I think it was the latter, since last year there were only four teams
competing in R3. However, 3/4 ended up splitting the field into two
divisions of seven, so practically speaking I'm not sure how much was
accomplished. The tournament director in 3/4 also indicated that CBI is
thinking about merging other regions, and that 3 and 4 were combined
this year to test things out.
