With Bill Miller unveiling the tentative regional schedule, it got me thinking about which events 148 will attend this season. That got me thinking about what exactly makes us choose the regionals we do and I began to analyze our criteria for regional selection... which of course made me wonder, what do other teams do?
How does your team select which regionals you attend? Do you have a specific set of criteria?
Some of 148's criteria:- Dallas is our "home regional".
- We like to stay in Texas.
- We want to travel somewhere interesting.
- We don't want to travel -- we are cheap.
- We want to play with the big dogs.
- We don't like back-to-back regionals.
- We don't like week 1 regionals.
- We like week 1 regionals.
- We don't like regionals in "party locales."
I thought this was an interesting thing to think about, so I posted more info (including some justifications for our criteria) here:
