My Thoughts

I had to say First Come-First Served on this one...I admit, it's probably not the best way to do it either, but at least it gives everybody the same shot at getting there (well, except for maybe those teams that register on the last possible day) I don't like the idea of taking the Nationals experience away from anybody, but like others have said, they're going to have to limit it somehow to keep it from getting too out of control. And as somebody mentioned in the other thread on this, any sort of qualification scheme runs into all sorts of planning problems(I know at least one team that I've worked with required school board approval for any out of state trips, which isn't always the easiest thing to get on short notice,) not to mention the flights to the competition, hotels, etc. etc...
