I remember way back when we sucked (last year), ok we were a first year team, but we were 13th or so at UTC and it was my job to get us picked. Despite an hour of sucking-up nobody noticed us and nobody picked us and it was crushing to the whole team to work so hard and to get passed over.

This year we ended up 1st seeds at UTC and seeds in Newton and it was exhillerating to see teams work so hard to get us to pick them. I felt really bad for some good teams with incredibly nice people (155 at UTC and 19 at nat's come to mind) who didn't get picked.

If the scheduling issue can be worked out (and that's a BIG issue) than I would love to see more teams in the elimination rounds because it will force the high-seeds to notice more teams and it will make more teams feel wanted.
