A thought -- are FIRST and NI prepared to troubleshoot a brand new control system at these additional events? It seems a weird time to implement two radical shifts in how the program operates in a single season.

Another thought -- knowing that practically nothing of a team's registration fee goes toward supporting a regional event, I'm having trouble reconciling how teams in Michigan can justifiably play more for their single registration fee. The FAQ seems to deftly ignore how much the registration fee for Michigan teams will be; I'm curious to learn if it'll be higher or lower than elsewhere and how the time spent playing matches for that fee compares with teams from other states paying a similar amount.
