Apologies for the double-invocation of the BIWWTM Rule--I've spent entirely too long (something around 26 hours over the weekend, plus three more hours after work Monday) on a project. It's really cool, this robotics competition some guys from New Hampshire put on. I'll tell you about it another time, though.
First place goes to:

Ref 2: "Well, not in so many words. But think about it. 116 twice is 232. Subtract that from 293 and you get 61. Team 61 is the Shifters. So if this robot has a shifting transmission, there's gotta be a clue here somewhere."
Ref 1: "I'll give you your clue. Just decide whether the robot is touching or not and let's get on with it."

"Nah, too much trouble. We'll just eyeball it and get another piece of paper."
"Are you sure? They told me that they had a very limited supply, unlike those darn bins."
"Oh, right. Hey, let's get a fragment from the next bin that breaks beyond repair. It'll be faster than either opening up the ramp or getting another piece of paper."
