The rules, for the newbies.

And the picture:

As always, the deadline is nominally Sunday at midnight Eastern. I plan to be at SCRAP this weekend; if you’re there too, feel free to submit your entry in person.

Go!

The TEAM VERSION of the field doesn’t include the airship electronics assembly. To simulate a realistic event teardown experience, have your volunteers sit inside the airship until they hear something crack, then practice detaching and reattaching Allen Bradley connectors.

NPOE

Source: disassembled ~12 airship electronic assemblies, something did indeed crack, team version did not prepare me.

[EricH]

It seems that one of the mentors found the safest place in the shop to take a nap.

This is a new twist on painting ones self into a corner,

[GaryVoshol]

Coach: “Are you sure you read the rules correctly? This is where the Human Player goes?”

Wife in background thinks, “Let’s see how long I can keep him there.”

[wgorgen]

The GDCs original design for the cargo sorting facility included a Human Player “baggage handler” in the hub that would carefully sort the cargo. But during the final game testing phase, the human player went on strike due to poor working conditions associated with the high quotas, was replaced by automation and was relegated to just throwing the cargo packages across the room. This, of course, scuttled the potential sponsorship from Amazon.

The Mentor Prison 1.0: Lessons Learned

1. Mentors will escape quickly if nap space is not provided
2. Mentors will escape quickly if coffee is not provided
   c) FIRST games often unintentionally create surprisingly good mentor prisons

[cgmv123]

What happens if my eyes disagree on the CARGO count?

[LuiTheFly]

“Man this is comfy! All we need to do now is line it with a tarp, fill her with water, and someone bring me a beer”

[Osby]

Mentor grumbling, “I thought dunk tanks were supposed to have water!”

[GeeTwo]

Why won’t this CAR GO?

[bardd]

Students have dinosaur vision. If I don’t move they won’t ask me to do stuff.

[Billfred]
