EULER ACHIEVEMENT: My partner and I forgot to bring a calculator for DD at invitationals so we had to do the calculations by hand. We got all of the calculations right, though. BEAT THE CURVE: My partner and I got 2nd in regionals for WIDI, which I was surprised about since WIDI is my worst event and I felt I did awful on the writing part. It’s kind of funny though because during invitationals and states I actually felt confident that I did well but then we got close to last so ye 8-)

EULER ACHIEVEMENT: The DD test at one of the invitationals was half relative risk/odds ratio and my partner and I didn't have a calculator. We converted all the fractions into decimals and then started dividing, when halfway through, we realized that we could just divide fractions and convert the quotient into a decimal to save time. Not one of our brightest moments, but at least we got 1st.

This should include things like forgetting to connect a battery, or forgetting to turn your Mission Possible device on, and not realizing until after you failed the run,

...oof
F ACHIEVEMENT= "Oof Achievement" :lol:
In one of the competitions, my coach put me in WIDI, an event I'd never done before. About 20 minutes before our scheduled time to compete, I read the rules for the first time, and I didn't even finish. During the competition, when I was writing, I forgot that we could use numbers, so I didn't number the steps. I also forgot that there were such things as "flat toothpicks" so I wrote "very small popsicle stick" instead :lol:
^^triple oof right there...
