If you go to a list of Bob the builder episodes on wikipedia and search the page for "half" the only time it appears is in an episode about cows, I couldnt find any reference to three quarters though or the numbers 3 and 4

Episode about cows could refer to madcow2357, which would also explain “bob” for building events

The clue says construct 3/4 of a 1/2. Does anyone who does building events recognize this as a part of an event in particular? If it is MadCow, could it be referring to Boomilever?

I protect the other half of TheChiScientist because he is an officer who does a build event.

I have no regrets.

That was pretty quick... now we just have to wait two more days.
Just so we have all our bases covered, I guess I'll protect half of bobthebuilderman, due to the loose correlation in "Bob" and "construct", and due to the fact that he is a builder.

Can I request that we delete 2020 from our memories and do it over again?

"quickly thinking" is actually grammatically correct. It's just normally put in the other order.
I can't think of anything else to put here, so I just wrote this...
