I am with you on this one. WE also ran into the problems of teams being announced, but nobody was in the operator boxes, because we were still working out a strategy. Also, with all the noise produced by the crowds, it becomes EXTREMELY hard to work out a strategy, and listen to everyone's comments.
I am also for letting more teams get into the elim rounds at nationals. only 10 out of 84 is way too small. I mean think about it, at regional events, there are less than 84 teams, yet twice as many teams get into the elimination rounds, this seems a little misthought by FIRST.
AS far as the tie-breaker goes, I don't agree with time left. I think average score is better, however, I do think that seeding in the qual. matches should not be taken into account.
