Re: Is competing at multiple regionals REALLY fair ?
I see your point but this argument doesn't make any sense...

If teams were limited to "local" regionals then the powerhouse teams would just beat the little guys over and over and over again indefinitely... (think 254 at SVR)

However, if you allow teams to move around, the stronger teams will invariably go where the competition is fierce - allowing the weaker teams a chance to show their stuff (and giving the big teams a bigger challenge).

Make sense?
