Qualifying for nationals
I can't believe the new qualification process for nationals this year. How is a team supposed to ask for money from a sponsor for national or raise the LARGE AMOUNT and not know whether they are going to go? My team is already having problems raising enough money for all other team things. If we are not guaranteed to go then why will anybody devote time and buy non refundable airplane tickets ahead of time? We will be attending the Socal regional and personally i see no way of planning a whole trip and raising close to 20,000 in 2 weeks. I think that it is unfair for teams that aren't on the A list or liked by these premiere robotics teams. If i am at all wrong in my analysis of the process please correct me.
