2010 National Tournament: University of Illinois

[Phenylethylamine]

I think it's a better place for the NSO... I mean, it's hard to concentrate on your events when you're sweating your brains out in the humid Georgian air... Just kidding

I dont really care where NSO is. It's the fact that a bunch of geeky and/or nerdy Science Olympians like me can gather for something like this that really touches me...

The only thing about Illinois for me personally is jetlag. I'm not complaining, because Ik how hard it must have been for all you west coast natives, not to mention Hawaii and Alaska, to come to Georgia. Just a minor inconvienice...

*Raises eyebrows* It's only a one hour time difference from PA to IL, unless I'm mistaken... Jetlag shouldn't really be an issue.

but he/she is talking about people from the west coast, cuz u go forward.

"The only thing about Illinois for me personally is jetlag." (boldface obviously mine.)

What's all this talk about zetlag? Mabey because to Greece over the summer and i have to overcome a 7hr time difference my definition of jetlag has a differnt meaning than yours. The One hour difference between NY and IL is nothing to me. I"m sure you are going to be fine. 9PM eastern would be 8PM central. Now the West coast and especially hawaii and alaska are going to have a bigger problem, but they had to deal with that this year too, so they know what it's like.

i would agree a one hour time differental will do absolutely nothing

[starpug]

[crzyliljellybean]

EAST SIDE!!

[soobsession]

ultimate frisbee?

go east!

[EASTstroudsburg13]

Ultimate frisbee is the most amazing sport ever, I destroy at it. How would east and west be defined?

For me, one hour can throw you off a little bit, but it doesn't really matter. It's like Daylight Savings Time, no different than that.

lol the last time I played that i broke my ankle and am currently wearing a walking cast because of it
a tourney would be epic though

[jazzy009]

I'm not too great. im fit but throwing Frisbees is always questionable. however its still a fun game. we played this year outside the cocacola factory in georgia.

[soobsession]

lols. we celebrated the end of our season this year with an ultimate frisbee game

EDIT: "celebrate" is not really the word id use, but you get the idea

Oh yeah. There are far worse jetlags than a one-hour difference. (Trust me... Minnesota to the Philippines. Think going to bed at 8 in the morning.)

That would be really fun. But I don't know how good my team is- we've never really played but I don't think we are very good.

Also, if we did do east vs. west, where would we divide it??? texas is smack dab in the middle so....

East and West of the Mississippi? We could also just say everyone in the Central and Eastern timzones vs Western, Mountain, Hawaii, and Alaskan Timezones.
