Following up Jonathan's point,
there is also a pretty serious money issue for
teams comming from far away. The setup for nationals doesn't sound that
dissimilar to the teams:pitch ratio at Warwick earlier this year. I came
from Scotland and it basically cost me over a pound a minute to play under
80 minutes of ultimate. Fair enough, if it's a small tournament (in terms of
importance) then it's your own choice to pay that, but for the national
finals a team like Aberdeen gets "shafted". Limiting enterant numbers due to
pitch numbers is a pretty logical thing, unless the TD is a money grabbing
git (not directed at anyone).
