Go to Post Engineering is so much easier when you give all the components personalities. Then you just watch the drama unfold and try to fix it. - EricVanWyk [more]

People might get confused and think you're talking about politicians, especially in an election year. I'm sure many will be guest speakers at various events, so the DC's may think we need to put PEOPLE on the field in a slot if you call them that

(OK, bad joke)

How is the audience selection communicated with teams in the pits? Does Pit Admin announce the results?

As far as I know, there is no communication back to the pits. However, the audience selection category is printed explicitly on the match schedule so you'll have that known. Usually, you can look on the field and tell unless you're one of the first three matches after an audience selection. Even then, most of the time the DC will have been by the field for it anyway and have heard. At the absolute worst, you'll find out which one it is at the same time as the other three defenses you weren't going to know about anyway.

We call them "French Ramps" but will probably have to tell our drive team to use a more conventional term
