sidewinder is an unknown quantity at this point

I have attemded nationals for the last two years and have had priblems with it. With any alliance game you can only be as good as your ally or opponent for that matter. In 2001 we walked in ranked #1 in curie division, but couldn;t get a break with our alliance partners, and in 2002 we didn;t get much better luck on either side of the field and it was hard to win or more importantly Win Big.
I think a regional should be a regional, and nats should be on a higher level, not just huge regional. I agree that for 2003 the current way should stand, but past that it should only be by the 5 point system that teams should be allowed to go to nats.
In a few years no venue will be able to hold an unrestricted nats (including the even odd thing). The only way to preserve it is to restrict access by quality (of that years) robot or team alone.
I know i will get criticised for a possible "elitist" view, but i only want to see an event that all teams try hard to get to, and will feel even more pride in winning or even qualifying.
