Question Ray: Are you going to have a phantom round 2 that count's 90 minutes towards our chronoligical age and not towards the standings? Cause if you did, that'd be cool. And by cool I mean Bush-League. It's nice to see another one of your tourny's, you truly know how to run a clean ship. I'll be there.

I'd love to come. I'm looking into a bus ticket with Greyhound but I need a place to stay, OR a few people to bunk with me in a hotel so it's cheap as shit. If anyone wants to talk about this drop me a line on AIM or send me a PM.

Oh, this has become a priority. However- one thing, and I'm not sure how (if) it will affect everyone- but it's the weekend before SAT's.

Who's in high school anymore? I thought that was just some fad. Seriously people, priorities. Lets support Ray. Brett

Dope Factor = 8pi ~ 21.13 for all those who don't know Calculus. Taking Calculus at 13 is tech (I'm 15 now though). Still can't make it, though  . --Tempe

PI isn't restricted to Calculus though...  Long live Trig. Calculus is fun until the third university course. When you get into Triple Integral stuff... it's just pointless. At least you can draw pretty curves on the computer:).

I might actually try and attend, if I'm not working. Although, I wonder if it would be possible to build a complete, powered deck from stuff borrowed from other people...

Wow, I so forgot how to do volume of a curve. Then again, it has been 4 years since I took calc. Isn't it just a double integral?  Sadly, this tourney is on the same weekend as the Stratford 100 card around Ontario. This tourney is about a hundred times better, but Stratford is closer. Ugh... why are all tourneys in the same day?

Triple, since you're going to want to do it in spherical coordinates. The transforms are like R=(sqrt) x^2+y^2+z^2 and I forget the angular transforms.

Why are so many people crying that I brought it up? If it doesn't affect you, can't you let it end there? I know it affects me, so I thought I'd remind everyone else, in case it mattered to them.

I just found it amusing because it's the week BEFORE the SATs rather than the week of the SATs so I'm having trouble seeing where the problem is.
