I think that the national should be open to teams that had a high seed in their regionals. It would remove the unfairness of the even/odd system and allow teams that deserve to go to Florida to enter the national. Winning a regional involves quite a bit of luck in addition to skill. The point system is also weak because the bigger teams with the 'wealthier' sponsors can devote more time to things like technical awards. Going by seeding at regionals is probably the most accurate way to send deserving teams to Florida. Say the top 15 teams from each regional qualify. Exceptions could be made for rookies too so they could have a chance to get in. Hopefully some kind of solution will be found by FIRST that allows as many teams in as possible.
