Anyone know why Tech Problem Solving was cancelled for div C?

It is on the announcements page and says it is "not a valid event": The Technical Problem Solving Event will NOT be run. It is not a valid event.

probably due to lack of ES

Technical Problem Solving at the Washington State Tournament did not have probes since they didn't arrive in time, but the event was still run.

Does anyone know what we're expecting to see from some of the building events?

There are some great aviators in CE, i wouldn't be surprised to see the winner of Wright Stuff flying in the 3-4 minute range.

Harriton has already proven themselves to be formidable in Bungee Drop at SE's regionals getting a score of 10, although I wouldn't be surprised if lower ranked teams take medals here as some teams aiming for a Nationals bid might play bungee a bit safe.

I believe there were several teams in SE whose Scramblers went around the can, so expect to see that.

Mission Possible is volatile as ever, expect to see many touches and many nonfunctional devices.

I don't know too much about bridges, so I can't really say much about that.

In Air Trajectory I believe top teams will go for (and make) bucket shots.

For mixed building study events such as Compound and Time, the highest device scores will be in the high 40s, so the test will likely make be the determining factor.

15 hours and 40 minutes until events start!

What scores do you B-divisioners think you'll get at some of the events?
