Question: Which version of Scratch is going to be used at the competitions? Is there a difference in how the versions operate that would change the overall use?

That's really going to be up to the individual event supervisor at each tournament, but I'd think it's a relatively safe assumption to assume the most recent version will be used.

The rules say that you can bring headsets and a microphone, but are we allowed to bring our own computer mice (in case if the tournament directors decide to use laptops)?

General rule #1: www.soinc.org/ethics_rules. Submit an FAQ if you want an official response.

Can any suggest a theme that I should practice with?

You should use any of the themes suggested in the division c rules this year. Some suggestions are wave, fire, Gravity, silly sports, frogs, or Newton's Second Law.
Does anyone know where I can find the minimum system requirements for scratch?

Also does anyone know where I can find a copy of the rules? Last time I checked on the official website, it wasn't up.

Are you allowed to use built in Scratch art and sound assets, and is there a point reduction for doing so?
