Go to Post They could release an update saying they were going to give every team free puppies and kittens, and many teams would vehemently complain this change was too late to budget dry kibbles into their budget. - artdutra04 [more]

Some data (shown below) for the past 12 years shows that our grow rate is starting to taper off. The numbers represent the number of teams that competed, not the number of teams that registered. Some teams sign up but drop out due to lack of funding or whatever.

Check out the % growth and how it has slowed down in the past two years. My prediction is that the growth will continue to slow down. There are 888 teams registered at the time I am writing this. It may even go above 910. But I predict we will have 910 or less teams actually compete in at least one event this year.

Code:
Year     Total         % Gain%
1992      28
1993      25         -10.7%
1994      44          76.0%
1995      59          34.1%
1996      93          57.6%
1997     155          66.7%
1998     199          28.4%
1999     269          35.2%
2000     373          38.7%
2001     517          38.6%
2002     670          29.6%
2003     787          17.5%
2004     910          15.6%
2005    1030          13.2%
