Pretty sure there were autoloaders.
No, it was indeed hand loaded last year. I've got a couple pics documenting the event. I'm not sure what they'll do this year.

It was hand loaded for Division B, but auto loaded for Division C last year at nationals. Anyway to find out if this will be the case this year? So much better to just use the auto loaders for both divisions. Thanks.

Yes, autoloading is much simpler/faster.

That's how it has been at every single I've been to over the past 2 yrs. so I'm starting to think that there is some type of consensus between the proctors that C gets autos and B gets hand.
Since all of the states are coming to an end, I thought we should compile a list of the best scores going to Nats just put team name, state, and score if they are going to nats.

I haven't been to state yet, but at regionals I got 6th place with 1680
. I'm pretty sure they messed up when ranking the teams... after all it was a pretty bad regional. They have messed up consistently over the years, which is not cool, especially when there is a possibility that their mistakes could keep the team from advancing to state.

We broke early due to a very simple part and ended up in second with a score of 1683 at the state competition.

Yep.
EDIT: Had Grayslake's boom gone to its full potential it probably would have taken first.
