i didnt get notifications sorry guys~ thanks for answering yes we are doing 1 min prelims and 2 min finals~ we are mostly having 1a so no this is not a nyyl event. we are however working towards that for tx state and are as nyyl compliant as we can be. the wheels for nyyl event seems to take a while to turn so its in the works hopefully soon :wink: ---
