If there was a way to up that # isntead of kill it down, i think it would make things like Regional Champs mean more. but like i said i guess the expansion is a good thing.

*edit* also with the upping of the prices to attend competitions, some teams might only be able to attend one, instead of two. so that might also kill attendance.
I have to agree with J to the Vizzle, but for a different reason.

I'm willing to bet that teams around regional sites wouldn't be in FIRST if it weren't for that regional springing up. I don't know if that's the story of 1293--maybe I'll ask about that sometime. But if we don't get regionals out there to show off what we've got to people, it'll be like a tree falling in the woods with nobody around to hear it. And unlike that classic question, this time it won't make a sound!
