Suggestions for organization of "the Championship"

[Jay Lundy]

First of all, I know a thread like this was started several months ago, but with all the anger about the recent changes I think that we should restart the thread. So with that out of the way, here is the question:

Since you disagree with the recent changes, what would you rather have seen done to Nationals, if anything at all?

Lets try to keep this civil. Post your ideas, and if you see an idea that you disagree with or feel would not be possible, say so but in a calm manner. Maybe if we can all agree on some changes, however small they may be (maybe changing the points needed to qualify to 4 or something), then FIRST will listen.
