: I personally don't see how this affects teams who participated in the
: other reginals in any way. I've seen a number of people claim that
: changing the format is unfair to those who competed in other regionals.
: Perhaps someone could elaborate on why this is so?

: I don't see the change as a 'consistency problem', but rather a reaction
: to problems which were noted in some of the other regional contests.
: I applaud FIRST for being willing to change the contest in order to
: fix (or attempt to fix, depending on your point of view) the problems.

I agree with you Jerry, It doesn't affect the results of the other regionals, because the regionals don't have binding power upon anything except for themselves. I won't start crying foul until the results of the regionals decide who goto the nationals.
