The teams who stopped coming
Teams who have cooked this contest before, were not at the most recent edition, and have competed somewhere in the last eighteen months — so they are still active, they just are not here. Sorted by how many times they used to come, which is the order worth working down.

Check your date
Team home regions are inferred from team names and where they cook, and a team is “still active” if it has appeared on any results board in the last eighteen months. Everything here comes from the public listings and results at kcbs.us; contests that never published results are invisible to it, so read low numbers as “not on file” before reading them as “did not happen”.
