Why would you want to remove yourself from the running? Is there a clause in the manual that says you have to be present at The Championship Event to win a award there?

Or were you talking about the running for a Regional? In that case I still don't understand that.

I personally don't undertstand that team's logic Jenny. Care to shed some light on some details if you know them?

I know this makes sense for logistics purposes, but doesn't that violate GP big time?

Arghh... Well.. then again, if you say, we (as team A) can't go, but we want team B to go in our place, and Team C, D, E, F, & G get mad that their chances just went out the window cause B knows A and got their free ride, I can see where this becomes a problem..

This is why I hate logistics. You can't please everyone all at one time.
