[Andy]

whose going?? massey went for the first time last year and won it, hopefully we'll do the same this year. post your school and events that you are participating in

me: massey, robocode, csi, yorklander, squabble

[brenn]

I went with my school the year that one of the waterbottle rockets blew up and one of the pieces cut right across a volunteer girl's cheek. I said, "At least it didn't cut her eye." and everybody got angry at me for that comment o_O;

That was the group right before mine--and one of my team members stuck her face in front of the rocket thing while somebody was pumping it. -__-

Our school went and did the robot one. We cheated however. We would have won but they disqualified us. I dunno if we qare allowed back...

[Andy]

how exactly did u cheat

[MyPistolsIn3D]

The people who were running the competetion left the source code open and so, we changed it a little bit. In our favor of course.

??? what do you mean?? what exactly did you change?

[rizzix]

i'm guessing changing initialsed varaible values... constant values.. deleting assignment statements,, or incremetnation statements.. or simply messing them up?. simple stuff that no one will know, except the creator.

[bugzpodder]

like what exactly did you do? change the source code to what? another robot someone else made? cuz there is nothing in YorkRobot... and wtf is that heating thing that you must call every turn otherwise you'll self-destruct? so pointless and so stupid... the prof at York is an idiot
