For paid bids- you have to give what you're eligible for, but that doesn't stop you from giving MORE. You just can't give LESS. Hence those situations where they screw up on bids and magically give out extra to the proper teams.Oh, I see. Yes, they're obligated to give out paid bids - but I don't think they have to give as many as they're eligible for.
I just meant that the only downside realistically of less at large bids per paid bids is that EPs has less bids to advertise with. But at large bids don't actually pay for full paid bid teams like others have claimed.
ETA: Actually, in a weird way, those who end up on AL bids pay twice, in a way. They pay for the comp where they're hoping for a paid (and the money they pay goes to someone else's paid bid), AND when they sign up for Worlds. In a weird way, it's like paying twice. That sucks.
