what supplies are needed for the state?
just a protractor, a USGS map, pencils...anything else?

[zyzzyva980]

Other than that:
Ruler
NOTES (They're big, you definitely want those)
Map symbol sheet (Missed that at last tournament when I forgot them)
Calculator
String

Yeah, there's a lot of stuff you're gonna want to have. Check the rules.

is there a website where you find the rules?
our coach has a book with all of the rules in it, but I was wondering if there was another place to look online.

[zyzzyva980]

Don't think so, not that I can find. Talk to your coach tomorrow then, see if you can get a copy.

there is. go to http://www.soinc.org for the nat website and all the state websites can be found on that website too. All national event rules can be found there.

i got totally ripped off at an invitational. they had to throw a test together b/c they didnt have one ready and i had the answers to half of it that they didnt write themselves. they thought that is wasnt fair to the others even though it wasnt against the rules. they didnt let me place in the spot i was supposed to so i had to take 7th. my coach was really mad. this ever happen to any one else??? and where in the world is the UCP?!?!

...? At our first invitational they used the same one that they did I think for regionals and we could have had the answers in our binder, but didn't. Even if we did, they probably wouldn't have counted us out for it.
