I've personally never had to draw a PDG to answer any of the test questions.

Well if it says that, I guess it's settled. Jazzy's event supervisor needs to read the rules. (Or Jazzy could very politely point out the rules to him/her.) Although... personally, I can't find that statement. Is it in General Rules?

It was in the general rules last year, I don't see anything about it in this year!

Rulers have been provided at all of the meets I've been to. But the idea of drawing one on the edge of one of your note sheets is smart. I'm totally going to do that, just in case.

Apparently transparencies aren't allowed. Meh, my teammates would like to know.

A ruler?

Anyways, does anybody have any hard tests? Say, from nats last year, or states (preferably a competitive state?) or a really competitive invitational? Say, Bishop Foley (since bogoradwee got 9th with 25.2%, I'm assuming it was hard)? I'd really like to take those. Put them on the test exchange.

sure, i'll post it on monday, seeing as that's the next time i'll be at school. at least i think i got a 25.2%... it just said 25.2 on it, so i assumed that it was a percentage

Sorry, apparently, if I post that test, I would be breaking a copyright law.

They set copyrights...?

Well, Mark Van Hecke did make it.

Would emailing it also break copyright?

Who is it copyrighted by? Perhaps we can ask his/her permission to put it on the test exchange?

Hey all,

My regionals is Saturday, so i'm beginning to prepare my 10 pages (5 double sided sheets) of information. This is not my primary event, nor is it my partner's primary event. We are just going in to try our best. I really have no clue what I should be putting on my sheets. We dont seem to have to know any definitions or formulas, so i was hoping for some advice. I will definitely be making a ruler on one corner, however. That's smart.

thanks!
