Thanks both of you! They didn't tell us, but my coach and I calculated it in our team room, and it was around 990-1000ish. It would have been better if it hadn't broken though, obviously.

what place did ur school get?

Did anyone notice how a lot of us thought the top 2 were set and spots 3-5 were like up for grabs while we were right
3rd-RC Murphy-262
4th-Maine-Endwell-265
5th-Wellwood-267

now thats close standings i just wish Wellwod had been on the other end of that list

ahahaha 23rd. we just go for fun, we arent exactly in it to win it. i dont think we've ever gotten higher than 15th. this was an ok year, we had a lot of events with 2 7th graders on it who were just ok. but it was so much fun.

oops 2 7th graders not exacly good
we try to win but we aren't quite good enough weve gotten 5th in 2007 , 7th in 2008 and 5th in 2009(we were so close to getting third)
also,i heard they reused the eggs for Scrambler if they didnt break know anything?
im asking cause our egg broke in a ridiculous way before launch-we put a piece of tape on and it cracked

yeah, our team is composed of 11 7th graders and 4 8th graders haha. but we manage.. and no sorry I didn't hear anything about that.. my school did not have a problem, we ended up with 3rd in Scrambler. But I think my coaches were talking to your coach about how other people were scoring and if others had egg problems. I think our team noticed some eggs in the box thing were cracked already. not totally sure on that though.
