Disease Detectives B/C
-The path of the Administrator is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.
-Nothing\'s gonna get deleted. We\'re gonna be like three little Fonzies here. And what\'s Fonzie like? Come on, what\'s Fonzie like?
-Cool?
-Correctamundo. And that\'s what we\'re gonna be. We\'re gonna be cool. Now, I\'m gonna count to three, and when I count three, you let go of your mouse, and back away from the keyboard. But when you do it, you do it cool. Ready? One... two... three.

Re: Disease Detectives B/C
Man, it feels really weird to not be competing in this event after doing it for 5 years. Best of luck to all of you who actually are!

Re: Disease Detectives B/C
The focus is still Environmental Quality I think, so it should cover pretty similar topics and questions.

Re: Disease Detectives B/C
I haven't seen the official rules yet, but the calculations can't be that difficult, can they? Nothing you can't find and learn easily on the 'net, I'd guess.

Re: Disease Detectives B/C
Maybe 25% of the teams can really handle the math we already had, in my experience. Now we have a bunch more math, so this year should be interesting.

Re: Disease Detectives B/C
Just as a PSA, there's now a really good set of statistics learning guides on the soinc website for disease detectives in case anyone is struggling with the new math.
