I prefer to be laughing loudly drawing pointed stares from various sensei. There is always some hilarious joke or another that gets us a few looks. Depends whats actually going on, if i'm up soon I have my men on and that usually discourages any discussion beyond someone saying 'good luck' Any other time I am off chatting with people/meeting new people and keep my ears peeled for the kiai of people who I want to watch/videotape. Also volunteer to help if you know whats going on. 9/10 the volunteers dont understand how brackets work or how to properly record scores and hansoku, especially if they are hangers on and not people that do kendo. Now that i'm sandan I'm sure i'll get roped into shinpan duty as well.
