Re: Chairmans 2014
Just a few tips for Chairman's. We submitted for the first time last year. Cannot believe how much better and smoother this year went. Just know that it'll get better.

1. Strongly suggest submitting on Wednesday night. Servers can get weird on Thursday morning so make sure you at least have SOMETHING in STIMS on Wednesday night, just in case.

2. The Executive Summary (12 short answers), Essay (10,000 characters), and pictures are due by Thursday at 12pm ET.

3. Ask your mentor to go to the team summary in TIMS. There is a "Judge's Info" section. Make sure you fill those short answers in too. All judge's will see those too.

4. The speech, interview, and video are due at your Regional. Make sure you read the rules on the video. We messed up last year and had it in the wrong codec or whatever which made it super choppy. Anyway, just make sure you read the rules.

Hope that helps! Probably more advice than you wanted. Haha.

Good luck and have fun!
