I've noticed that it's more of and intra-school/county rivalry competition than anything.

Oh well, I go to States on the 9th. It'd be cool to get gold.
Woot! Scorebot robot arms for the win! be sure you know how to do the flowcharts

oh, another note, you've finally got me thinking: its just like another sport where schools/counties/regions/states compete against each other.
