Dear WildStang

Dear WildStang,

you left your flag at the Boilermaker Regional. We have it. You will get your flag back at Nationals, but accurate CAD files of your best swervedrive would be appreciated.

Thank you,

WBI
Team 461

P.S.: More pictures will follow.

Moderators: Please lock/delete this thread.

Thank you.

To Wildstang (if you read this): Flo already emailed you guys about this, so just reply and figure out a way for us to get it back if you want it
To everyone else: I would like to make it clear that Will's statements do not reflect the position of team 461.

So... the rest of you don't have a sense of humor? lol

I recall some other times of holding team items hostage in a Capture The Flag type game as a prank.

It's all good & as long as the original team (111 in this case) gets their item back, I'm sure everyone will be cool with it.

Re: Dear WildStang

We're still on our bus heading home, so we've locked the student responsible for the flag in the bathroom as punishment.

Thanks for grabbing it for us though!

That's awefully nicely worded "demand" for a serious "hostage situation".

I can neither confirm nor deny that I may have performed weapons grade methane tests in said bathroom prior to locking said student in with any potential noxious fumes...

I believe that team 291 (CIA) might be investigating this supposed WoMD testing

Then you might have a 1902 (oink oink BOOM) which could result in a 418 (Purple Haze).

Unless of course, it was just team 68 (Truck Town Thunder). In that case we might not need team 365 (The Miracle Workerz) to save us.

Wow, just look where this thread has gone...

You could almost make something like this into a story game by involving team names for various uses like those above.
