Battle of Summa Puns

The first sub-building contest of Summa Barologicae has been concluded. The task was to finish a bare hull our team meticulously welded together from random parts that were lying around. We got many fun submissions, and many opportunities to use that pun. Evaluating was hard and naturally very subjective, but all of our judges cast their final scores.

It's unnatural to me to say a sub is better than another one. It may fit my style, mood or plan for the evening more, but what's an annoying flaw for one can be a great feature to the other - and vice versa. With that said, here are the vessels that received the highest scores from our judges.

3rd place Mako by Perald Baxter

Sleek combat vessel. Some simple visual tricks make it fit the theme. Better armed and equipped than I like it, easy to do well with it. Restricted access to rooms gives me ambivalent feelings, but it has it's merits. Torpedoes are always fun, complicating gameplay in an interesting way.

2nd place Hackle by Rabbit

The kind of madness I love. Few guns on the worst possible positions. Looks well equipped, but low on some critical supplies. There are a lot of readouts and buttons that do things, and the mundane user has absolutely no chance of figuring those out on the go. The ballast won't pump when the reactor is on. If the contest were only about the flow of the game, that would be my favorite sub. I'm a silly, and I like a a maddening challenge.

1st place Mud Dragon by Stein

I hate this submission. Such hubris, aiming for the highest looks and engineering score. I did my best to undermine my opinion about it, while favoring the others. \"Overgunned.\" \"Rational.\" \"Orderly.\" It wasn't enough. I could have ignored the flawless looks and that ingenious oxygen generator. But that weapon overcharge function is perfect, regardless if I look at it functionally, technically or visually.

Those were the scores our judges cast. The quote

TLDR: Kas on e-posti teatest paremaid võimalusi androidi nutitelefonil, millega saada hinnahäire, kui elektri börsihind ületab summa X?

Olen 220 Energia klient ning nende äpi kaudu on võimalik seadistada hinnahäire (saadetakse kiri), mis seisneb selles, et kui tulev elektri börsihind ületab sinu poolt määratud summa X, siis saadetakse su e-posti aadressile kiri.

Kas on veel mingeid võimalusi? Näiteks midagi sellist, et saada see häire kätte mobiilis sms või notification kujul? Või on ehk veel midagi mugavamat olemas?

Telefonil märguande lugemine oleks tunduvalt mugavam, kui e-kirja piilumine.

Kui kellegil huvi, siis leidsin antud teemaga seonduvad sellised äpid (millest on küll võimalik näha börsihinda ja kliendina muuta hinnahäire summat, kuid teavitus tuleb siiski e-postile):

I saw First Class Honors which I believe translates to >85% total for the entirety of 3rd/4th year. It seemed a little low to be equivalent to the highest honors - wondering if this was it. Also sounded a bit strange that you only need to consistently show high achievement in one year.

In any case, which would international (specifically US) universities consider?

I’m particularly interested in a version that preserves the use of technical terms in a way that early modern and post-kantian philosophers used them (i.e. “infinity” “quality” etc).
