I care very much x-x I was so spazzed about this having just graduated from physics AP. I'd definately like to hear from one of the winners how they did it.

so even if you got it right you didnt actually get it because people cheated?

Ohhh... well if anyone wants to know how to solve it, I'm sure there are people who are willing to help you solve it, if anyone still cares XD

Example like how a physics text book gives you problems at the end to work out.

Oh, I see.. it's not that people researched themselves... just when the lazy ones posted somewhere to get someone ELSE to work it out FOR them. Those lil .... chits. Yeah. Wish they could be caught and frozen for it. Boy, THAT would discourage that sort of thing, eh?

Thanks for clearing that up, Moon - I was worried I'd have gotten myself in trouble by Googling to help me check formulae.

Example? Huh?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I guessed a random number. Obviously lost.

No. They used a site with users that would give out the answers on a webpage.

Staff caught it early. Shame on some of you.

Ah, I stand corrected, i was ruined x-x. It's sad that those people hadn't learned having already been informed that they ruined it for everyone in the past.

The last one wasn't ruined, it was limited.

I was so excited about that last one, found an example problem and substituted and everything..Having taken physics, I can atest to the fact that it wasn't my math, I swear the example was shoddy x-x. Congratulations to those who won.

Blue, the point of other trivias, before the change, was to test knowledge and/or your ability to research. We NEVER allowed the use of helpsites like Yahoo, where someone else does the work for you.

Now all the trivias have to do i nsome way with Subeta. We decided to be nice and give away free GAs, but some users insisted on, again, using helpsites; the same thing that got the trivia changed in the first place.

Google was fine because users WORKED for the answer. Helpsites were NEVER fine. Someone else did the work for you.

Yes, it's always too bad when others ruin it for everyone else! I hadn't even attempted to work it out yet; I'm not on my A-game for Math at this time of night (I'm a writer! lol) Figured I'd work it out tomorrow, Pythagorean Theorem and all.

I'm slightly confused, though - I guess it used to be okay to Google and get help figuring this stuff out, just not giving out the answers. But now it's not okay to Google for help sites on a difficult mathematical problem? Just asking, because I probably WOULD have Googled for math help sites to make sure I had the formulae right.. it's still summer, you know. I haven't been in school for 3 months and my math is a bit rusty.

sigh
I entered the answer wrong for this new one.
Accidentally put an extra letter.

What? AHD.
I WAS SO CLOSE TO ANSWERING.
Thanks anyways.
I'll get on this one. sigh

Aww .__.; At... least this one's kinda easier huh?!
