Tip for next time you decide to be annoying: don't put your team number in. No matter that you think, having that team number and posting things like this reflects badly onto your team.

Also, if seeing people struggle makes you happy, you probably shouldn't have posted this here, as there was no struggling involved. Every single post was us calling you out on a bad fake attempt.

Go find something better to do with your time, please. Like sleep. In about 12 hours (including Dean Kamen's complimentary naptime), the sheets will be pulled off of the game field.

Get rested now while you can.

While every one is ticked at you, I must give you props. While you could have done better forging it, you dropped water into the clue feeding frenzy around here. While not GP, it is flat out funny. You had a few of them going! Bravo my friend, ..... never do it again.

It's the night before kick-off, and seeing that we all will prolly be facing a whole day of brainstorming followed by ~6 weeks of intense work: this joke was certainly well appreciated... at least by me.

Well done!

ps: don't do it again for another x years. 'x' can be any number... choose wisely.

I think he's had enough, folks. We should probably let the mods close this down, and stop giving attention to him.

Laughs go in the Rumor Mill where this now is. Official FIRST communications go in the Blasts Archive. Would it be funny if someone posted a fake Blast that told teams ship date had been pushed back two days? Honestly, blatantly misusing forums should be bannable, but there are nicer people than I in charge here.

Re: FRC Game Hint #4?

I'm seeing a trend, all the old mentors are saying how horrible this is, and it doesn't follow GP, blah blah.

All my fellow GP students think its a good laugh.. Is there a student only section? parents these days, the internet, technology.. oh wrong generation sorry.
