Scratch

cool    and do you need help with your signiture? All you need to do is add [img][/img] at the ends    thank you 

1. how old do you have to be to be apart of the scratch team or possibly an intern?
Cheddar is about 17, I think, but she's not actually a proper member. I think I read she was just upgraded so she could help out on the website. The youngest to help out at the MIT lab is probably 20 or so.

2. About how many people are apart of the scratch team?
On the forums, maybe four or five, but I'd estimate there's about twenty others who don't use the forums.

3. When was the Scratch Team Formed (along with the website and program)
I think it was some university students who had to make something for a course, and it

4. Are there any other programs that MIT do?
Yes. I'll find a list soon.

5. How much of the day do you usually spend on scratch?
Me? About four hours.

6 (added after). Where is the scratch studio??? do they have one??
Scratch Studio? I don't understand what you mean.

What is with everyone trying to guess my age all of a sudden? Speaking of which, no one has ever gotten it right. 
19?

For the most part, most join the Scratch Team as MIT undergraduates through the UROP program (as indicated by the Administrator Info Page). Given that, I don't believe there's a set age since college students come in at different ages (some can take advanced programs and skip ahead a few grades, some might come in later after work experience, and so on); it really depends more on your eligibility to get accepted into MIT and the UROP program.

Although the part about the upgrade is rather true; the same can probably be said of Paddle2See since he's not a student of MIT either. But those are very rare exceptions, both Paddle and I were moderators and pretty active on Scratch before we got the ST titles.

I thought Paddle did spend some time at MIT, but not with the LLK and Scratch.

I was referring to current status (as in Pddle2See and I are not students currently attending MIT).

And still no.    But let's stop with the guessing games now, I don't want to derail the thread way off topic.
