I don't know how it'll be at Nationals but my experience with combined ceremonies are not good (i.e lots and lots of high pitched screaming). For me watching the other division's awards makes my heart rate go up but, I guess it'll be interesting.

Why does it make your heart rate go up?

Oh, no, B Division students are awful with the screaming. Seriously, y'all need to tone it down a bit. But I figure you might as well see the positive in a situation over which you have no influence.

Anyone planning to bring a launcher (bottle rockets) for nats? I think everyone would benefit if someone did and decided to share.

Prediction Contest will open Wednesday afternoon and will close Saturday morning before the tournament. Sorry for the delay, we've been trying to get some things to work.

Will the format be similar to last years?
