Only sometimes?

Check past threads from earlier seasons. People anticipating the release of the event list is very "normal" behavior, and many teams would prefer the list to be released sooner rather than later because, yes, they like to be proactive, and they do have a lot of factors to weigh before deciding which events they will attend and in what order they will sign up for them. Some teams might like to narrow their pick list to a few possibilities and let students meet to vote on them. Other teams might want to gather a large group of adult team leaders together to deliberate on the matter. It isn't trivial to schedule these types of meetings, especially for larger teams, so the more time FIRST gives us between the release of the event schedule and the initial registration day, the better.
