Getting all the sleep I'll need for a few months, already changed my availability at work last month for January 5th - March 22nd, still preparing the site, planning our first fundraiser soon.

It's the most, wonderful time, of the year!!! :D

I have one month to:
-sleep a lot
-eat food that doesn't smeel grease
-say "good morning" to my parents everyday
-keep caffeine out of my blood.

just kidding.

Hrm... This thread hasn't been hit with Dave's usual red herring yet!

We usually spend the time doing a little in house competition, to teach the newbies basic problem solving and building ability, as well as training the subteams.

Re: One month to Kick-off
 

30 days isn't enough time. The animation isn't going to be ready, and we haven't been able to stock up enough fish. I need to call Dean and Woodie tomorrow and ask if we can push things back two or three weeks. Do you guys mind if we postpone kick-off to around January 26 or so? We can still keep the ship date on February 20, if that isn't a problem.

I try not to think about it because it's a CHristmas Eve like situation. I'll get over excited and time will slow down to a crawl and I'll go insane. Thus I did the Season Long FF to occupy my hyperactive little brain with that insane activity.

So where do you get yours? They are on backorder here.

Re: One month to Kick-off
 

Actually it is pretty amazing what the middle schools throw out!! A little repainting and they are practically good as new.

One man's trash is another man's treasure I guess... :rolleyes:

Re: One month to Kick-off
 

I'd like to see you try... :cool: Seriously, that would not only hurt our poor little feelings, but would drive tens of thousands of high schoolers mad, making it the largest protest in mankind!!! :eek:

Re: One month to Kick-off
 

AWESOME !! Just like real life - management sits on the paperwork until it is almost time to ship and then gives it up to the engineering staff to do in a week.

Now thats a real life challenge !!

Re: One month to Kick-off
 

OK, this must be a hint. Let's analyze.

"January 26" - Michigan is admitted to the Union as the 26th state.

"haven't been able to stock up enough fish" - Michigan is known for it's sport fishing. Brook trout, salmon, walleye, lake perch.

So obviously we will have some object with protruding "eyes" (walleye) that we will have to perch 26 feet into the air.
