Re: Compute This B
You're right. Compute This seemed too much like a webquest. I'd rather have something that will be much easier to prepare for. It's hard to utilize one's knowledge of Excel if one can't find the data needed. What I want is to be given a topic and some useful resources so from there we have to "...

Re: Compute This B
"Missing" and "unfound" data really kills all that time spent practicing with Word and Excel though.

Re: Storm the Castle B
I was actually asking if i could add weight to the part of the arm with the cw on it as long as it doesn't fire. I also wanted to know why or why not it was allowed. By the way 25 plus meters is amazing and i cant imagine getting that much without having to build a new trebuchet. Yea, you can add w...

Re: Awesome Aquifers B
Yeah, I'd try and get that clarified before the event starts. Just know how you present both or either or.

Re: Compute This B
Right now, I'd say Compute This is the least interesting event, especially searching for data. My partner and I spent all the time searching for data and didn't think of faking it to make the graph at that time. Please, whatever you do, I hope that it isn't as tedious as searching for data. I'd like...

Re: Bottle Rocket B
Aren't climbing trees fun? At the State competition my partner and I used 60% water for one rocket and I don't think all of the water come out. That rocket fell down on the proctor's head; I'm think some people from NY might remember that.

Re: Awesome Aquifers B
Hmm... I don't know how to do that stuff. For me I'd stick with whatever is the most clear, simple and concise but then again the judges might be more impressed by a more advanced method with iodine and more elaborate methods. I don't know, would the judges rather see something simple yet thorough o...
