The teacher noticed, i turned around cause they were making a racket, and they got a full picture of my face. I think they thought I snitched cause when I went to the restroom about 10 minutes later, there was a blown up picture of my face with the words, SNITCH WANTED. It's almost admirable how fast they worked.

They made a whole stack of posters...
That's... concerning? Do you know why they were taking pictures? I don't think you can get a legible picture of the test from the window...

omg what this exists

the next time they ask me "do you want to add guac for a dollar" I'll be like thanks but no thank u gotta save on avocado to get some Avogadro

I'm guessing it'll literally just be a live spreadsheet (probably not even as good as the public ones made by sciolyperson1) but maybe I'll try lol
Well, this was just as uninteresting as I expected. It looked like literally every Avogadro awards presentation. There was only a live slideshow, and once they advanced the slide, I couldn't return to look at previous events' results. The only way this was better than the actual livestream was that I got to see raw scores like 10 minutes before everybody else, since I guess raw scores are displayed by default on Avogadro.

We now have empirical evidence to not spend 99 cents on Avogadro.

I agree with this. That's really not ok. Also I'm not sure the time frame makes sense, and that someone else might have done this earlier.

Also, this really doesn't sound like Troy, wow.
