Re: NERDS at Battlecry...
 

Verrrry clever Mr. Howland...

Doesn't really tell ya much other than the site is a work in progress...especially considering everyone already knows the NERD logo.

Of course...we do realize you guys are very smart and computer savy, if you will. We are very much prepared for the onslaught of people trying to figure out the secret before its release...soooo with that said, if you can figure it out, and find it...more power to ya...we wont stop ya. Just be prepared for hurdles ;) (Of course, unless you are very versed in the history of FIRST and those involved with the NERD project...you probably have about 0 chance of finding it.)

We do find it quite interesting, however, that everyone is so focused on what the acronym for NERD(S) means and no one is really focusing on what a NERD truely is. Especially considering all of the blatent clues that I have thrown out on here and in person. (My FIRST Jeopardy people had so many cookies thrown to them that they never picked up on its rediculous!)

With that...happy hunting my fellow NERD(S)!

NERD "FIRST united on a whole new level"

...We will be heard

Re: NERDS at Battlecry...
 

I think i have cracked it. NERD is a group for uniting the country in design and building. National Educational Robot designers, they will unite FIRST,VEX and BEST.

Re: NERDS at Battlecry...
 

i think nerd will be a new outlook on robotics... FIRST, FLL, VEX, BB, and Best... a new CD to an extent... but just that much darn better... its the only thing to think about when he says united...

or possibly a gateway for teams to help one another or something to that extent... ok im giving up now :p

What does all that have to do with all this?

Did you think it was really cool when it happened?
