You asked for it to go on Spotify.. and it’s finally arrived! The Excel World Championship song Spotify link is in the comments below 👇👇👇 And just so there’s no (more) confusion: I did not write this from scratch, I’m not singing it, and I didn’t play all the instruments. I seem to have annoyed the odd musical purest on YouTube with my lack of clarity in this area 🤷♂️ Made me a whole new Spotify profile too 😎 #excel #fmwc #excelworldchampionship #aisong #therobotsarecoming #iamamusicalgenius

🎉 Meet Our Incredible Team Finalists! 🎉 The MECC Team Finals featured the top four teams competing for the championship. Unfortunately, technical issues affected the game, particularly for the University of Arizona team, whose scores weren’t visible during the match, and both the University of Arizona and University of Tennessee, Knoxville teams, which experienced problems with answer submission files. These issues affected all teams, requiring us to adjust the scoring for the bonus rounds to ensure fairness. 🏆 Despite these challenges, the University of Tennessee, Knoxville emerged as the 2024 MECC Champions with the highest team score. Congratulations to them! 🏅 Given the fierce competition and how close the results were, many “what ifs” remain. To address this and celebrate the skills of our finalists, we’re inviting all team finalists to another special game early next year. Stay tuned for more details! 🎮✨ 📸 Swipe to see the teams, their incredible efforts, and the prizes they took home!
