This year's comp, traditionally held on a Tuesday, was moved to Thursday for fear of rain. Thursday was also the last day of school, which includes a huge campus block party. I thought this would be a good thing, as UBC's limited police force would have their hands full with general drunken frat boy shenanigans. What I failed to realize is that the RCMP called in many, many auxiliary cops -- including the Richmond police force.

This year's contest had me sweating. Firstly, April kinda snuck up on me, and I really wanted the competition to be held before the end of classes. This meant giving people only four days notice of the event, which probably explains the lack of international participants. Making such last minute travel arrangements would be difficult and expensive. Yeah right. International participants? Nope, despite being the largest, longest running, most prestigious buildering contest in the universe, the clientele has always been locals only.
