 Now I'm having visions of thousands of balloons and a grumpy old man. Oh, and a talking dog. No talking dogs on the field. Grumpy old men are ok - sometimes. - JaneYoung [more] |

Whats the delay for???
Posted by Rob Vetere, Engineer on team #177, Bobcat Robotics, from South Windsor High School and UTC-International Fuel Cells.
Posted on 4/29/99 10:48 AM MST This happens every year. Why does it take FIRST so long to determine the final results? The first two places are obvious, and even though the 3 and 4 tie, it should be fairly easy to calculate the tie-breaker, i would think.... Are there politcal considerations in the standings as well as many other aspects of the contest? Or are they just really slow to post the results? You would think that with something like the National Results, they would make more of an effort.... |
