I say the flag pole was the coolest part...although I thought the one where someone created a scene from smb using post-its was more impressive.

The picture of Mario coming down the pipe is freaking sweet. How'd they do all that?

I would love to have that one hanging from the ceiling.
The Mario and the pipe... I just wonder how they could have gotten that up there.
I am glad someone caught this on film.

Ya! the first bunch of photos just show some pictures on the walls etc. but those last couple of photos X_x some MIT gamer must have been up all night preparing those. They even got on the roof to put the flag up :)

Living in the area and being rabidly disgusted with MIT in general, these pranks get pretty old very quickly. They're always putting crap on top of the dome, yet it's always made out to be a huge deal by local media. With a few exceptions (the dome warp pipe, for example), most of the stuff shown in those pictures looks like decor in an elementary school done by elementary school students. That whole Mario characters in the windows of a building thing from like a year or so ago was much more impressive to me.

As a former student there, I would have to say this isn't terribly impressive except for the pipe in Lobby 7, which is a nice piece of work. For some real entertainment though, follow the link in the blog to the 3.091 course page. I don't know how I passed that class, and I now barely recognize the content in the tests.

Man the guys who did that are CLASSY 8-)
