I met nejanimb, sciolykid101, computernerd, and made several new friends on different teams. Quite fun!

Haha, I doubt I found anyone and if I did I didn't realize it. Did anyone else laugh when the cops started making people leave because there were too many people? I did...it was kind of a small room for 120 teams...

I think the problem was all those tables. Only a few teams actually used them, and the rest became considerable roadblocks when people were trying to move around. It was a pretty huge fire hazard.

I only found a couple of fun t-shirts at the swap this year... what do others think about the swap?

Yeah, you'd sort of think that they would have thought of that beforehand... I mean, 120 teams x 15 people per team was probably already more people than could legally be in that room, plus there are coaches, parents, alternates, etc.

For those that were there, i was the one who got 3rd in remote, 5th in ecology, and 5th in fossils.
If you guys got medals, whatd you get? Maybe I'll recognize you that way.

Ok, then I met you. I was talking about that Harriton would win Nationals at the dinner.

That was you?
Cool. Nice to meet you.

This was my first time at Nats. It was pretty fun. The swap meet was very crazy...

I think I met you (Aia), too. I was with nejanimb watching EV... I'm on his team.

Ohh, it was in a ROOM? I didn't get to go, btw.
Somehow, I always pictured it outside, with a bunch of umbrellas for shade, and HUUUUUUUGE crowds of people knocking the umbrellas over o-o;
I really wanted to go to Nats, solely because of the swap meet, because I'm not on the team xD

Who was handing out the pins with the M/U-tant Cow Pi? They look cool ._.
If somebody from that team reads this, then BRING THEM AGAIN NEXT YEAR >:U
Please. :3

thats sort of how i pictured it too

Me too, but then I saw DS's picture from the meet, and I saw it was in a room. It seemed to be very big though, so that helps!

Our team didn't even get inside the main room. We were all outside in the lobby sitting on the floor.
