In an attempt to keep everything running smoothly, we have split competitors into "heats," as below. During each event, heats will be called up sequentially to solve. Even if you are not in heat 1 of an event, we advise you to stay close-by until your heat is called to ensure you don't miss your turn.

Highlighted names are our way to ensure we have volunteers evenly distributed; they can be ignored for the purpose of finding your heats.
