I found this totally on accident; I am not responsible for the change to the FRC page.

I usually don't laugh at Wikipedia vandalism, but I'll admit that this was worth a chuckle.

We are all smart and should use our best judgement to promote FIRST and maintain its integrity. Posting or pranking FIRST on social media does not represent us in the best way. With everything going on with the "leak", its not a good feeling!

Re: Surprise Splash

And then someone changed it to a corndog theme.

Some of the IP addresses trace to Morrisville, PA, Duxbury, MA, La Palma, CA (tied to Boeing), and Kokomo, IN.

Re: Surprise Splash

This hasn't stopped. There's even a page for the game.

EDIT: I fixed the list on Wikipedia, because I'm no fun.

EDIT 2: I see that that page has been redirected to the FRC page.

Apparently by using my phone to change the page it didn't know where I was.

I was always in Chicago.
