I'd love to see that make a return, at least on the Championship level.
You beat me to it; I was about to mention the same thing. They could do 4 teams with the same rule that all must play at least 1 match per round, but you can swap in and out as you choose. It would definitely make things more interesting...not to mention, the extra 8 robots that would get a chance to extend their Saturday a little bit.
