Make sure to read the program guide.  It contains rules that apply to every team and is updated yearly. 

Long-term problems are written to provide just enough guidance to solve the problem without limiting creativity. If a team has questions about the interpretation of the Long-Term Problem limitations, they may submit for a clarifitcation.  Check clarifications often to see updates to your problem!
Program Guide
Clarifications
Every team participates in Spontaneous.  It is important to practice Spontaneous skills!  It can mean the difference in a team advancing to the next level of competition or not.  
Spontaneous Info
Remember that you cannot solve the problem based on the synopsis alone.  You must buy a membership in order to get the full set of rules.  If you need help at any stage, whether it's getting started or even how to ask questions about the problems, please contact us!  We want you to make great lifelong memories with Odyssey of the Mind and we have many people to help you at any step in your journey.
What to expect for your team's Long Term Competition:
​
When teams arrive (check your communications, but usually at least 20 minutes prior to the performance time) to the Long Term Problem site  where they will perform, they will first go to Pre-Staging.  This area is for the team and coaches only.  Family and friends should go to the performance area and find a seat before the scheduled performance time. 

     In Pre-Staging, a judge will look at the team's paperwork to make sure they have all the correct forms and look for any possible issues.  The judge expects the team (not the coach) to be able to answer any questions they might have.  The judge will also check for hazardous materials and appropriate foot coverings.  They will check for a correct membership sign and Pre-Staging Judges will ask the team if they will allow the audience to take video or flash photography during the performance.    


What to expect for your team's Spontaneous Competition:
Regional Problem Captains are responsible as voting members of the Regional Board.  They train judges about all the rules in their particular problem and make sure the judges are prepared for competition day.  Problem Captains must be knowledgable about all aspects of their problem and be ready for anything to happen on competition day.
