The Doorway: a panfandom game

Well, that was one hell of a weekend. Major hat tip to the organizers of the robot wars. It was a fierce competition and a lot of fun. My fellow competitors gave me a run for my money. It was great to see so many awesome women competing.


That being said, celebratory ramen tonight! All are welcome.

So, if a certain MechE woman were still looking for a job... does that count as an interview?

[Female competitors of Robot Wars]

Great job, all of you. I am impressed by your work. Almost makes me want to start a refugee SWE (Society of Women Engineers) chapter). Or just have lunch together. Either works.

I still can't believe I managed to beat some of these people. Damn. Wasabi, no hard feelings?

You know, it's hard to really say that I'll stay friendly if people don't keep taking my tools.

FLOORS 3&4

Good morning! This is your pilot-- I mean, housing assistant-- speaking. I'll be taking care of you all from here on out, and I'll do my best to make it as smooth a ride as possible.

My name's Wash, but you can also call me Tanwonosaur. Dinosaur names can either be chosen or will be assigned to you. If you need help, you can let the internet choose a name for you.

If you have any questions or concerns, please direct them to me, or to the lovely Kaylee, aka Mommasaur, who has kindly volunteered to help me out. You can find me in room 306. My darling wife may need to get accustomed to people knocking on our door, but she won't shoot you. Probably. (Right, honey?) Kaylee is right nearby in 308 if you'd rather not risk it. You can also reach me at [phone number]. And there's always the network.

We've got some fun stuff planned for you, so look for more announcements in the future. In the meantime, welcome aboard and I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you a little better.

Dear wonderful people of the network.

This is just a reminder that in THREE DAYS, Stark Solutions is going to have its first Robot Decathlon. If you didn't enter before, there's still some time to enter now. All contest planning is done by yours truly that even Tony doesn't know what I have planned. Eeeeeveryone is invited. Also, FYI, the actual robot-building is going to happen during the decathlon to give everyone an even playing field. LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU THERE! :D

Aaand one more thing, I need volunteers for Saturday at 10am to test run the robots being built. One of the task calls for someone not involved in any competition to guide the robots through an obstacle course to test out the usability and that's where you come in. I promise you some really great cheesecake if you volunteer!

While today can be filled with lots of fun, sometimes people's senses of humor don't always match up the right way. Even if it's just getting super excited about a fake release and then utterly devastated when you realize it's a prank.

So! Anyone who is feeling even a little bit down because of a prank, I have been baking all morning so there are plenty of cookies, brownies, and muffins available to brighten your day! There are even batches that are sugar free, gluten free, and/or vegan for those with dietary restrictions!

Hey, all you people interested in bot wars (and all you other engineers and building types)!

I'm proud to announce that the weekend of April 10th will be the First Annual Stark Solutions Robot Decathlon!

What does this mean? It means a weekend filled with ten tasks to challenge all your robot building skills! We'll be giving out prizes to the winners of each task as well as a grand prize and medal for the top three cumulative scores.

So, I know you're all wondering, 'How can I be a part of this awesomeness?' There's a sign-up sheet down in the lobby of Potts Tower. All interested parties are welcome! There's no age limit, no skill limit, and if you just aren't feeling it, there's no requirement to stay through the whole competition (although that obviously withdraws you from the grand prize). So, go! Sign up!

So I managed to get my motorcycle license over the weekend. Figured that it'd be useful in case I ever want to ride a standard bike here or if I get pulled over for riding my own. Which would be unfortunate, but I suppose it good happen.

Any fellow riders here with places to ride they'd recommend? I know I need to go upstate along the river because those looked beautiful but any other good places for a fast, beautiful ride.

It just doesn't feel the same with Baymax gone.

Checking in to see if you all are here and alive and well. I can finally breathe again and I'm really starting to miss the lab.

[Accidentally posted, voice transmission. Baymax has been running like crazy and is low on battery at the moment, per the movie scene!]

I...push the button...help people.

How do you....feel? Scale 1-10? Oh, hello! So bright...who can help?

I missed the tribbles? How did I miss the tribbles? Science, how could you betray me?

Go Go. Next up after kimchi, Baymax Ramen. Ramax? Baymen? What the heck?? Except it's kind of weird to eat my own bot. I think I'd rather float in ramen too.

I was pretty impressed by the snow tunnel Bostonians built. Really, it's just a matter of using what you have on hand. I'm almost curious to take a field trip to see what 100" of snow looks like. Not really something we experienced in San Fransokyo.

I may be tempted to start making my own kimchi. Someone save me.

Would anyone be interested in robot wars?

I do not understand. The garment is hideous blue and black, is it not?

Man, I really don't mind striking up conversations with random people. But I know next to NOTHING about March Madness, I'm a more martial arts kind of guy, not basketball.

Hey there. Name's Wasabi. So my buddy, Hiro, told me about your workplace and I was wondering if you'd happen to have an opening for a guy who knows a good deal on science with an expertise in laser physics.

Just so you know, I love you guys.

Tadashi's gone.

I'm not gonna do anything crazy. You guys can't either, unless you take me with you.

Considering how much I just love those glowing orbs I made for the black out, I just couldn't resist getting this table to match.



It's just too perfect!

So, I wanted to make something like this out of the snow, but I'm not sure my Mech E skills transfer over that well. I think it needs an artist's touch. At least for the design aspect. What I'd love is to build a working snow-cycle. Maybe if we had some more snow and I could figure out a propulsion system that wouldn't run too hot.

Okay, so we're all here except for Fred (who needs to hurry up), so we can't not do something for Superbowl weekend.

Pizza, drinks at.. whoever has more apartment space?

I am Baymax, your personal healthcare companion. I am reading that many of you are injured or hurt. On a scale from one to ten, how would you rate your injury?

Headed for an automatic door. It didn't open automatically. What's the right way to stop a nosebleed?
