OPEN FEEDBACK (24)

Bugs

• Op82 Tampa min_donation set to 8.20 dollars but should be 820 dollars
• Op82 Tampa party description outdated (says 2-Day, actually 1-Day; says men/women divisions, actually 4)
• Op82 Tampa: 30 teams all variant=standard but should be split into 4 divisions
• Op82 Tampa challenge has 4 generic questions, deck specifies 10 named gauntlet stations
• Op82 Tampa: Open division has 0 teams in prod (deck says 4 divisions)
• Auth bypass: generic /create/:type and /delete/:type/:id skip role checks for sponsor_placement
• deleteSponsor cascade is non-atomic — partial failure can orphan placements
