I know at regionals and districts the judges may know the teams more personally, but I feel like the award is still given based upon the submission and outreach quality, right?

You guys are taking part of fast response to questions about my script waaay out of it's context and intended meaning. I was referring to how there's usually a gap in the teams at regionals and that makes it easier to predict wins for the script. At champs the teams, statistically, are tied and the script doesn't know who to predict, since the deciding factor (submission quality) isn't considered by the script. I was in no way implying regional Chairman's (or any Chairman's for that matter) wasn't quality or submission based. Hate to cause confusion, would never disrespect the award or the people judging it
