Emato's profile shows that one of his interest is cryptology
and one of simplicity jones' posts states that his brother is an aircraft mechanic.
for emato's question the answer could be true but for simplicity jones' I think it might be false. He wouldn't be able to fix the cirrcuit board on an SSF1 but his brother might

i was about to say the same thing for simplicityjones. in addition, he's had trouble playing both games on his computer, since it is old. if the computer is considered part of the circuit board, then he would indeed be struggling to maintain/fix it. any other thoughts?
EDIT: then again i just found a post by simplicityjones in which he says that he has worked on old cars...not sure if that's enough to fix a ship circuit board though

1. Super speedflier is the bravest fleet of all: False (Sonic Strength has the trait of courage)
2. Recruit simplicity jones knows how to fix the circuit board on SSF1: False (he has an old Pentium 1 PC, and he was also having trouble clearing his cache--he isn't his brother either).
3. Recruit Captchrispeanudle has a secret agenda and should be watched:
4. Brain blast fleet sometimes has trouble keeping up with the rest of the fleets: True (they do have a pretty low score)
5. Sonic Strength fleet has special powers that even cap. Coop doesn't know about:
6. Recruit emato should work for poppetters code cracking division: True (trait of cryptology)
7. Recruit froid is a spy for red cozmo: False (explanation below)
8. Twin Team Work fleet can always be counted on: True (friends can always be counted on, and we're the best of friends)
9. Recruit Major Minor is a good hunter:
10. Silkie values the Prize more that the test itself: True (post history--just wants some swag)
The rest I'm still researching. Froid isn't a spy. I think this question has to do with our suspicion/disbelief in his Pilot Eyes score. We cannot fall victim to fear and suspicion...

i think major minor is a good hunter.
2 reasons: she's on the leaderboard for both games and she's gone digging deep into the internet to find information.

Agreed. I'm rethinking Brain Blast being behind now... it seems they merely fall behind on the evals only.

I'm on the fence too. They're also way behind on bonus points...but that's pretty much out of their hands. I'm just not sure if they are referring to overall scores or individual games. If it's the latter then the key word in the question is "sometimes" in which case the answer may very well still be true. Kind of funny, since they have the second highest score for one game, the highest for the other, and the lowest for everything else.
Do you think either of the remaining answers is "no comment?"
I feel like they wouldn't have given us a third bubble if it wasn't the answer for at least one question.

I think it works like an Advanced Placement test. You don't lose points for not answering/selecting no comment but it will decrease the spread of the points. Example, 8 answered and 2 not would award a score out of 8; not 10. So if you get 2 wrong it's 1/4 wrong instead of 1/5. Make sense? It may be beneficial to do this if we are certain our other answers are correct.

gotcha! (except starting this year the college board actually eliminated the guessing penalty on all AP tests...im a senior, but i gotcha nonetheless )
phew! just finished reading every single post by melodyman since the last fleet eval went up (3/23). i figured that was a good cutoff date considering he has over 700 posts total. most of it is comprised of 3 things: 1 analysis of various events, 2 him being a stickler for forum rules and policies (lolz), and 3 him lamenting how slow this arg has been going. not sure if there was any secret agenda evident in any of his posts...not as far as i could see, but i definitely want a second opinion.

He doesn't have a secret agenda. His agenda is to enforce the rules and be entertained by the PMs.

so that just leaves us with the questions about sonic strength and brain blast (unless for the latter we decided what the question was addressing--total scores or just game scores)

Each type of score should be evaluated. I'm sure they are considered to be behind a little. I mean, at one time, they were completely behind. Not so much anymore, kind of. I think that one is solved. As for the fleet having powers over Coop... that's way too hard to answer with any confidence. I'm going with No Comment. Anyone else want to weigh in?

i tried reading the Sonic Strength thread to find anything...i found qualities like competitiveness and impatience (sorry guys just calls em as i sees em), but no beans on "powers" per se. Look like we need at least a third opinion on this doozie of a question.
p.s. Chainsaw, hope you don't mind, I'm fashioning my signature after yours...it's about time i proudly share my accomplishments!
EDIT: i ended up going with false for the Sonic Strength question...i couldn't find any evidence of a special "power" they had. their scores on everything across the board were mid to low range. if they had a power, wouldn't their scores be higher?

Hey everyone, I'm in the grape team too, I got my diploma a while ago and I need help to sign in.
If I click login, my password doesn't work, when I ask them to mail it to me, I get a confirmation code.
I can't register again, it will be like a new member thing.
I have no idea what to do to help the team.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Oh and if I go into the Astronaut program -> Register, if I enter the name and code on the envelope, it doesn't work because they only accept numbers as portal code.
