Since 188 teams are pre-registered for Nationals, that only leaves 100 slots for the Regionals.
Hmmm. That means the slots for 5 award winners from each Regional and only 15 slots remaining for regional winners. It looks like FIRST is expecting a lot of overlap between award winners, regional winners, and pre-reg teams. Could be risky?
I expect the field to change this year, too. In the forum minutes, it seems strange that FIRST mentioned how few of the teams actually built the entire field. I think only 3 teams in MI. Sounds like they will change the field. And a 2v2v2 game would increase their throughput and make the game more dynamic.
