Junkyard Challenge(B)

[Liv]

I have just be informed that this event is now in Division B for this year, yeah?

There is no topic for this so I decided to make one.


Discuss.

Kinda hard to do that before that are rules, particularly since DH just told us JYC would change a lot

Ik the rules havent been realeased yet, but wuld u suggest this event for someone who's not that great at building, but is good with ideas?

I did JYC C this year, along with trajectory and EV. I can say that both trajectory and EV looked good and worked well. Junkyard did not look that good. It was not that well built, and it looked like, well, it came from a junkyard. But it turned out to be the most successful event of the three, because we had a good concept and a sufficient implementation.

So, yes, I think junkyard challenge is the perfect event for someone who is strong with engineering concepts, but is inexperienced or not very good at the actual construction.

Good luck!

Thanks...

I'm on the fence about doing it, but I think I'll give it a shot...

I can't believe this event came into B division!! It is extremely complicated from what I've heard from EASTstroudsburg13.

what is it about anyway

[Helix_Nebula_Freak]

Well, wen I did it as a Trial, u brought dis box of stuff into the event, nd they give u a task. U, during the ellotted time, must construct a device with the materials in ur box, and then go on to test the device during the same time period... mite b different now tat its official tho...

[yoyosciencekid23]

sounds kind of like experimental design
that would be hard to practice for but i think that that might be a good event for me

[49ers]

I think this event is a lot easier than I thought it was...
