I don't see how this would be so very different from team members being on the Regional Committees or volunteering to be Inspectors. Here in Southern California, if we eliminated all the teams that had members that were on the committee or otherwise volunteering, we would have eliminated at least 25% of the teams that attended last year.
I would avoid having team members acting as Judges and not allow them to inspect their own robot or that of a mentee team. We used those guidlines last year and nobody had any complaints at the Team Forum last night.
