Re: Registration 2013

Just curious.... Who has the honor of owning the highest team number and what is that number?
Thanks for all the effort that you put into this each year.

Re: Registration 2013

How many Ontario teams are there compared to last year. How many have not registered that competed last year?

Re: Registration 2013

The highest team number for this season probably hasn't shown up quite yet.

After registration closes there will continue to be a gradual rise in the number of teams for the next 10-12 days, before they begin to fall off as loosely organized teams fall apart, fundraising hopes are dashed, unions go on strike. The final count will probably end up around what it is now.
Expect the peak in registration numbers to be reached around December 17 or so, before it begins to drop back to around today's number.

Last year the registration process was extremely long and drawn out. Believe it or not, last year the final team wasn't dropped from the FIRST roster until the first week in April (April fool's I suppose).

Re: Registration 2013

I was hoping 3 years ago. We still have not.
Another question would be when we are getting more districts as 10 is almost too few for 206 teams.
Hopefully, both of those get raised next year.

Kudos to Minnesota, they have seen some explosive growth in the past few seasons and have not lost a single team this year (yet). Growth + sustainability = recipe for success! Good job!

May I point out that last year Michigan had 190 of 2339 teams or 8.12% of all teams, Michigan then had 36 of 400 at CMP or 9% of of teams at CMP thus it is proportional

I asked the same question; the RD handles the waitlist, so whenever he/she is able to clear it is when it is done.

But how many of those were from open registration at the start of the season? They only award 18 slots at Michigan CMP. With no open registration to speak of this year, that number is likely to decrease, perhaps significantly. They only other way for Michigan teams to qualify is via winning an outside regional (along with CCA and Einstein, etc).

For comparison, MAR had 26 out of 99 teams at CMP last year, 12 qualified at MAR CMP, 9 teams registered in the fall, 4 spots were opened up by teams double qualifying at MAR CMP (outside regional winner/preregistration/CCA), and 1 CCA winner.

This year we will have our 12 slots at MAR CMP, 4 teams registered from last year (3 CCA and 1 Einstein 12), and then possibly a few more if any MAR teams qualify via outside regionals (looks like 10 out of 109 teams plan to attend another regional this year). A few of those 12 slots could be lost if 25,103,341, or 365 attend and win MAR CMP or MAR EI/CA.

Regardless, I don't think there's any denying that Michigan produces some of the strongest teams in FIRST, and they'll likely be under-represented this year.
