This was our second PitP and the weather combined with equipment problems to tank our meats. The cyberq wifi went insane and helped us drop from 17th to 98th in brisket.. (ouch.. I wasn't expecting another 17th but .. ouch.)
I agree about the water. They did that to us last time - we were set up basically where Aporkalypse was. Many of the teams got hoses, but everyone back with us had to haul buckets. If you are going to do that, either do it across the board or don't.. I didn't notice any difference between the hookup-permitted tanks and the one we were on.
The weather cooperated just long enough to lull us into a false sense of security. Both ends of the big tent were open and dry until about 3am, when it promptly switched 90 degrees and began blowing 10+ feet in.. (Of course it switched to soak the gear instead of the cooks.)
Congrats to all who walked! It was a fun contest, problems aside.
