That's a shame. The state competition should be the last place events are poorly run (even counting Nationals).bearasauras wrote:There were multiple problems including more than 1 team using their body parts to measure the items during the estimation portion but we're unable to determine the teams that did that.phil9047 wrote:Does anybody have any idea why Metric Mastery and Can't Judge a Powder had their "anomalies" and couldn't be counted?

Re: Southern California 2014
Hahaha... in Georgia the supervisors don't really care about the rules... 2 events thrown out, one not announced until afterwards, and in Metric Mastery we had to estimate some in inches (and that wasn't one of the two ).dragons790 wrote:I heard that the event supervisor(s) didn't follow the rules at all for Metric Mastery so it wasn't even scored.phil9047 wrote:Does anybody have any idea why Metric Mastery and Can't Judge a Powder had their "anomalies" and couldn't be counted?

For Powder, though, all I know is that they didn't conform to the rules for every team.
Muscatel steamrolled us this year, as usual. But state was still really fun, especially ento. And the event supervisor for it had a pretzel stick in his pocket.

Re: Southern California 2014
"The target audience is team coaches and assistant team coaches..." I think our coach is going.
Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.
You should only create problems, that only you know solutions to.

Re: Southern California 2014
Anyone know when the 2015 State Tournament will be? My school is holding a trip to Washington DC from April 6-10th, and the only way I won't go is if it conflicts with States.
