In the 2018 manual, "A black surface with a ferrous metal component to which magnets will adhere is recommended. Directions and resources on how to retrofit an existing LSS can be found at http://www.soinc.org. Can anybody tell me where this is?

Most likely chalker hasn't finished making it yet.

Yep... I'll get around to it soon I promise.

I think we should just have someone pick a target, and whenever people have time they do it, and whoever got the most points pick the next target.

That's not how it works.

This is just something for our practice. We need 1 person to pick a target xcm away from the center and this is how we decide. It is just for practice.

Thank You! If you can post the planned parts we can start ordering it ahead of time (we know it isn't final).

Question, can you place a piece of paper over the laser shoot board so you can place your mirrors correctly?

Keep in mind that you can't move the barrier mirror.

(1) What happens when you accidently knock over the mirror or move the mirror? (2) Can you intentionally lift the barrier mirror and put it back down (to put something under the barrier mirror)? (3) is the location of the barrier mirror marked? How does the proctor ensure that it is not moved?

(1) It depends on the supervisor I guess: We did that at states and he let us put it back up. I don't know if every supervisor will be that nice.
(2) No
(3) Some proctors will have it taped down (like at nats this year) and of course the proctor will be watching you.

Are you allowed to use tape to tape down templates or paper on the kit? Thanks!

I think so, although I’ve never done that so you’ll have to check on that somewhere.

As long as you can remove it without damaging the setup, it should be ok.
