Maybe ;) but seriously I actually do check every day just to see what's new (also because I'm bored sometimes :| )

UCC and NJIT Event Locations have been posted in the Event Schedule. In addition, event clarifications are officially closed for Regionals.

we have a problem. PA thread has surpassed us in replies.
What do you guys think about Montgomery coming to UCC? Do you think there is a legit reason or if they are just coming to compete with Community?

What do you think about getting community middle school getting 8th in dynamic at Rustin, when they got 7th in dynamic at nationals the previous year?

Well then let's get 'em again :) In terms of Montgomery, I'm intrigued only because Community obviously has a lot of defend coming from a 3rd place at nationals while Montgomery is on the upswing, having reclaimed 2nd at States last year. Montgomery being at UCC certainly challenges Community a bit more at regionals especially with the reduced event slate, where the margin for error is reduced even more.

I think of that being just things change in SciOly year in year out and that anything can happen. I'm sure Community will use that experience to learn and keep improving. Also I should note that the nature of SciOly being you have to do very well in all the events consistently rather than just at one event means you could have schools that are super good at Dynamic Planet that just never can show it at nationals because they're not consistent enough everywhere else to get out of States.

Very true. I'd like to point out that DP changes in topics every 2 years. At 2017 Nationals, we got 23rd in Dynamic, so having that experience from last year was very beneficial to us. Hopefully we can fix that and do well this year, but that's putting last year's performance into context.
