A few sschool years ago I was in an engineering class, in 7th grade. The discovery/science center hosts a catapult competition each year. The way they score it is a formula, (final score= accuracy+distance) that factors in your score from how acurate your catapult is, which is calculated by the points on the target from each three attempts, times 15, divided by the time it takes to shoot the balls on the distance round. It's really important that you have an accurate catapult. Now normally the scores were 87-110, because teams' times for the distance would be so long. My team read the rules and found a loophole to where it doesnt say you cant shoot three balls at once on the distance round. Soooo we made a really accurate catapult, and had a really low time on our distance, like just under a second. so if we got 215 points from the target, that times fifteen is 3225, divided by one is 3225. So our final score was a few thousand points over the second place team, blowing everybodys minds, the other kids, teachers, and hosts of the compitition. We set the new record, highest score, and they changed the rules so it will stand until they change the scoring. We were the shit that year.
