: Example: We could not attend the Chicago regional. The teams that could attend get their robots for 72 hours after the regional ends to work and make changes. Why not give everyone their robots for 72 hours? In this way, the teams that could not attend miss out on the scouting, driving experience, fun, etc., but they still get equivalent time to improve their machine.

: Any thoughts on this option?

If I remember correctly, back in '96 teams which went to Disney but did not attend
a regional were allowed to ship the robot a few days later than teams which also
attended a regional. This was intended to compensate for the extra time the teams
who participated in the reginal would get at the end of that competition.
