Gah, I overloaded on new-people-meeting at Nationals! So many to mention!
I hung out a lot with my twin from 1022, Jill. As she stated earlier in this thread, we met at an Arby's at the Boilermaker Regional, and ever since then, it's been nothing short of awesome. I spent so much time with her at Nationals, that some of her fellow Archer GEeks nicknamed me
Jill 2.0! They have a picture of me helping out in their pits, too.
Nil, Noam, Tomer, Dor, and Or from Team 1574 were (and still continue to be) extremely awesome to hang out with during the competition. They taught Jill and I some "useful" Hebrew words, and we all continue to stay in touch.
Gabe and I didn't get to meet Dean, though. That was our mission, and it wasn't accomplished! Oh well. Does anyone have any tips on how to meet Dean next year? Like, where would someone have a better chance of seeing him?
