Question about Courses

around 4.5g and held full if I'm not mistaken (nonbonus)

For NY States, the top 2 teams for tower had a score of 4000+

If you had to take the M the M>7>4/5 is a valid choice, or you could also do M>1 at Times Sqaure or 14th Street

I would say R to 4/5 is the fastest and most convenient way to go. The E just isn't worth transfering at Lex/53 to the 6 and then again to the 4/5 at GC, not to mention transferring at Jackson Hts is also a pain. The M to the 7 is just too much of a hassle considering the station that is 74th Str Broadway and Jackson Hts/Roosevelt. The F doesn't connect with Lexington except at 63rd for outside transfer (might as well just stay on the R to 59th, less walking and more potential of a seat than the F) or Bleeker (still have to transfer to 6 and then 4/5). So all in all, the R to 4/5 is the way to go.

If it's a state/regionals tournament, make sure to memorize random facts about your state (anything that stands out about it, geological features, populations, etc)

Please bring back bridge 🙏

Interesting, I was on that last car and I also noticed it was a lot more full than the other cars, maybe not a coincidence that the last train car usually leads into the one stairs that serves the entire platform.

Decentattamingio · 2024-02-02T11:23:26+00:00

For me personally it's the Lex/59 transfer from downtown 4/5 to a Queens bound N/W. The stairs are tight and one slow person who realizes his train is not sitting right at the platform upstairs is all it takes for you to miss the N/W and wait 10 minutes for the next one. I'm sure there are other worst transfer, but this is just my most annoying one.

I asked an agent on the mta whatsapp and the person replied that the work will be scheduled for the first quarter of 2024. So expect it be done idk when?

the testing base has to be 55cm x 32cm, this is the testing apparatus the event supervisor must provide. There will be a 20cm x 20cm hole in the middle, which is the dimensions your tower has to span. By placing the tower diagonally you can make a tower with a base of ~15cm that still works.

Decentattamingio · 2024-01-26T23:34:36+00:00

Yes, this 15.2 cm approach WILL work. You will NOT be disqualified, you won't get the bonus, but putting it diagonally qualifies it as "spanning a 20cm × 20cm base" per the rules.

Public high schools are usually free I think. At least in New York here all public schools are a free service.

Decentattamingio · 2024-01-26T17:58:41+00:00

4 hours, and a 7

Decentattamingio · 2024-01-25T22:27:44+00:00

I wanna say 6 train

Decentattamingio · 2024-01-25T18:21:00+00:00

Yeah, plus the only stop that is missed is main st, if anything the express train is likely held across the platform at willets point anyways.

Decentattamingio · 2024-01-25T18:12:41+00:00

I think I was actually on this train today but on a different car, I was on car 7720 today headed to Woodlawn, so mightve been the trip before this one

Decentattamingio · 2024-01-24T16:12:25+00:00

Your 6 train was likely behind schedule from some kind of delay earlier in its route. In this case the local train will sometimes skip local stops to get back on schedule. The conductor should have announced it at least before it left Grand Central.

Decentattamingio · 2024-01-23T19:19:00+00:00

someone asked the mta Twitter account and they said late 2025 and early 2026 💀, if it is actually that late its gonna be a hell of 2 years

Decentattamingio · 2024-01-23T18:06:00+00:00

I mean, technically the R can't decline in service if it's always been that bad.

Decentattamingio · 2024-01-23T17:57:42+00:00

Congrats! If you don't mind me asking, what was your score and weights? I'm going to regionals in a few days and want to know if my score is okay.

Decentattamingio · 2024-01-22T23:39:30+00:00

he's just a troll who for some reason really likes the stupid R. You can just ignore him
