regionals in Week 3, with 32 spaces still open.

111 teams registered for 4 regionals in Week 4, with 26 spaces still open.

304 teams registered for 9 regionals in Week 5, with 65 spaces still open; this does not include the Israel regional (no sign-ups yet?)

Is something else going on in Week 4 that prevented FIRST from spreading the load out a little more? Or is this just the luck of the draw based on venue availability?

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
