Re: It's Championship, Not Nationals

I like Nationals better for a couple reasons

Saying that we're going to the Championship event in Atlanta implies that we won and earned our way, however in most cases, we haven't.

Also, when I refer to the teams who won the whole event, Championship Champions sounds rediculous. National Champions sounds better.

I don't really want to seem like I'm ignoring the teams from out of the country (it's kind of hard to ignore the Canadian teams ), but it just is easier to say, easier to listen to, and sounds better.

Maybe we should call it worlds? There are many more Vex teams and Lego teams from other countries that show up to Atlanta. Worlds would make the most sense.

Or I just refer to it as "Atlanta".
