Class of 1995 wins

100% of registered 2015 teams have registered. So the rookies win as well, too, right?

Well, except for the other hundred or two...

Just broke 1900 teams 100% registered.

North Carolina just added in 10 teams from the waitlist.
Kevin noted awhile back that NC had added 8 more reserved slots the day before registration opened. Well, they have been assigned.

An hour later,
MN 10K Lakes added 23
MN North Star added 15


2000 teams just after noon today.

Followed by a smattering of minor waitlist changes at:
Los Angeles
Kansas City
Arizona East
Long Island
San Diego

plus
Dallas

So, being so early these must be local teams being brought into the fold.
It seems that the waitlist doesn't appear to include any Michigan non-home teams after all, as they are being drawn into Regional events.

NC should still have at least 13 reserved slots remaining to use up on any other wait-listed teams from the 1st event registration (15+8-10=13). Do not think there will be many reserved slots left in NC for the upcoming 2nd event registration.

EDIT: By the end of the day NC added in a total of 12 teams from the wait-list. NC should still have at least 11 reserved slots remaining (15+8-12=11).

Today brought us close (7 short) to 2100, but not quite yet.
(7:00 ET in the morning we were right at 2100)

There seems to have been a number of teams dropping one event and moving to another.

Waterloo added 10 available slots and one team dropped or switched, so 11 slots there are now open.

Reaching initial capacity are:
St. Louis
Va

[Mark McLeod]

2177 team registered
215 --- MI
103 --- MAR
134 --- PNW
157 --- NE
50 ---- IN
1518 -- Regionals

The little dip in the chart there, where the lines for 2015 and 2014 come close then separate, is due to the extra 5 reserved slots held back this year.

(18) Regionals on waitlists
3 of those have significantly drawn down their waitlists

(3) Districts are at waitlist status with 2nd district registration coming up on Thursday

Just to comment on this... 10,000 is at full capacity, based on previous year's numbers and the limitations of the venue for pit size. The wait list there is just people hoping someone drops out at this point!

That looks like it happened for one team already.
The 10K event total dropped to 62 on Oct 7 and came right back up to 63 the next day, so somebody got in.

Second regional opens on the 23rd. Today's opening is just for district regions.
