Yes, Denman, even the researchers call them "bucky balls". (Who would want to keep saying the term "buckminsterfullerene" every other sentence?)

Thanks for the name Bill!
I just had another brain flash! Essentially, This years game was a giant game of tick tac toe. What is another simple game that could be done on a bigger scale? first thing i thought of was connect four.

either that or a water game

Mrs. Lamotte, our main mentor, and my math teacher, during first hour made a comment about how she wished we could go back to balls again
