Re: toughest regional in 2011?

It's definitely possible: 2609 seeded first in Waterloo 2009 over 2056 and went on to become regional champs. Last year, 1310 and 1305 teamed up in Waterloo and only lost to an alliance with 2 Einstein robots by 3 points in the finals. A week later 1305 did the same thing in the GTR semifinals (except by 4 points), with the score actually being even until the endgame.
(1305 also became semi-finalists on Galileo last year, upsetting 1717's alliance in the quarters)

The Canadian regionals are often overlooked but are tremendously competitive all the same (2009 GTR Finals, anyone?). I'm glad that they're getting a lot of publicity now.

That being said, I'm particularly looking forward to Midwest and Silicon Valley south of the border.
