Can’t wait!

Any idea when the volunteer assignments will be out? Just wondering…

Phil: Thanks for volunteering! Unfortunately, we had a slight technical glitch, so if you could re-register, we’ll put you in a position. (Anyone who signed up before mid-May, please re-register or pm me and I’ll verify I have you on the list.) We will email all volunteers closer to the day of the event.

We can always use volunteers, so please sign up! Especially anyone who wants to be trained for key volunteer roles in MAR this coming year!

Done and done. Also instructed a few friends who had registered early to re-register.

Looking forward to the event!

We now have 36 Awesome Teams!

Not that it’s the end of the world, but we actually represent the West Windsor-Plainsboro School District, and have students from both high schools (WWP North & South).

That said, The MidKnight Inventors are SO, SO excited for Ramp Riot! We’ve had a great time in the past. See you all this weekend!

The audio is saturated Turn it down.

Elims alliances, taken from the stream.

This doesn’t include the 4th team from each alliance, I didn’t realize there would be 4 when I grabbed the screenshot and it wasn’t on stream when I went back. I’ll update this if they show the alliances again.
