I know it'll be going into it's third year, which breaks the general guidelines of two-year rotations that chalker has mentioned, but I've heard that the Executive Committee heavily favors it, so I'm not sure what to think.
It's staying in.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what the bottle rockets challenge for next year might be? Parachutes maybe?

I really hope so. Three years of the same building event isn't something we ever see. Hopefully there will be something big to spice it up.

There actually is a trial event that matches your description!

I always thought this would be an amazing event, but I don't think it's very far in the trial event process :(

I had the random idea that maybe they could include bonuses, like with Wright Stuff, so the winning rockets don't all look the same.
Bottle Rockets: 5th
Ecology: 9th
Hovercraft: 14th
Scrambler: 29th (with a failed run too  ;))
Mousetrap Vehicle
Hovercraft
Ecology
Experimental Design (or other inquiry :P)

...Yes, my profile picture is G2 apEX at the PGL Major Qual.  :lol:
