If that were me, I don't know what I'd do with myself. I'd probably devote my life to inventing a time machine so I could go back in time and punch myself in the face before I messed up Einstein.
I'm sure (or at least, I hope) this person is truly remorseful for their actions. If they have seen a fraction of these responses, I'm sure they'd know that their actions deeply upset a large number of people. The last thing this person would need is to be forever known as "The person who ruined Einstein." If their identity were to become public, let's face it: No FIRSTer in the world could look at them the same way. They would be faced with eyes of raw disdain and disappointment. All respect from the FIRST community would be lost, or at least severely damaged. I, personally, don't think anyone deserves that.

If you did do that, then we wouldnt be having this conversation, which would in turn make you not go and invent a time machine. So seeing as that didnt happen, either you fail in doing so or you do invent a time machine but you get taken out by the duplicate paradox...of course if that happens, which I hope it doesnt, you in essence die the day you go back in time to stop yourself from screwing up at last year's championships.
