I already have the answers.

My main point is that if someone is doing something you don't like, ignore it. There is no reason for you to start attacking those of us who would like a copy of the answers. In my area, it takes a month for the tests to get marked. I would like to know what my score is the day after I submit my test.

If some people are using them to cheat, then so be it, that is on their conscience, not any of ours.

Also, I don't think it fair to assign playoff games based soley on exam marks. Doing well on the exam has no bearing on what kind of official you are. Honestly, who really needs to know what the maximum width of the rubber seam separating the panels of the ball?? How will this bit of information help an official do a state final. As officials we should write a mechanics exam and a rules test like the IAABO test, one that tests how we would officiate a game.
