Reasons why someone would want a copy posted on the board:
1. Yours.
2. To study it ahead of time.
3. To study it as a guide when their state doesn't use it.

No one ever admits to #2 when asking for the test, but providing a copy would circumvent the whole testing process for a lot of states. Posting it to the board doesn't just send it to your computer.

As JR state, whoever did it last year shouldn't have.

Same old, same old...every freaking year!

The accepted rule of thumb is that anyone looking for a copy of the exam before they write the test is also looking to cheat. And the person that posted the test last year was an unethical jerk. You're only cheating yourselves imo.
Jurassic what are you talking about? On the state website I have a blank answer sheet to fill in. I have a MAILED paper copy of the test and it is not with me at the moment. THE QUESTIONS DO NOT APPEAR WHEN I OPEN THE TEST ON THE WEBSITE, ONLY THE ANSWER SHEET. If I do not have a copy of the questions in front how am I supposed to know what the questions even are??? I wish the test appeared on the website so I wouldn't need to keep track of the paper copy but it does not.

In my state the test is open book. It is widely distributed. I was not aware it was a secret squirrel type of test. Are we talking about the same test? I've had a copy of it since September 15. It is mailed to every registered official in our state to be completed in open book format at any time before the deadline of November 23. It is blatantly announced as being an open book test designed to encourage research of the rules. I was not aware it was kept under lock and key in other states. I thought all NFHS states likely operated under the same system. Request withdrawn for all the trouble it seems to be causing.
