The amount of solar cells…

The amount of solar cells you can stick on a car won't do much to charge it. The most efficient EVs right now get about 4 miles per kilowatt hour of energy. The most efficient solar panels generate about 400w, or about half a kilowatt hour per hour. So if you had the equivalent of one panel, you'd get about 13 miles per 8 hour day, if everything was optimal.

Everything won't be optimal. 

The solar car is wildly more efficient than any real world EV, which is how they make it work.

There's a good spot up above 10 where a bunch of greens and tees come together that's a nice vantage point without too much walking. 

I keep hoping that one of these years they'll break out the chainsaws and open the course back up a bit. Removing the trees on the left of 3 would make it a much more exciting hole.

There used to be a pretty sweet student woodworking shop next to the Union in the basement of the SAB, but it shut down in the early 00s. They had an amazing 48" planer. 

There's a student accessible shop up on North in the A+A building, but it may only be for the use of A+A students.

I don't know why but that's cracking me up.

Other ideas being kicked…

Other ideas being kicked around:

* After making a shot, the shooter can challenge the opposing team to make the same shot. If they miss, the scoring team gets two additional points. If they make, the original basket does not count.

* Free throws can be taken from the three point line and count for two points each

* Any points scored by anyone who plays less than five minutes of game time count for double

* Removal of the game long five personal foul limit. Instead, you get one foul for every 10 minutes of play. If you run out of eligible players, you have to play short handed. 

* Hook shots are worth 3 points. Hook shot three pointers are worth 4 points.

* Dunks are worth between 1 and 5 points depending on degree of difficulty

One easy one:

When in the comment editor, if you try to embed anything using the toolbar (using Inser Media Embed) it tries to call out to noembed.com over HTTP. This is disallowed since mgoblog.com is loaded over HTTPS. You need to change the call to happen over HTTPS. 

Have y'all thought about open sourcing the code behind the site? I bet at least a few folks would be happy to fix bugs for you.

They're going to have some interesting rule wrinkles too:

To differentiate the Alliance of American Football from its competitors, there will be no TV timeouts and 60 percent fewer commercials. Other differences will include no kickoffs and instead of onside kicks, the trailing team will receive the ball on their own 35-yard line facing fourth down and 10. There will also be a 30-second play clock and mandatory two-point conversion attempts after touchdowns.
