True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
No, this is unrealistic. We rely on the teams to be clear enough in their descriptions and depictions so we can easily identify the general location, but specific details may be beyond our individual understanding. If an appraiser does have enough background information to be well informed about a location, he/she should not be too picky about specific details found to be somewhat inaccurate.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. The appraiser should move to a location close enough to see the Gear.Explanation
Appraisers should move as close as needed, provided they do not interfere with the team’s presentation, in order to see well enough. If the gear is still too small, then the appraisers must closely examine it at the end of the presentation and question the team thoroughly so they can have a very good understanding of what it is and how it should operate.Rate this question:

An audience member with no connection to the Team shouts out words of encouragement during the presentation, This represent interference?
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
This is False if the person shouting is a random audience member, this is normally regarded as incidental and the individual should be quietly encouraged to refrain – no deduction is warranted. If the person is a team parent, a warning should suffice if it only happens once. If it comes from another team member of the team manager, then a small deduction may be appropriate as it could impact the effectiveness of the presentation (discuss this with your Head Appraiser and/or Challenge Master).Rate this question:
