Re: 2014 Greater DC Regional

I wish I could be a cool kid. I'm busy getting 40 hours into 3 days so I can do the Regional without taking the vacation I don't have because snow days took it all .

Can't wait for Thursday though

We're looking forward to some wicked D from 2914 this year

Re: 2014 Greater DC Regional



The view is definitely problematic. From the sides you can see the field but really struggle to see the board, and from the front you can see the board but most of the field is cut off. Hopefully next year they'll put the judge's table on the other side of the field and slide the whole thing further away so we can all see.
