I was an RI at Worlds last year. Wandering around aimlessly trying to be helpful. I noticed a team using a propane torch. I think to myself: "Are open flames legal?". Told an LRI.

It was a veteran team that got a good talking to.

and focus on the rookies who need the help.
I tend to cut the rookie teams a little slack (something like Team Number size on the bumper is a little off), just because they have a hard enough time with the big picture. I'm harder on the veteran teams because they should know better.

I RI at Wisconsin, which tends to be late in the season. Most teams have already competed at another regional. It seems like every year I find a violation that was missed at the prior regional. They complain, so I get the LRI involved to confirm the problem.
