Most of any commentary I'd have has already been covered. The main issue I've always had about qualifying for nationals has been the fact that it is nearly impossible for a team to qualify for nationals the next year unless you attend two regionals. This is because the point system requires you to have five points which means you have to win the regional and a technical award if you only attend one event. This can be a very challenging thing to do. Given that it's not really an option for many teams to attend two regionals (particularly if they are attending nationals this year), I think that the qualification process should be made to allow more teams to attend based on previous years preformance while limiting the number of teams that attend on the even/odd side of things.
