We simply do not want the IRI to grow to that level.

At the size we are (66 - 72 teams), teams get 8 good matches, almost 1/2 of the field will be in the eliminations, the competition is tough, the organization of the event is manageable for people who do this as volunteers, the parent crews can cook and feed all of the teams, and we keep the "fun" feel for everybody.

There is a challenge to not letting this get too big and so cumbersome that it is no longer fun for everyone involved. We think the current team level (72) is just about right.
