Re: Event Predictions
After watching kick off I honestly didn't believe were were getting a real Frisbee. And well when I opened the KOP... holy cow. Having played some ultimate, I have seen/felt what a flying Frisbee will do to one's head and it %@#$ hurts.

Last year we didn't really have a problem with anyone testing shooters in their pits at sdr however the practice field is always a mess. At our per-ship event we had some close calls of different teams on the field practice shooting and people trying to get across it. Also I believe that human players should NOT be allowed to practice any kind of throwing on the practice fields unless it is 100% devoid of robots/people (which is never). At SDR the practice field is always just a free for all, there needs to be some clear indications/no walk zones to make sure one gets hurt.

Maybe having the area around the fields be a NO GO zone for anyone outside the teams playing/crew would be a good idea. And give the VIPs/etc a viewing spots up the stands that is a lot safer then sanding near the field.
