Re: 2014 MAR Season

Registration is going to be trickier to track from here on out - 5 out of the 6 district events have now hit their initial capacity limits. We currently have 103 registered teams (98/109 returning from '13, 5 rookies). 9 teams have yet to register for their 2nd district, and 11 teams are currently "missing" from the '13 season.

HH 35/35
MO 35/35
SCH 31/31
CLI 23/35
LEN 36/35
BR 37/37

Depending on additional rookies (we had 12 total in '13), we should see district event sizes closer to '12 numbers (~40/event). I wouldn't expect many 3rd district slots to be available. My guess would be that 5 slots are being held back from each event, giving SCH and 36 team cap, BR a 42 team cap, and the rest 40.

Re: 2014 MAR Season

Registration has been sitting flat for the last week or so. Looks like 6 rookies are sitting in the system waiting to be assigned numbers/register, so we might have a few more yet. We're at 108 teams currently, which is down from the 109 we had play last year. 2 teams are only listed for 1 district event, likely by choice as the waitlist cleared recently.

HH 38
MO 38
SCH 32
CLI 27
LEN 40
BR 39

Clifton looks like the only possibility for 3rd event registration, hopefully that fills to a more reasonable number to keep some competitive balance. Might be tough fitting new rookies into their preferred event locations without some teams shifting into SCH/CLI events.

We're missing 8 teams who played in 2013:

1367 Newark, NJ USA
1617 Newark, NJ USA
1881 Paterson, NJ USA
2229 Plymouth Meeting, PA USA
3123 Pottstown, PA USA
4128 Holmdel, NJ USA
4373 Jenkintown, PA USA
4573 South River, NJ USA

Expect the cutoff for MAR CMP to be higher this year (somewhere in the mid to high 50's), the new points system should be about a 10% bump (more points for awards, rookie bonus, and elimination points).

To expand on 1790-their team name is literally, "Team 1881". And how exactly are they being identified as a returning team, as opposed to "new" team? Their FIRST info page has no history or information.

Also hopefully some teams will get a 3rd district at Clifton, or maybe some more rookies (I've heard of one possible rookie that's within ~1 hour of Clifton)

For what it's worth, I think a bit park of the lack of outside travel is due to the late registration opening this year. I wouldn't be surprised of a handful of regular travelers are either on wait lists, like us, or decided to for go traveling this year due to the limited selection. (It also doesn't help that there are fewer travel events with NE going to districts and fewer spots at both DC and Chesapeake.

I looked into this since it seemed interesting, and there wasn't anything that said conclusively that 1790 was 'returning veteran' although their rookie year of 2006 would match up with them being an offshoot/continuation of 1881. I dug into their high school and found that their program moved from one school to another in 2012(ish) so it's very likely that the new number may be a by product of this since similar things have happened before elsewhere.

Also, I didn't see anything that conclusively identified 1790 as being a returning veteran either, but I'd imagine that Scott saw the data and ID-ed them in the same way that 265 is (obviously) the JV team of 265.

Re: 2014 MAR Season

Worth noting that Teams 56 and 225 are both registered for the Greater DC Regional.

Re: 2014 MAR Season

Some more MAR teams have gotten off the wait list at regionals recently it looks like:

-Team 204 : SBPLI Long Island (5)
-Team 303 : Buckeye (4)
-Team 1218 : Greater Pittsburgh (5)

This brings the total number of MAR teams attending regionals up to 10
(11, 56, 204, 225, 303, 341, 555, 1218, 2016, 2234)
