dammit!

apparently my school came 18th, due to using a slightly altered process, they were given a score of like 200,000+

bwecause we cant really afford to replace a lot of buretts (sp?), we switch oer the acid and base, so the base (?) is in the burett.

because of this, their process was wrong, and even though they had more accurate results the nthe winners, they were placed 18th.

if you were at hawksbury i think, my school was the group that broke a burett like 5 seconds into the competition.

i broke a burette clip (it was a crappy 100 year old clippy thing), my teammate had a broken pippete (the top of it) , and we spilled base all over the table, and indicator accidently got on some of it...not good for detective the hint of pink.

The team that came second spilled base all over themselves and contaminated most of solution B, so fudged the results....


klutz haven!
