wuts the highest score for division b that anybody has heard of so far?

[croman74]

I believe that there have been a few over 1500. I think the highest was around 1750.

[gandhiji]

oh okay thankx

[sewforlife]

on the scoreboard, science geek posted 2000. that's pretty amazing. if that's true that is the best efficiency i've heard of

[sewforlife]

but hes in div. C. that seems even more amazing, because from what i've heard div. c is much harder

Many people keep saying that Div. B scores should be higher because of diff. rules. However, the highest scores are from div. C. I think it might be because of less experience with these kind of events. That's why the Div. B scores are so low. What are your guys' opinions on the low Div. B scores?

yeah, I agree with you. I think the lack of experience is the only reason our scores are lower than div. C, even though div. C is harder.

Next year, I think that Div. B scores will probably be considerably higher. Because this is a new event this year, most div. B kids don't really know where to start. Many Div. C kids participated in this event a couple years ago, and also competed in tower and boomilever.

yeah, definitely. next year i'll still be continuing bridge, and I can make major improvements. yeah, most of the people who did bridge 2-3 years ago are in div. C now.

[croman74]

I'll definitely stay with bridge next year. It's just too good of an event to not do it. Even over the summer, I think I'll continue to build more bridges, just so that I can experiment different ways and get a head start for next year. Sure the rules might be different, but you can just modify the specs on your design and it should be fine.
