Re: waterloo announcing game words!

What's this all about?
I think I know what it may be about, but just want to be sure.

Someone care to enlighten me?

Re: waterloo announcing game words!

I figured that's what it was.

Ok, I got a word that I just saw for the first time, and learned the meaning of, and it's Canadian!

The word is.... Kerfuffle.

Shouldn't be that hard to find a use for in a competition setting.

Re: waterloo announcing game words!

Keep them coming. Please only words or word pairs; no sentences as I am fitting about 12 to 16 words in per match and sentences throw the groove off. One thing I am doing in match one tomorrow is a JVN suggestion: I am doing a "meow" match. For those of you who have seen Super Troopers, you will fall out of your seat laughing. I will send out the list that I have approved from the suggestions here. I will fit them in as I can and will get to all of them that I have on the list.

Also, send them in tomorrow morning on the webcast and I will get any in that is not a repeat.

Re: waterloo announcing game words!

I'm willing to keep doing themes for the match intros as well. Make a separate list for these. Some of the ones we did today include NBA teams and past FIRST games.
