Re: New FIRST competition structure in Michigan

[quote=Jack Jones;760790]What you may not realize is that there is no discount. The registration for Michigan teams is being subsidized by FIRST in Michigan, with the help of their participating sponsors, venues, and volunteers.QUOTE]

Thank you for answering my question, I somewhat expected that answer. With so many teams in one area, people are bound to have an impact on the area to make this happen for them. I congratulate FIRST Michigan on this accomplishment. However I still do not believe that it is right for a team to have a 1 in 18 chance to advance to the World Champinoships at 1 event, when all other teams only have a 1 in roughly 5 chance to advance at each event they go to.
