If NJ were a state that sent two teams to Nats then there might be slightly less stress and competition between 1st and 2nd but I'm sure controversies would come up between 2nd and 3rd :P Of course everyone always wants to go to Nats but I guess we just... Have to deal, right? (And stress over the precise definition of 5 days shouldn't 5 days be almost finished?)

Well, lumosityfan, at least JP Stevens continues it's dominance in structures. :D If only our hs could do the same in other events.

And I see why they deliberated for all of the 5 days possible.

tbh, I'm just wondering if they could illuminate us on the thought process and be transparent on how they got to the final decision.

the fact it took 5 days meant they thought about it.

NJSO probably already knew what they were going to do as soon as heli was appealed, and were also aware of how controversial this was; thus, they probably just waited the 5 days to make it seem like they deliberated about this, when they actually did not at all.
