Everyone got 7 matches in '07 your team just got a surrogate match. We have had 7 matches in divisions for as long as I can remember. I have never understood why FIRST would run surrogate matches when they have a waitlist of teams. They also make divisions uneven (87, 87, 86, and 88 last year) which is even more confusing.
Just invite a number of teams divisible by 6 (or 3 if you plan on running an even number of matches) per division. I would love to see 90 team 9 matches/team, however I think it is just as likely that we see 87 at 8 matches/team or many crazy combinations that result in surrogate matches
