Frankly, I've only seen one or two things on Delphi that someone in our own team didn't suggest during brainstorming. The details of execution are a lot more interesting than your "secret" idea to win the game, and telling all of us on Delphi isn't going to hurt your chances of winning the tournament. Honest.

If you will all excuse me this primitive example, it's a lot like a 4-year-old girl who has lost her bikini top. She might be horrified, but there's really nothing to hide. (Should anyone find this analogy offensive, I'll remove it.)

Thanks for letting me borrow the soapbox for a minute.
thanks for the back up, i will post all the info i want/can after the competition this weekend. sorry if any of my team has made this a bad experience for you and your team. the thing is that it came from 2 students and multiple mentors not my part or i would have posted a video and many more pictures.
