Re: Registration 2010

There are scattered test teams strewn through the FIRST database, so when we get total teams back from a query it isn't always correct.

This year team 156 is an example. (Use Kevin's link. I'm posting an image because I no longer trust usfirst links to last until next year.)

P.S.
Waterloo is now at initial capacity (8am on 10/27)

Re: Registration 2010

I've noticed that 121 hasn't signed up for any events. Anyone have any details?

Are there any other notable teams that haven't signed up yet or aren't competiting this year?

121 appears to have reinvented itself as 78 this year.

Re: Registration 2010

At least one event has started to register teams off the waitlist. Both 48 and 2010 received notice of DC registration today.

Looks like DC moved 6 teams off the waitlist.

In my post of the Regional counts earlier, negative numbers indicate teams that have been moved off the waitlist. Onesies and twosies appear to be rookies, while large numbers seem to be everyone who was cooling their heels on the waitlist.
Since that posting DC, San Diego, 10K Lakes, and North Star have all moved additional teams off their waitlists.

A couple of regional team counts have also gone down as teams switched events or dropped out altogether.

P.S.

About 364 teams from last season are still missing from registration.
(9) from circa 1998, including 47, 65 & 121
(8) from 1999
(7) from 2000
(12) from 2001
(10) from 2002
(14) from 2003
(23) from 2004
(31) from 2005
(38) from 2006
etc.
See a general pattern here

Probably about half of those now missing won't return this season.
The other half are just late signing up, or are invisible on a waitlist somewhere.

Re: Registration 2010

From the FIRST website, there are 1497 Registered Team so far.

This is a net reduction of about 180 teams from 2009.

With 148 new teams, and 22 returning teams (teams that did not compete in 2009), that means 372 (22%) of the 2009 teams are not yet in for 2010.

Re: Registration 2010

I'd bet its the economy.
Hawaii has just 2 out of State teams sign up so far. That is a huge drop in just its 3rd year.

Yeah, I am aware of 78, but posts 4 and 5 (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=78494) make it seem that 121 would still be a team this year.
I believe 121 is on the wait list for the GSR. I have heard rumblings that the GSR wait list is in the process of being reviewed so we should know soon

Re: Registration 2010

Could Mark, Chris, or anyone else post the list of veteran teams that have not registered yet? Just wondering.

Thanks!

Re: Registration 2010

It's not quite as bad as all that.
Although growth is down by maybe half under last year, certainly due to economic reasons.
We (Team 358) did chose WPI over DC because it's so much cheaper for us, so Glenn must be seeing similar fallout.

Registration (1501) is currently ahead of last year at this same time by about 8%, or you can think of it as being 10 days ahead of last year. Most of the gain over last year is actually due to veteran teams returning, rather than rookies.

I'll add the list of missing teams as an attachment to this post around lunchtime when I'll have some time away from work. I don't want to inadvertantly, through no fault of my own, qualify for the Autodesk signup...

Attached (now) is the list of 357 missing teams that played last year.
Based on one past report at this time, there are probably another ~30 teams that registered, but don't yet show up on the full list of teams.
Some, such as 10 Long Island teams, are just invisible because they are sitting on our local regional waitlist.

Of course other teams, e.g., Israel, are traditionally late in registering. Teams 47 and 65 are only there because they merged into a new team.

Here's what the chart looks like so far...
