What if build results were just sent in privately? An actual video doesn't have to be shown - if anyone wants to cheat let them, it doesn't get them anywhere. (Cause given the online nature cheating on study events is ridiculously easy, so we just have to trust the competitor's integrity - the same should be done for builds)
Also, if you want I can write an Dynamic Planet Oceanographic Study test

Re: 2020 Friendly Science Competition
For builds, you could have it such that it is in a video call between the competitors and the supervisors. It would probably be the closest you could get to the actual competition.JoeyC wrote: ↑Mon Mar 09, 2020 5:52 amSamesciolyperson1 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 08, 2020 9:46 pm If it were me, I wouldn't send vids/pics of my builds on the internet lol

Re: 2020 Friendly Science Competition
If we're gonna do this seriously we should probably delegate responsibilities and start planning to make this happen ASAP.
Probably 1-2 test writers for each exam events and 1-2 build proctors for each build if we're running those at all
Further 2-3 people to work out the legalese of it all.
Finally one person that gives speeches or stuff
Also a director + staff for logistics

Re: 2020 Friendly Science Competition
Here's a spreadsheet I made to organize the roles. Anyone can edit and put their names in a position.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing
It's not official (the tournament's not official) but a good way to organize stuff
I'm not in charge of this, but I'll say it on behalf of everyone: only sign up for a role if you have the experience and time to do so. Staff should probably be mostly mods.
Also build events might not be done as of time of publishing and events like Heredity and Designer Genes might possibly be merged due to how similar they are

Re: 2020 Friendly Science Competition
I wouldn’t give div B and C the exact same test... it would be extremely difficult to make it a good difficulty
