Chief Delphi went to three regionals?

[meaubry]

You are correct in your posting - FIRST allowed a number of teams to go after the regional events registration started dropping due to teams cancelling because of travel or funding. There were teams that were registered for 3 regionals and later added the nationals making their total 4 events. We were even approached by a couple of sponsors of other venues asking if we would be interesting in attending their regional. We originally sent in money for 3 regionals, as we have done 3 in the past years - and waited patiently until it was cleared that we could attend the 3rd one - only after assuring that everyone that wanted to go to the regionals had been accomodated. Both Toronto and Western Michigan had over 10 available slots.
If you have a problem with FIRST and the inconsistancy in the rules, take it up with them. Seems rather ludicrous that you have chosen the handle you have - seems to me to be the furthest from the truth.
Don't embarrass your team now by posting who you really are.
I'm proud of our team, the way that we patiently waited to get approval to go - we have nothing to be ashamed of. Please back off and don't try to embarrass us any further.
By the way, BDuggan - thank you so very much for the congrats, you guys are always a top notch team - congrats on your season and good luck in Florida.
