I'm pretty sure large regionals have 16 alliances instead of 8. I'm not a good writer though. --Piotrm 22:50, 28 May 2004 (EDT)
- No, always 8 alliances, and I cite a rule:
At the end of the Qualification Rounds, the top eight ranked teams will become the Alliance Leads. The top ranked Alliances will be designated, in order, Alliance One, Alliance Two, etc., down to Alliance Eight. Alliances One through Eight may invite any team below them in the rankings, that has not already declined an invitation, to join their alliance. The Alliance Selection Process will consist of two rounds so that each of the eight playoff alliances consists of three teams. --SilverStar 22:51, 28 May 2004 (EDT)
- Would you say the FIRST people at the Canadian Regional broke their own rules? Or could it be that perhaps the people who wrote the manual forgot about 16 alliance regionals? --Piotrm 23:23, 28 May 2004 (EDT)
