Because books.
Wait, there were no prizes, or you didn't know what they were until the end?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There will be prizes, but the topic didn't come up until the end, and they haven't decided what they are, and they won't be done scoring for a while. There's uploading and evaluation yet to be done. I can't even imagine. There are some real psychos in there. Every minute you were late past check in, you were docked five right answers. The last team came in with 30 seconds to spare, and people barred both doors in order to force the issue.
No one in the IT department can possibly test older than 12.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I think that sounds like total fun. But it's also true that my sense of humor is exactly 12 years old. I have finely calibrated this against many age brackets in church campers.
Team flea is go for Dusmesh at 11:30.
Yay!
That's the place! And 11:30 works for me (and I assume Tim). Yay!
Yay!
Any lurkers in the tri-state area, feel free to turn up. The secret password is capybara.
Yay!

I took my mom and my sister to the Field Museum this afternoon and then treated them to some delicious potato and bacon thin crust pizza.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Geez. The entire local police division is outside my apartment.

I can't lie, it was fun. Time did fly. Once I realised I could work it so I wouldn't have to make stupid faces on camera, but I could instead cut out beards out of paper for other people to wear as part of a spy disguise, I was pretty much comfortable.
They judged pretty accurately that there was no work done afterwards either--most people went straight to a bar afterwards. I tried to work, but just came home.
And I'm not writing that status report fuck that noise. I took an Ambien instead. They will get it tomorrow.
