If the judging is over why can't the results be posted. Seems a waste of time waiting another 2 weeks.

Because 714 judging sheets is a lot for one guy to process.

Why is there only one guy who can process the judging sheets?

 

[O'Henry]

Because there was only one guy running it, with the chief judge assisting. And I must say, a fine job on the days was done by both of them. Super smooth running and finished close to the scheduled time.

Gushers are really interesting in comps. The steward/s pour it best they can and may even have to leave it i.e change the roll call. The judge never really sees how its poured yet gets a beer with a bit a of bitter head and subdued carbonation. The judges judge the beer as presented! IMO, the beer should be whacked down for the presentation from bottle to jug.
I have seen some very ordinary beers blast from the bottle and yet judged on the up side.
I reckon throw gushers in the bin and return their entry fee (same cost as judging sheets mail out) Or are gushers the "new" beer?

edit, Did PP win anything? or did GB clean up again? or RandyRob?

Sponsorship.

By getting more people to the awards night = more exposure for the sponsors = better support from them etc.etc.

Curse the crass commercialisation of our hobby.

I heard one sponsor was turned down because he opened a shop too close to another sponsor down Freo way ? Looks like politics could be getting in the way of the comp.
