Emergency/Bad Weather Policy

Carter County Department of Education will require the event to be canceled due to inclement weather. Please watch for an update from the event partner if the event must be rescheduled or canceled due to weather. 

Refund and Payment Policies

Refunds:

If the Event Partner cancels the event: 

Refunds will be issued if event is cancelled by EP. Refunds will NOT include the $5 processing fee collected by Robot Events.

If you request to wait list your team/teams:

Teams will only be moved to the waitlist within 2 weeks of their registration closing date. NO TEAMS WILL BE MOVED TO THE WAITLIST ONCE THE EVENT CLOSES TO REGISTRATION ON ROBOTEVENTS.

If a Team completes registration for the event then chooses to withdraw or not attend:

refunds will NOT be issued. 

Payment Policy:

Due to the number of teams that register last season and either held their spots without payment or dropped out last minute allowing little to no time for those spots to be filled, we are enforing a new payment policy for all teams that register. This policy will be strictly enforced. 

Early-bird Registration:

Teams that register during the early-bird registration period will be required to have a PO on file prior to standard registration opening. Teams that have not updated their account to "PO processing" the the standard registration opening date will be moved to the waiting list. Order must be marked as paid on robotevents within 2 weeks of the registration date. Teams that do not have their payment posted within the 2 week allotted window will be moved to the waiting list (Note: Purchase order on file does not count as a paid in full status). Reach out to the event adminstrators if you have any questions. 

Standard Registration: 

All registrations must have a PO on file within 2 weeks of registering for the event. Additionally, registration must be paid in full 2 weeks after the team is registered, unless other arrangements have been made with EP. Unpaid teams will be moved to the Waitlist 2 weeks after registration and may be added back in IF there is room on the roster. If your registration payment process takes longer than two week, clear communication will keep teams from being moved to the Waitlist.  

Judging Format

Please review the following Judging Format options and keep the ones that apply to your event, and delete the others that do not apply. Please see the Remote Judging section of the Guide to Judging for more information.
