Jeff,
There is an error in your logic:
: So now situation 2. : If take an average regional number of matche say 85,
: (Does anyone have all the regional Q-match numbers so we can make this right)
: Take the 85 and double it you get 170 then take the number of teams divided
: by 8 (220/8=27.5)
You need to divide by 4 (the number of teams in each match), not 8.
: And take (170/27.5) you get 6.1 Q-matches per team, which
: is different than the 4 we think we might actually get!
Correcting for the error above, the result is (approximately) 3, not 6.

I have also emailed Dean Kamen for more information regarding our team and its future, as I may have confused myself a bit. - ExcuseBoy [more]
