Just to add another opinion to the growing number... I think regionals is a good idea. Why? The real question is why do we need a reason? Don't you all want to play some ultimate? The winter is closing in on us - it's just about the last chance to have an outdoor tournament. Is everyone so keen to give up the real game and go and play indoors? OK - if you do need a reason, then I agree with the view that it's good to have a tournament where University teams can introduce their new players to the game. Unfortunately, these same teams who would benefit most are probably rushed off their feet trying to sort out publicity/Freshers fair activities at the moment (I know I am). Well, that's my excuse for not hosting a tourney, anyway. I also agree with the idea that it might be down to the regional co-ordinators to make sure it happens one way or another. This might just be me being naive, but what is their job, anyway? If it doesn't involve this, then why not?
