3rd events starting

[johnr]

Ok, 3rd events are starting for teams in Michigan were they do not get any points toward states. They were given this chance to play at a reduced rate to help round out the fields to forty. I can see how their points will be given to the next team at the end of qualifying rounds, but how are they going to distribute the points after selections and finals? What happens if the #2 captian is a 3rd event team? Who gets the points? What happens if the 3rd event team is 2nd selection for 8th seed and they win it all? So many different ways this could play out. Is this all written out some place?
Then there is the question if you are a 3rd event team do you except invitation to play in finals? I say yes as long as their points are given to next deserving team. I just hope this doesn't cause hard feelings among the teams.
