OK, being a rookie team, I've got a question about the judging for awards during the championships. During our Regionals, there were judges all over us, stopping at the pit continuously throughout both days. We won Rookie All Star, and I can see how we had a shot at it, with all of the exposure to al of the judges. In Atlanta, the only judges that stopped by our pit were (2) together, in the first hour of the first day (Friday.) Is that normal?

The students who talked to them told me that they were non-technical judges. How do you get technical judges to stop by? Or do you have to do extremely well with the first set, for more to stop by? I would appreciate other teams' experiences with this. How many stopped by your pits?
