Don't know how many district teams are even going to be able to register for the event. Sure, the surrounding areas all moved to districts, but that event still filled up in less than 5 minutes after 2nd event registration last year and the year before.

Depending on the team list going, I wouldn't be opposed to getting in a regional play before everyone else in our district...

Re: 2016 regional dates?

I actually really like this week 0.5 event. I know I'll be watching for sure. Can someone start planning for a high quality webcast now.

Hopefully we do see some district teams at the event. That will increase the competition level for everyone watching.

This is actually a fantastic opportunity for most teams in the Chesapeake, NC, and GA districts. An opportunity to qualify for worlds before your events even begin. Even if you don't qualify, Palmetto's extra practice. I wouldn't expect many team from 8+ hours away, but representation from surrounding states will still be pretty good.

I've never watched the Palmetto webcast (obviously, I'm at Palmetto), but from the tweets I've gotten it's usually pretty good quality.

That said, if someone wanted to set the bar for The RoboShow I'm sure I could get you connected with the right people.

At least there are a lot of regionals in the Southeast to choose from.

Yeah, district teams that qualify at a regional take a CMP slot from regional teams AND count against the district's CMP allocation.
Qualifying for CMP as an district team at a regional should either not count for a district's slots or generate a wildcard to not take a spot from regional teams.

Re: 2016 regional dates?

So far I have a solid idea of what week one, two, five,six, seven and obviously eight look like for me. I'm curious to see what three and four look like.

If Orlando stayed week three and TVR stayed week four like last year it would make me quite happy. If there's no flight to Orlando I may give the week zero Palmetto regional a serious look.
