I loved Mystery Architecture, and think it's a pretty good event.

I have literally never done an inquiry event outside of Fermi in my life but please I'm begging you stop with the "inquiry bad" reposts.

Re: Scioly Memes
It's unfortunate that Bottle Rocket has such a negative connotation, since that's why the name got changed. I preferred the Indoor Bottle Rocket name as well.builderguy135 wrote:better than mystery architecture so im not complaining lolName wrote:I like inquires, having done two this year, but really?

I legitimately did not know Indoor Bottle Rocket and Ping Pong Parachute were the same event until yesterday (it was always called PPP in NC).Unome wrote: It's unfortunate that Bottle Rocket has such a negative connotation, since that's why the name got changed.

Re: Scioly Memes
If I am a venue operator with no knowledge of Science Olympiad events, I am more likely to allow the tournament to use my space for Ping Pong Parachute than Indoor Bottle Rocket.builderguy135 wrote:i blame north carolina >:(venules wrote:I legitimately did not know Indoor Bottle Rocket and Ping Pong Parachute were the same event until yesterday (it was always called PPP in NC).Unome wrote: It's unfortunate that Bottle Rocket has such a negative connotation, since that's why the name got changed.
