Registration 2011

[Mark McLeod]

Purely waitlisted teams don't show up, but the same teams were invisible last season...

FIRST's estimate of 2200 total teams is on the order of 580 new teams over and above vets (assuming the standard 10% dropout rate). That's about double the number of rookies last year, which would be great!

• Texas is supposed to explode because of state support and they've provided roughly 230 event slots for everyone (104 teams last year).
• Washington has possibly doubled their event capacity. But they don't show up on the registered list, so Washington's growth is unknown (59 teams last year). One traitor is registered for Oregon
• Israel is a known quantity and the event capacity hasn't risen from last season, so I don't see them providing a flood of rookies.
• Michigan can be estimated by the number of District events, so they'd need to add District events to increase over last year. They have room now for ~20 rookies.
