Re: Dynamic Planet B/C

Do you guys think that soinc is turning this event into a water-only event? Looking at past event rotations , you can see that from 2005 to 2012, the topics glaciers, oceanography, earthquakes & volcanoes, and freshwater have all been used. However, in the past 4 years starting in 2019, it look...

Re: Invasive species?

On the scioly wiki for green generation there are no listed invasive species, do we assume that its just the category of 2022 invasive species? The official rules for Green Generation do not include a specific invasive species list (unlike the past ID event Invasive Species, which perhaps you're co...

Yes, Green Generation is run in both divisions - there are a few additional topics tested in the Div C event which aren't tested in the Div B event, which are specified in the rules.

What forum members were running events, actually? Are there other alums who might be able to tell us where they are in the process?

Re: New Jersey 2020

Obviously I'm rooting for a particular team to win but I hope most of all that tests are a good enough quality that everyone feels their preparation was worth it and that we don't have any controversies with events being thrown out and stuff :cry:

Re: New Jersey 2019

If you look at least year's results, http://njscienceolympiad.org/tournaments/2018/state/2018_state_finals_results.pdf , they were 29 points away from CMS, and the HS was 7 points from 2nd place, 27 away from 1st. Let's not forget 2017 C; Montgomery ...

Re: New Jersey 2019

As a grad who still likes to be nosy once in a while, are we all still waiting for the full results, the state website seems not to have been updated yet? I thought they only took a while to release results in 2017 because they were controversial but I guess...?

Re: How do you guys sign up for events?

We do it like lumo at the beginning of the season, but some events are definitely more under-subscribed than others, so at invitationals (especially since none of the invitationals follow our State schedule, so somebody will be hoping to do 2 events at States but they conflict with each other at inv...
