Kinda random, but why do you edit a YDRC post containing all of your placements and other signature stuff when you can just put it onto your userpage?
Before they screwed up the colors within [hides], I was able to copy my existing signature over without changing the formatting. I've considered putting it on Things2do's Userpage, but I'd have to learn how to format it for the Wiki... As a side note, my character counting program says I've got 2457 characters on there. Besides, I probably own the most edited post on the forums...

If troy has won so many times in a row. Why don't they just...give them the bid?
That's what I hope will happen, but then what happens to Div. B?
This would seem logical, but there's no way they can technically just say Troy goes to nats, because it's "unfair" and "arbitrary." Perhaps they can set the precedent for the future where the state champions from the previous year become the representative the next year, but there's nothing (afaik) that allows this.
Sorry because I’m just being petty, but why does the idea get shot down when I say it(post is buried somewhere in National Tournament thread, though likely no one cares, haha)? Although it would directly benefit me, so there’s that.

I support the idea, because although it isn’t fair to lower placements and teams that improved(both points were brought up), at least the teams that go have proven their ability, versus a lottery or State board somehow choosing who they think is best.

My last hope for the season has been crushed... Sorry, seniors... Sorry seniors that would have been going to Nats for the first time... Sorry seniors that had gone to Nats for the last time without realizing... Sorry to teams that spend hundreds of hours, hoping this year would be the year they went to Nats... Sorry to the proctors that put in hours of work for nothing... Sorry to the people who had to make this decision... Sorry to everyone affected by COVID-19.

Hello everybody. This was our last chance of going to Nats in division B. And since I'm in California (and don't go to Troy) I don't think we're going to Nats anytime soon. RIP the dream. Let's just hope Nationals doesn't get canceled.
