I guess my point is, let's see how it plays out before we condemn it to failure.

Excellent points Chris. I'd be happy to find out the pilot turns out to be awesome and have to eat my words.
I just hope the effort to give teams 2 regionals instead of one doesn't result in two watered down events instead of one good one. Without a practice day, most teams will probably get half a regional's worth of competition out of their first event.
You're right though. It is too early to condemn it to failure.

If this became widespread, certain regions would comprise more than one state, I'm sure
