now for a better idea…

most competitions are registered with the AHA.  What if to enter NHC, you must win a gold in your category of that registered competition?  How this might work is if a competition gets 500+ entries, then the AHA will give them 28 tickets to nationals.  The competition organizers hand out those tickets to the first place.  That way, the less experienced homebrewer gets feedback from the smaller competitions and the more competitive homebrewer needs to win first before “shotgunning” the first round.

See the MCAB

And see Denny’s response to that suggestion in the other thread…

or go the mcab route and have other contests act as qualifiers.

That’s been discussed and unanimously voted down by the Governing Committee as being to exclusive.
