I am having a major brain fart. But remind me, how to randomly assign boxes for a cross country meet within Hy-Tek

thanks

Tbh I never knew that Hy-Tek made box assignments???

Personally, I'd just upload a list of teams (e.g., PDF) and have ChatGPT spit it out in markup table format.

I agree. I've never done that in hytek. Usually the meet director handles the box assignments at the meets i do.

Sounds like people are overthinking it. Just throw the list of teams or regions or whatever into a list randomizer, randomize it a random number of times and be done with it.  Lots of pages that provide it, very common thing for the multi-level marketing folk to do giveaways LOL

yeah, so Hy-tek doesnt do this. I was timing 3 different regionals at the same park on the same day, in a state that I typically do not time in....Every place that I generally time in, the host school or the official has the boxes set. They asked me for it this time...I had thought Hy-tek offered that, but you are correct, they do not. 

So I just ended up pulling up excel and put all the teams in excel and then did the randbetween function to generate the boxes
