I believe that that expains it right there. This competition was not created with the goal of making robots that defeat their opponents... it was created to get teenagers interested in Science and Technology. Which it has done quite well, considering that there are 999 teams this year. That sheer number has made them limit the attendees at the National Competition in Orlando.

Now I am NOT saying that I agree with all of the rules about who goes to nationals... I believe that any team who wants to, and can raise the funds, should be abile to go.

PS- I know it is a kind of goofy idea, but couldn't they set-up a second 'National' at Disney in California? That would allow more teams to compete - and lower travel costs for any west-coast teams-.
