So 2012 is in Florida, right? And 2013 is thus in Dayton? I too would not mind having a tournament to the West, but as I graduate in 2013, alas, it will not happen while I compete. I would love to help out in an event after I graduate at nationals, though.

No matter what the experiment's result, there will always be someone eager to:(a) misinterpret it(b) fake it, or (c) believe it supports his own pet theory.

They may have invitationals later on in the year or earlier, if they test on the previous year's material. It could help teams prepare for next year or prepare for Nationals, though I'm not sure if they have them anyway.

In the past years I have thought that the conflicts were very cleverly made, but this year they seem like they are not the best arrangement. However, I really like that all teams have the same conflicts, I think that makes the competition as fair as possible. I just really hope the people in charge of the national tournament take a close look at the scheduling and make changes they deem proper.
Hey if you don't mind, could you post a link to national schedule? Or simply post the national schedule here? I'm very interested to see it
