have no marshalls at them, so not an issue.
So you think that, on a whim, for no reason, WTC just decided to add that rule?
Would not be the first time.
Just like when USAT said 10mm wetsuits could not be used. Just a few board members that had issues, not the membership.
You should read the Kevin Moats thread (if it still exists) dealing with his punishment regarding the lack of a TUE. It quickly hit on the fact that he used the mirror to check for marshals.
