Re: 6621 BIG Announcement!!

Here's some facts on ExcuseBoy and his statements.

1) According to approximations, there are about 27 high-school aged people in Moose Creek, Alaska (granted, team members could in theory also come from the nearby Fairbanks).

2) A search for "Piztons Inc.", "Piztons Inc Moose Creek", "Piztons Inc Fairbanks", and even "Piztons Lard" returns nothing. I seriously doubt it exists.

3) They already have a team number in late-July. This is worsened by the fact that it is a very late 2017 rookie number, and as 2016 early rookies, we didn't get our number until at least late-Setember IIRC (granted, 6621 could be a preliminary number).

4) The motto of "transparency is a sign of BAD LARD" is kind of a very specific and not very good company motto.

5) The contract that ExcuseBoy posted is not very well written, and doesn't actually provide very much information contract-wise. The entire first third isn't even a sentence (although that could be due to him censoring certain parts of the contract).

6) Looking around on Google maps for any largeish buildings that could be "Piztons Inc." didn't turn up anything.

There's the facts, you decide.
