HELP!!! Our school district blocked all video, and our school did not give us satellite.

Can someone be sure to post the decrypt code here so we can at least get the manual?

Thanks!

Re: Kickoff 2009 Discussion
 

I'll post the code when it goes up.

Clearly, the goal is to have a standing army of people trained in disciplines that will allow them to counteract the inevitable robot uprising. Who better to stop the machines than those who designed them?

wow... regolith? our prediction was right about the slick floors.... moonrocks==moonfish...

Re: Kickoff 2009 Discussion
 

low traction, trailers, essentially the game is throwing balls into robots' trailers.

should be interesting.

Re: Kickoff 2009 Discussion
 

What a game! I certainly did not expect anything like this. Can't wait to start designing for this amazing challenge!

Does anyone know what the actual polymer is? A cursory search of regolith didn't bring any polymer up.
