Last quarter we had some labs, to pass the class reports were needed of our measurements. Now there was a nice theoretical background included in the info so we were told to just copy+paste it in the report, but change it a bit so it's your own wording. Me and my partner already had a pretty high grade and a 5 or 6 wouldn't lower it at all. So... we decided to add a nice Pink Elephant in our last report. Today we got it back. No mention of it anywhere. And an 8/10. Quite interesting. |

How could a pink elephant possibly lower the score? Your teacher was mad for not giving you atleast an 11!;D |

I'm glad you're supporting the good Pink Elephant cause, Garm. Though I'm sad it went undetected. As for those of you who don't know the origins of the story, if you ever have to hand in a file, report, or article you think might go unread, put the word 'pink elephant' somewhere in it at random. Chances are, if the elephant goes undetected, your manifesto was probably skimmed over. |

Of course... I never had courage for doing that (at high school), but who knows now... |

I wouldn't recommend putting it in everything you write (as you'll probably get depressed knowing how few people will notice), but there's no reason you shouldn't try. After all, it's just two random words, and the person reading it doesn't know you're probing him even if he or she does notice the elephant.
