<DIV>One thing that happens when masters judge masters is you lose the judge training, do you go ahead and mix in some other classes as judges as well?</DIV>

<DIV class=plainMail><BR>After a discussion at our Pattern seminar here on Saturday we have come up with what we think is a workable solution to this problem.<BR>First we will wait to see how the classes form on the morning of our contests. If we have bad numbers in that the Masters class dominates the ranks we will then split the class into 2 groups by picking the names out of a hat. Group A will judge Group B. This remains the situation throughout the contest. Since this doesn't give the contests organizers a chance to have 2 sets of awards the trophys will be awarded by a flip of a coin. So say they announce the winners of 3rd place both guys come up and flip the coin. Ideally the awards are not trophy's but paper in which case the award problem is solved.<BR>As far as District points we just add up the numbers for each group seperatly.<BR>Does anyone see a problem with this? Thanks, Mike Mueller<BR><BR><BR>
