----------------------------------- AsianSensation Tue Apr 20, 2004 6:47 pm York University Science Olymiad ----------------------------------- Who is going? It's on May 14th. I saw the website, there is a event with programming robots, and you pit them against each other at the olympiad. I think it's using a simplified version of Java. If you see me there, I'll probably be in crowding the Biology corner. ----------------------------------- Tony Tue Apr 20, 2004 6:51 pm ----------------------------------- York univercity? That's really close :) Tell me some more about it and I might come out and take a look at whats going on there. My school is too cheap to sponsour me to participate in anything cheap bastards are charging me $80 USD to write CS AP exam :roll: ----------------------------------- AsianSensation Tue Apr 20, 2004 6:58 pm ----------------------------------- http://www.science.yorku.ca/olympics/ explains it better then I could. We are going to this one because the Great Lakes one got cancelled. The students were pissed that we couldn't skip a day of school :lol: . So lucky we got invited to go to this one. ----------------------------------- Tony Tue Apr 20, 2004 7:12 pm ----------------------------------- lol, nice :) who's comming from Massey? ----------------------------------- AsianSensation Tue Apr 20, 2004 7:17 pm ----------------------------------- Well, we are bringing 2 teams of 6 each, you probably only know me, that's about it. Bugz didn't tryout for this one. Oh, and Crono is coming, that's about all. I think more people would have tried out if we knew that there was a programming event. ----------------------------------- Tony Tue Apr 20, 2004 7:23 pm ----------------------------------- :? where are you getting other 10 people from :lol: ----------------------------------- Cervantes Tue Apr 20, 2004 7:36 pm ----------------------------------- uuh tony.. I think its paying for AP exams is manditory. My school doesn't pay for it either :? Anywho, there was a "Science Olympics" at York University in February. I think that was only for GR 10 and GR 11 though. My team did so horrible :( ----------------------------------- bugzpodder Tue Apr 20, 2004 7:37 pm ----------------------------------- last time i tried out for a team, they cut me from it (after they told me i made the team)... made me waste time... so there is no way i am trying out in another science olympiad team!!! [---I take it back---] ----------------------------------- Tony Tue Apr 20, 2004 7:46 pm ----------------------------------- uuh tony.. I think its paying for AP exams is manditory. My school doesn't pay for it either :? 'cept that we've got like 3 kids writing AP exams this year. I'm the only one in CS and two others in Bio... and if you recall, its a private school... they're loaded with piles of money. And they wouldn't pay for my exam :roll: bastards ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sun Apr 25, 2004 1:27 pm ----------------------------------- oh. didn't know it was a private school bugz -> science rulz, go wipe that spit off with your face. :lol: ----------------------------------- bugzpodder Sun Apr 25, 2004 3:03 pm ----------------------------------- [---I take it back---] ----------------------------------- bugzpodder Thu Apr 29, 2004 1:27 pm ----------------------------------- i take whatever i said back... apparently they asked me to participate in it (without tryouts) I did it because they kicked John out in order to make a spot for me (he wasnt very happy :lol: ) ----------------------------------- AsianSensation Fri May 14, 2004 10:28 pm ----------------------------------- First. :king:
