Nut uh...
If I recall correctly, there were 3 or 4 weekends of Regionals. During the last weekend, FIRST made the announcement that each alliance could pick another round of alliance selection, therefore having 3 teams in each alliance.
We had a 2 team alliance in Chicago at the Midwest Regional.
Our alliance at Great Lakes was 292, 45, 235.
Our alliance at Championships was 45, 111, 84.
People talk about "changing the rules" being a bad thing. This was not. 1999 was brutal, and FIRST decided to give each alliance a backup robot.
