But to give you an example... Washington State has about 49 FRC teams
Michigan has 132 Washington sent 6 teams to CMP.. we had one regional to qualify .. Now part of that might be because Michigan teams can actually drive to Atlanta in a reasonable amount of time. 3000 miles is abit much to drive for us.

Michigan had 3 regional last year so we had 6x3=18 teams qualify for CMP. The rest went (primarily) just by signing up and paying the $5,000 fee. Nothing unfair about that, this opportunity was open to everybody.
