Re: Picture This B
Just so y'all know...
The nationals set was tough but not too hard. My partners and I got 7th( ) with 22 words in 3:54.
We shouldn't have passed on one of the words, (subduction) but we did and I think that it cost us a medal. /:

2nd place - 24 words in 2:40. Spent over 30 seconds on one super easy word (amphibian) before passing it T_T.scienceswimmer4 wrote:Just so y'all know...

Personally felt as if nationals was extremely easy in terms of word difficulty - teams preparing for this event should focus on speed rather than getting super hard words right (but maybe next year the words will get a lot harder)
scienceswimmer4, nice job to you and your team for getting 7th

I completely agree with you, Adi1008, we passed a really stupid word -.-, but the first word was also one we passed and a little unexpected imo.
It's been scientifically proven that people who have more birthdays live longer...

Re: Picture This B
My team sucked so bad, we got 48th.... Somehow we only got 9 words and skipped easy ones such as fossil, and element.

Re: Picture This B
Congratulations to everyone, you all did amazingly! My partners and I were just curious as to what some of the hardest words/words that stuck out to you guys were? But really, some of the scores you guys got were very impressive.
Regionals- 1st- 44
States- 3rd- 168
Nationals- lol no

Re: Picture This B
None of the words were really that hard, and that's why all the times and scores seem amazing. I don't really even remember any of the words except for amphibian, but you can buy the national test CD when it comes out later this year and take a look at the wordscpweber wrote:Congratulations to everyone, you all did amazingly!

Re: Picture This B
Thank you! 7th is great but it's a little bit hard to be happy about it when it's your last year in Div. B... We can't redeem ourselves.2nd place - 24 words in 2:40. Spent over 30 seconds on one super easy word (amphibian) before passing it T_T.

And I agree. The words were fairly simple. We should have definitely focused on speed.
