Is a delegate to a competition really that necessary?

[Jhong253]

I hope I don't sound too... annoyed/pissed off.

"You don't just randomly start a competition. You look at the potential competitors, those who are nearby, etc. In my case, there are experienced competitors nearby and a delegate too. Again, I said that sometimes a delegate is definitely needed. Stop ignoring that part."

I'm not ignoring that, just noticing the sometimes part.
I want to point out that while you may have certain conditions, not everyone else has the benefits that you do.

Yes, there are many people around who are in worse situations than I am in terms of organizing sense. Yes, I have some benefits.
But I'm about to have almost 4 months of work thrown right out the wind because of one of the "benefits" I have. Would you be very happy in situations like this?
I understand almost everything goes the opposite way I'd want it to happen, and I understand the delegates have their own lives to take care of. But, I would try everything I can do to try to get around that before my work gets thrown out. Quitting isn't always the best solution. I'm trying to do everything I can before I quit.

Somehow, this got kind of off topic. My original intention was to discuss about the need of delegates, but it turned into a topic about Indiana.

Why didn't you work with a delegate throughout the entire process? You wouldn't be in this situation if you had worked continually with the delegate throughout your process.

Why would a delegate want work with me unless he's a co-organizer or something? Besides, I don't think a delegate would do that unless he's absolutely sure he's delegating. I did that last time with Jim, and I felt I bugged him too much.
