Brandon is Santa?? Ooh, Ooh, I want to tell you what I want for X-Mas!!!

Re: Misinformation warning
 

Best line in the whole movie: Miracle Max (Billy Crystal) to Inigo (Mandy Patakin) and Fezzik (Andre the Giant):

"Bye-bye boys! Have fun storming the castle!!"

There are just so many times this line can be useful!

:confused:
(thinking- why would the gamemaster post a message like this, why would he relied with such detail, and what about this movie....... and why can't Dave count the days of the month, why, why, why......)

Ooh, no, another encrypted message from Dave, I'm not even done with the snow in the yard thing message!
(U are EVIL!)

Re: Misinformation warning
 

Because Dave is full of "Spirit" and is taking advantage of the "Opportunity" to mess with your head.

Re: Misinformation warning
 

Look, it's Dave, getting ready to:

storm the castle

Do you think he's having fun?

Well, if we can assume that a tootsie pop has a circular cross section, and that the tongue would be tangental to the surface of the pop, wouldn't it follow that it would take an infinite number of licks to reach the center on all sides, since you would have to lick each point numerous times?

Sorry, Calculus is ruining my brain. *twitch* The area enclosed by a deltoid? What? NOOOOO!

Re: Misinformation warning
 

Well, to solve this problem we would have to define exactly what a "lick" is.

If a lick is an act of placing your tounge and then moving it on the pop, then I have a simple answer for you.

One lick is the answer... How is this possible you ask??

Simple, put the tootsie roll pop on/in a "spin pop" device and never take your tounge off the pop, and just push the spin pop button to rotate the tootsie roll pop. Presto.. one defined "lick" and you're to the center.

Now to take this even a step further, lets take the pop itself.. You can never really reach the "center" of a sphere if it has a stick in the middle of it!!!

So, it is truely impossible; if you don't agree with the answer that the one lick solution works that is!!!

:D

Re: Misinformation warning
 

Not to revive an old topic, but we might as well evaluate what Dave's posted in this thread to see if something he mentioned wound up somehow connecting to FIRST Frenzy.

First, the big long reasoning post...it could be argued that he was trying to drive our minds into a mind-numbing state and get us speculating--a frenzied state.

Second, the "my work here is done" post. Consider the game--once you got on the bar, you're done...well, except for those little things, such as blocking the goal or monkeying to block another robot. Consider that Dave then posted and did other little posts.

Finally, the "storming the castle" post. If we define the bar as a the inner part of a castle, then we've got a mess of a fortress this year, don't we? I mean, big huge stairs (in robot terms, at least), tremendous stakes blocking your path, the varying traction of the surfaces (I didn't even notice that until Atlanta)...it's quite the protection. Oh, and the guards, if you define the other alliance as the keepers of the castle. (Yeah, that's a stretch...they think the same of you.)

I sense the need to look into this further....(devilish grin)

Re: Misinformation warning
 

You missed the obvious connection. Look at the shape of the battlements on a castle wall. Then look at the profile of the top of the goals from this year. Notice any similarity? ;)

All of my clues are clues.

Whether they are good clues or not may be a matter of debate... :)

Re: Misinformation warning
 

So Billfred was actually right with those connections? They seemed a bit of a stretch. Please give us some more interesting ones like that this year.

Re: Misinformation warning
 

Dave --
If I had your kind of credibility, and the whole FIRST community hanging on my every word, I would have sooooooooo much fun. I'd never be bored. :D

Admiringly,
John



Edit:
Sean, you find yourself in this very same position simply by virtue of your relation to Dave.
Enjoy, young one. God Speed in your quest. *salutes*

Re: Misinformation warning
 

I keep hearing the theme from "The Twilight Zone".

This thread is either a new upcoming TZ episode, or a bad skit from Saturday Night Live.

Re: Misinformation warning
 

Definitely a bad SNL skit.

Cuz some of it kinda makes sense.
