Nerds in a box! Collect all 17! Order yours today!

Matt Krass 03-07-2005 17:53

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
That's low Dave, locking the entire team in the crate just so you can have all the KKs!

Jay H 237 03-07-2005 18:58

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
Due to the lack of fundraising initiative, 116 was forced to travel by way of FedEx instead of United Airlines.

Hey! What happened to the 2,000 boxes of Krispy Kremes I ordered??

Building a crate for robot: $500
Building a working robot: $3,000
Locking your students in a crate so that you can get some real work done: Priceless!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
At least 1 dozen clowns in a circus VW has nothing on 17 clowning nerds in a crate, particularly if one of them is Heidi and they are all on Dave's team!

Pat McCarthy 03-07-2005 23:13

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
According to the 2006 game manual, the pit crew must be shipped in a crate at the same time as the crate that contains the usual robot and batteries.

spears312 03-07-2005 23:35

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
Thats wierd... Why does team 116 have two boxes sitting in their pit area?

Daniel Brim 04-07-2005 05:53

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
116's crate might work better if they add a back...

Al Skierkiewicz 04-07-2005 08:27

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
Team 116 demonstrates a new idea on keeping students involved. It might have worked but for one problem. Although the test failed it did spawn team rule #101, use of personal hygene products is encouraged for all team building events.

Rich Wong 04-07-2005 11:34

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
February 14, 2005 (one week before shipping deadline):

Team 116 Captain “Dave, Dave,…. What, what are we going to do?!
It is hopeless….
More than half the team is out sick…..
The transmission is not completed, autonomous mode is unfinished and the arm is only half done.
We are never going to make the ship date.”

Dave: “Hmmm…..
I hate to do this but I have no choice.
We have to breakout the BACKUP-Team 116.
Let's uncrate them now……”

(Entry inspired by a scene from the “Match of the Wooden Soldiers" with Laurel & Hardy)

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
Dave on one of his better days (his morning medication only lets him simultaneously express four of his multiple personalities - Snoop Dogg wannabe, slack-jawed yokel, high school freshman AIM addict, and NASA engineer):

"Y'all better dig out the wax from ur ears, yo - i didn't know my 'Think outside the bizzox' speech wood be so hard for u geniouses to comprehendizzle! Fo sheezy, get out o' there and get back to work, ppl!!!!! Wait......on second thought, get back in da crate, homies! Congradulations, i'm sending y'uns on a permanent vacation to Tempel 1 cuz peep dis - i wanna bust out wit my secret clone army of Herndon students, who will pwn j00 all. OMG, like, my ultimate dream will soon be realized, as their all programmed to listen only to me. Y'all never listen to ur parents anyway, so I reckon they won't even know the difference!!! Holla! LOLOLOLOLOLOL............. ROTFLMAO............. Throw me a frickin' clone here! I'm outy, dangnubbit - I gotta change the tire on my house....TTYL!"

Man these budget cuts are starting to cut really deep!

Alex Cormier 04-07-2005 22:35

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
team 116 asks FIRST Q&A:
"Is it really that bad/illegal to ship teammates with the robot to get it finished?"

Arefin Bari 04-07-2005 22:56

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
Dave: Oh yeah... I designed something very cool and it is SOOOO simple.

::Audience waiting::

Dave: Finally I present to you our "the locked up" students. Yup, 17 of them can fit in there at once, very easy to ship it anywhere in the world. I gotta check back on chiefdelphi, there was some team who needed more team members.

:: puts a sign on the forehead::

"I donate Nerds" :p

Dave: OKAY! You can't fool me! WHERE'S THE HIDDEN DOOR?!

Dave Scheck 05-07-2005 10:41

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
After a lack of design ideas (and air), Team 116 decides to think outside of the box.

EddieMcD 06-07-2005 08:59

Dave: "I thought Boxing Day was before kickoff..."

The Herndon High School upper level math class demonstration to support their argument that 34 feet is a unit of volume rather than length didn't work; although the teacher gave them an "A" for effort, they still got an "F" for technical ability and had to repeat the class.

EricS-Team180 08-07-2005 09:05

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
...Gary finishes his post and begins thinking...
"gotta outdo Lavery...gotta outdo Lavery...gotta outdo Lavery"

he eyes the "lunch line" cans of SPAM spanning his desk...hmmm

"Would Gilligan fit? ... naahhh way too big....how about Tiff? ...hmmm....smaller but still too big...maybe some of Bruces's Lego Leaguers! ...may need a shoe horn...may need a jumbo size can ...hmmm
may need some photoshopping advice from Heidi ..."

Katie Reynolds 08-07-2005 10:08

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
Dave: *thinks* My pit-crew in a box idea is genius, I tell you - pure genius!

Dave (to crew): "Alright guys - remember to pack some food and water in that crate with you, 'cause you're going to have to wait until Thursday morning to be let out."

Disgruntled Student: "What?!"

Dave: "Hey, the only thing we can uncrate Wednesday is the robot."

Student: "Aww, this sucks!"

Dave: "Hey, I didn't write the rul- well ... on second thought, I might've had a *little* something to do with it ..."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
116 Student: " Ok so the fact still remains that we cant fit all 20 pit/flight students in the crate"
Dave: "Ok are you happy now where are my the KK's? Pay up!"
116 Student: "What if we send one of us out and have four people close the crate and now all we need to do is get Dave in here and by the time we get to Annapolis I am sure we can win back our bet!"

<NOT ENTRY> I wonder why Dave hasn't posted yet? </NOT ENTRY>

Clown College Curriculum:

Clowns In a Car 101: Practical lessons on how to execute the classic “too many clowns in too small a car” gag. Lectures will cover topics such as "What NOT To Eat The Night Before," "The Atkins Diet Has Nothing On Us!," "Pack ‘Em In ‘Till They Scream Like 4-Year-Old Girls," "Stuffing Bozo Into A Tear in the Time-Space Continuum," "Teaching Chuckles To Breathe IN." Lab sessions will feature practice sessions fitting the entire class into successively smaller spaces, starting with large bathrooms, working through packing crates, phone booths, to Cooper Minis. The practical final exam will be an attempt to fit the entire class into a shoe box.

Student: "Wow, when Dave said something about a Human Transporter experiment, I thought he was talking about a Segway, not the 'Beam Me Up, Scotty' kind..."

Ashley Christine 09-07-2005 11:23

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
[ashley is sad because her computer is icky and doesnt support most media files nowa days]

but, reading everyone else's I will make a creative entry...


Sign on the outside of box: Please do not pet the animals.

Ian Curtis 09-07-2005 11:39

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #52
 
[Although its obivious I'll put it here anyways... NOT AN ENTRY]
Ashley if you want to change your entry it is 17 people (one of which is Heidi Foster) crammed in a robot crate. [/not entry]

When it became apparent that Billfred was going to A. assign Heidi -infinity points, or allow Travis to win the final caption contest just to get on Heidi's nerves, MissInformation decided to do something about it. She gathered 16 other members of 116 and they all climbed into the former robot crate which was then boarded up and shipped to Billfreezyfosheezzywithaglassoflemoneezy Industries. Heidi thought that they would arrive inconspiciously, and Billfred would carry the box into his house, at which point they would sneak out and change the caption contest scores and irreversibly alter Billfred's mind. They're still in the box waiting outside his house becuase they forgot to take into account the fact that Billfred is in Maine.

[WOOT! 500 posts!]

Goodness gracious, what is this? Make Billfred Work Day?

In what may be the hardest caption contest to judge yet, first place goes to...

Some of the numbers may have shifted over--sorry!

I should probably tip my hat to a few folks at this point. All awards should be construed as the level of paper plate awards, paper plate not included. Void where prohibited and all that.

Year 1 Champion: Heidi Foster

Most Wins: Travis Hoffman (7)
