This portion of the contest is over. To see the winning entry click this link.
We hope you all liked the first question in our Baka & Test: Dumbest. Contest. Ever. event. When we asked all of you to think as a member of Class F you sure didn't disappoint.
It was a tough decision but the winner of Question #1 is VonOfnir - welcome to Class F!
Question: You’re on a train that leaves New York for Orlando at 8AM, going 60 mph. Three hours later, a train leaves Orlando for New York, going 85 mph. Orlando and New York are 1200 miles apart. What time will you be able to see the other train pass?
Answer:
Teacher: "Yes, you in the back."
Boy: "Well..."
(and thus begins a conversation in his head)
- wait a second, what if there is weather?
**eyes widen**
- Is it winter? How much snow is on the ground? Is it snow or is it ice? What if it's a mixture?
What if it's not winter, maybe it's spring?
**starting to panic**
- If it's spring and we're travelling around hills or mountains...OH GOD, MOUNTAINS!!!! That
means...
**jaw drops**
- MUDSLIDES!!!!!
**closes mouth and now has an inquisitive look on his face**
- But it could be in the summer...nice weather, can see everything.
**closes eyes and imagines the image with a relaxed smirk on his face**
- The animals on the farm grazing without any problems in the world. People walking around in
love, walking hand in hand. Workers working hard at their jobs. Oh it's starting to get a little dark,
must be rain. Wind is starting to pick up a bit...a lot actually.
** as a cow flies by in his dream, he snaps out of trance with eyes wide open and jaw dropped
and super panicked as he stands straight up and runs out of the classroom in terror screaming...
(which ends his own conversation in his head)
Boy: "HURRICANE!!!!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!! **crying**
Teacher looks confused and struck with awe.
Teacher: "Uhhh..."
**Teacher sees a girl with her hand raised intently as if she knows the answer.**
Teacher: How about you miss?
Girl: "6:05PM?"
There is still have room for two more students to join the ranks of Class F so do not worry. Because worrying requires proper thinking, and we can't have any of that here.
Answer the following question, most creative unintelligent or 'BAKA' answer wins the prize!
Question #2: Science
Explain why the sky is blue.
BAKA answer example: Because the ocean’s blue, and when water evapperates evapourrates goes into the air, the wet part becomes the clouds (don’t ask me how, I think it has to do with photosynthesis) and the blue color gets absorbed into the sky???
Question #2 Prize Pack

synopsis:
Class F is back in the Baka and Test - Summon the Beasts: OVA Special Collection! Fumizuki Academy's popular Refreshing Festival is quickly approaching, and the student body is busy prepping class projects. For Yoshii and the gang, there's a lot more at stake than showing off for campus visitors. If Class F doesn't profit from its festival project and buy some new gear for its dumpy room, Mizuki's parents are going to send her to another school! Of course, even if the slack pack makes some money, they'll have to win one of the toughest Summoner Test Wars of their lives before they're allowed to spend it. It's not going to be easy, that's for sure. But once the underachievers of Class F get motivated, they don't give up - and they can't even spell surrender!
If you missed them there is also Season One (DVD/Blu-ray Combo) and Season Two (DVD/Blu-ray Combo) available now.

I would love to explain why the sky is blue but I'm not a therapist. I don't know what it's deal is. Maybe it needs a girlfriend or something. I hear Mother Nature is single.
Teacher: How about you *points*
Student: *thinking* 'well, the sky is blue, just like the ocean, so maybe they connected somehow. B-but wait... they're both blue... how do we know which is the sky and which is the ocean? Doesn't water come from the sky sometimes?! And I see clouds in the ocean sometimes! What if... we're all upside down, and the ocean is actually the sky and the sky is the ocean?! How's all that water staying up?! What'll happen when it comes down?!'
Teacher: Well?
Student *hysterical*: WE'RE ALL GONNA DROWN!!!
because i made it blue... *cue maniacal laughter*
Becaz if it was pink, it would look very silly!
Teacher:Student #26,Explain why the sky is blue.
Student: Huh, ma'am did you say something? I was busy making a scientific discovery.
(students laugh)
Teacher: Oh really well, would you please come up to the front of the class and share what you have discovered.
Student: Of course, I gladly accept.(gets to front of class). I have been trying to find the answer to the same question you asked teacher. I have found that the skies are blue because it is bipolar, just like you Teach.
(STUDENTS BEGIN TO LAUGH)
Teacher: You insolent little-!!! Could you please explain with a bit more detail.
Student: Gladly. Well do you all know how the sky changes colors depending on the time of the day and seasons?
(STUDENTS ALL MUMBLE TO SEE IF THATS TRUE)
Student: I dont even know either. But Bipolar people change their moods, *snaps fingers* Just like that.
(STUDENTS "OHHHHHHHHH")
Teacher: Honestly *sigh*
Student: Well just like how Teacher changes her mood all of a sudden, its the same as the sky. Calm as blue, Anger as red-orange, and Lonely as night.
(STUDENTS LAUGH HARD)
TEACHER:(whispers to self)*Is it really that obvi-* I mean thats it you IDIOT. You have just been branded as a Probationary Student. Get ready to join Hell with Ironman.
Student: Well then that was a surprise...... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha this is easy...wait what was I doing?
*** talks to person next to him***
Hey do you know how to speak in Triangle?...Never mind the answer is 1/63 of that blueish purple color that's why it is blue...I like Donuts!!!
Wait a second...I thought the sky was pink? Eh? It's not?! Ummmmmm...I've never really looked up at the sky before...I mean...I've been too busy trying to cheat off of other people's tests. I mean! Oh man...I did not just say that. *sulks*
Josie a new intern to a tv station was asked to do human interest stories. So she thought to just ask a simple question and listen to the answers. She approached a young man dressed in regular clothes and asked a simple question. "Why is the sky blue?" The man paused and answered seemingly normal, "It is? I thought it was purple!" The reporter was surprised. "Why? Sir everyone sees it as being blue." "Well to me it's purple and my doctor agrees with me. He even gave these cool little white pills to help me see it more clearly." Josie a little disturbed thank the man and moved on. Next she approached a woman walking her dog and asked "Why is the sky blue?" The woman answered "Because it chooses to be." The reporter again was surprised. "It chooses to be? The sky can think?" "Yes and it holds elections every year to pick a color it becomes." "An election?" "Yes that is why I am encouraging people to vote for pink this year. Here take a pamphlet." Josie took the paper given to her and thank the lady. "Remember to vote pink." The lady and the dog moved happily on. More disturbed than before but not willing to give up on her goal, Josie asked one more person. A cute little girl with pigtails was watching the events from before and agreed to answer the question "Why is the sky blue?" "Because the water vapors in the air are blue and that's how we perceive them." Thankful for a real answer the reporter smiled in relief but the little girl was not done. "We find humans like water vapor and the calming color blue." The reporter was suddenly uneasy. "We?" "Yes us aliens like to keep our pets happy." "Aliens?" The little girl gasped "Oh dear I let that slip!! Well don't worry honey you will have new friends in the other world." "What other world?" The little girl glowed and turned into a 6'1'' grey skinned and shot Josie with beams from its eyes. Josie was never seen in this world again. I'm sure she's off in another world being a reporter and hunting down answers to questions that need answering. But never the question "Why is the sky blue?" "And that is why people never ask the question "Why is the sky blue" A father explained to his inquisitive daughter. The daughter, Josie, looked at her smiling father in amazement and ran from the room. "MOMMY!!! MOMMY!!! You were right Dad doesn't know the answer."
Teacher:(reads the question again) Explain why the sky is blue?
Boy:(raises hand) Pick ME!!!
Teacher: Great, it's you again. OK explain why the sky is blue.
Boy: The sky is blue because...
Teacher: Yes go on.
Boy:(thinks really hard to find the answer is his brain)
Teacher: Are you still with us or are you in your own world again.
Boy in mind: Is it blue because it is the first color that was made or the only color that was not yet used often.
Teacher: I think hes gone again.
Boy:(comes back from deep thought) It's because...
Teacher: Hurry up and answer, we don't have time to waist.
Boy: Can you repeat the question again.
Teacher: One last time (reads the question more slowly) Explain... Why... The... Sky... Is... Blue...
Boy: It's because... (brain gives up at this point)
Teacher: Are you gone for good this time or what.
Boy: I like turtles.
Teacher: We lost him again, so anyone else knows?
Girl: The gas molecules in the atmosphere scatter the higher-energy (high frequency) blue portion of the sunlight more than they scatter the lower-energy red portion of the sunlight.
Teacher: Correct, I wonder why you are still in this class sometimes.
Boy:(in his own world) HELP!! The turtles are after me!! HELP!! I HATE TURTLES NOW!!
Class Room: "a stillness strangles the room"
Teacher: Does anyone know at all?
Student 1:"Thinks to himself," I got this in the bag Ill just wait a second to see if anyone else knows.." "
Student 2: "raises hand"
Teacher : Yes go ahead..
Student 2: Because the ocean is blue and and blue reflects off the sky.
Teacher: Somewhat of a good try but not enough....
Student 1:"thinks to himself, "What an idiot.hahahaha.." (has giant smirk on his face)
Teacher: anyone else ?
Student 1 : "Thinks to himself, "time to show them hows the man!"
(stands up with a confident face) Sensei the answer is quite simple really. The reason why the sky is blue is because you know how people's blood turns blue because of the lack of oxygen? well the atmosphere is in a lack of oxygen so therefore causes the Sky to be blue. (sits back down)
Teacher : ummmmm.....I dont think the sky works that way....
