That list shows that a district size/match schedule is only a good approximation to ONE CA event. More teams means more practice matches to allow them all some practice. After that, it's either fewer matches per team or more matches to get them all playing. (Ironically, the smallest events had the most open slots. Figure that one out.)

True, but I think beside the point. At least 2 of the teams in this match played seven and nine practice matches each. (I just used CD's FRC Spy, so teams that played in elims a lot had the P match list cut off.) This is more like half a district event. I'm not complaining--I think we just get what we pay for. It's a trade-off, but I like having 2 events with unbag time and less missed work.
