      Hi @bubblegum18 for me the best part is getting asked lots of amazing questions. Already it has made me think carefully about how I explain things and also several of the questions have really made me think. Winning is not too important (but it would still be nice!), it is the taking part that is the fun bit.

      @annamiddleton is too nice. I admit it — I am really competitive, and I’ll feel great if I win. But if I don’t, I’ll be OK about it too.

      It would be nice, but actually the best bit for me is talking with you and the other students.

      Winning would be great, but it’s not the reason I signed up to do this.

      Same as everyone else has said–I signed up to talk to you students, not because I wanted to win.

    Gawd! My answer looks so smarmy! I’m rubbish at being competitive! I’m always the one at the end, pondering what is going on, enjoying the journey rather than the end point. It’s probaby why I’m in ethics and not hard science!
