Re: Where/when is qualification match count data available?

In districts each team is guaranteed to play 12 qualification matches because we have fewer teams per event.
Six to eight is rather low. Some regionals do go as low as eight, but quite a few are between 9 and 11, I have seen a regional go up to 13. You are correct about districts running 12.

If I was going to make a guess, I would take the time allotted to qualification matches, divide it by the cycle time (past two years it has been around 7 minutes, it might be down to 6 this year) to get the number of possible matches. I would take the number of possible matches and multiply by 6 (6 teams per match) then divide by number of teams at the event. I would then round down to account for the slower cycles at the beginning of the event when the staff is learning the ropes and teams are working out the kinks and any other situations that might slow down the event. Then I would give some disclaimer about how it is only a guess.
