Hi Kris
I'm in as a judge if you need me.
Experience as a lifter:
7 NASA meets, most done in Kinross Prison (I was a visitor; 5 were done with certified judges, 2 done by inmates, which were tougher in my opinion.)
3 AAPF meets with official judges.
Handler at numerous other meets, including 2005 APF Nationals.
I've also been head referee at local meets we've hosted, as well as 3 Strongman events.
Chris

Chris, most excellent, welcome!  I moved your post to the meet registration thread to make it easier to keep track of whose doing what.

So far we have one lifter and one judge in for this one. Not a bad start!

Six lifters and one judge are in so far. If anyone else is still contemplating lifting in this meet, you have 25 hours left to sign up.

The sign-up deadline has passed, no more lifter sign-ups will be accepted for this meet. The lifters will be updated with all the info they need to proceed by early next week via e-mail.

Good luck to the seven of you who signed up!

All of you who are lifting in this meet have now been sent an e-mail with further instructions. Any and all questions are warmly welcome!

Meet weekend is rapidly approaching! This is the first meet where all lifters represent the USA. Six lifters made it to the starting line; unfortunately, Anthony had to pull out due to an injury.

We are still missing one judge, but as usual we will have one come judging time.

Good luck everyone! Remember to read the rules, especially the parts about clothing, videotaping angles and don't forget the newspaper.

I'm happy to announce that Joseph Reiter has stepped in as the third judge. This is his second meet as a judge, he also judged the March 2008 Powerlifting meet.

Thanks Joe!

The Friday and Saturday lifters have submitted their clips. Those of you lifting today Sunday, have a great one!

Good luck, everyone! Cheers and screams from this corner of the universe.

Is there an FTP option? I'm trying to attach to email, and the files are too big.

You should have received an e-mail with the information on how to upload the video clips on July 7th. I just resent it, if you don't get it and it's not in your spam filter let me know.

Hope you had a good meet, love the shirt. 

All lifters have submitted their lifts. The meet will now be prepared for judging. Stay tuned!

Update: the meet will be submitted to the judges sometime tomorrow Sunday.

This meet ended up coinciding with our family moving into a new apartment. Since there were some issues that needed manual intervention I was unfortunately unable to get the meet submitted in the midst of painting-packing-moving frenzy. We have now properly landed at our new address, although we are still immersed in a sea of boxes...

The meet is now with the judges. As usual, they are expected to finish their judging within one week from now. You can follow the judging progress in the box above the forum. As soon as the judging has been completed the results will be released, rankings updated and so on.

Can't wait to see how this one goes...

Two judges have already done their thing, 67% done now.
