Re: PICTURES, SCORES, VIDEOS!!!
I guess the real question is how far above 2500, and would it be possible for them to break the 3000 mark.TheChiScientist wrote:Pretty sure IL had towers in the 2,500+ points category...
Because my guess is that an efficiency of 2500-2600 should be enough to place this year, barring any extremely high states results that I have yet to hear about.

Re: PICTURES, SCORES, VIDEOS!!!
Well if they were popsicle sticks, then they probably got dqed. I saw someone who used really thick pieces of wood (maybe1"x1"?) pieces for legs and also to connect the legs. It fell over after like 10 seconds...MadCow2357 wrote:I agree, Lincoln Logs are DOPE!!! But aren't popsicle sticks banned since they are wood composites?waffletree wrote:Omg I love Lincoln logs.

Re: PICTURES, SCORES, VIDEOS!!!
I don’t know about Div C but I would guess somewhere in that range. As for Div B, 1st place was around 3300 and 2nd place was about 3150.randomperson123 wrote:I guess the real question is how far above 2500, and would it be possible for them to break the 3000 mark.TheChiScientist wrote:Pretty sure IL had towers in the 2,500+ points category...
