Go to Post One wondered why they couldn't practice in the gym that day - because the robotics team had it reserved was the answer. "Oh, we have a robotics team?" Sigh. This is a team with a low number. They've been around for at least a dozen years. There's still a lot more culture-changing to do. - GaryVoshol [more]

Re: pic: Mythbusters at Gencon

No Jamie or Adam? Then it's not Mythbusters

Personally, if either leaves the show, I'm going to stop watching, this guys just don't have the same thing those two do.

I would have to agree without Adam or Jamie I just could not watch the show. But still it would of been nice to be there to meet the rest of the Mythbusters crew

Re: pic: Mythbusters at Gencon

Ya know...I have to disagree! Though I'd be severely bummed if either Adam or Jamie left the show, I really warmed up to the rest of the Mythbusters over this past season. Maybe its because at least 2/5's of all Mythbusters are robot geeks like the rest of us, or maybe its because I have the usual NERD crush on Kari...either way, I am an addict!

I think that Mythbusters should do a show on FIRST. We can start with them busting the myth that the Midwest actually knows how to play defense!




Yes...I had to get that last jab in for the 2006 season. That one was for you Wildstang!

I agree with the first part of it...but the Midwest defense part, look at 45 videos...we played defense most of the year. Including GTR . Sure, the plan was to play offense, but ya know you can throw the plan out the window once your shooter doesn't work. Now it does though.

Silly Technokats...how many times do I have to tell you...you aren't a Midwest team! You are a New England team...trapped in a Midwest state.

Stop trying to claim all the good teams for NERD!

We know you just want Andy Baker among the NERD ranks.

Hey we did manage to convert one Miss Amanda Morrison thank you...

But anyways to avoid a thread hijack, I would just like to say that I too must agree with Andy and say that the rest of the cast does do a great job, and how quickly you all forget Scottie, granted she may not be a current mythbuster but there have been at least seven, and without the rest of the cast most of what Jamie and Adam do just wouldn't happen. I vote best mythbuster ever to Buster!

Gen Con is the worlds largest gaming event and lasts for four days. This year 45, 1501, 393, 829, and 1272 went, after Derek contacted Indiana FIRST wanting some teams to do a demostration. Next year we hope that the demo thing will be more organized and that more teams will come or at least more people.
