How so?

Since the title of the blog post is "Kit of Parts Info and an actual Game Hint", I don't think that the Rick Roll picture was a real hint.

But the yellow was only used for the autonomous tubes, while the white were used for all of teleop. Remember, white is the third color in the F.I.R.S.T. logo.

Did anyone notice that the KOP Site says the checklists for the KOP will come out 1/2/13 instead of 1/5/13 when kickoff is... Just something to think about.

Went to the NASA page for the mission #31.Notice the launch date is today, the same day the hint was released....relation? As well, "Starry Night" is the background, possibly the game is space related?

You guys are amateurs. Allow me to mentor you:

Now go, my minions.

(In all seriousness, did no one else key on the duplication of 341415326 in the same position of the sequence as an obvious coordinate system of some kind?)

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!

Intrigued by the KOP dimensions, could be interesting if not a typo. We believe that the GDC works more than 1 year out, so I dug up this post from last year:

"On a slightly unrelated note, there has been a lot of speculation re: the return of minibots. Why not apply the "miniaturization" principle to the grown-up bot? The 38 x 28 footprint has been somewhat sacred lately, and it's possible that the GDC had issues with so many chassis designs being "recirculated" from Rack 'n Roll last year. The new CRio is smaller, why not the robots? A smaller footprint would force many teams to rethink their entire packaging scheme."

Smaller robots might make a 3 alliance match feasible, or are we missing the obvious witht the multi-colored push pins, and the GAME PIECES come in 3 colors (red/yellow/blue)?

Also notice there are 2 red ones, perhaps the red alliance could be larger than the blue or yellow, or if it's game pieces, perhaps red is worth more?

What would the point of that be?

Also, there is no indication that the Rick Roll picture is an official hint. Notice how the recent blog post today calls the new one an "actual Game Hint."

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!

maybe one alliance is supposed to defend something and the others have to cooperate to achieve it

Could the key to the code be found within the Mayan calendar? 31 is a significant number in some forms of that calendar.

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!

I think that every two digits represent a letter...

31 / 88 27 41 53, / 62 23 41 41 53 26
41 23 83 97 53 88 / 97 88 53 31 97
31 / 26 23 83 83 53 88, / 33 23 41 41 53 26
93 27 64 26 23 83 97 / 99 53 23 97 93 97

and it means that the whole thing is made of 14 different letters:

31 - probably A or I
88
27
41
53
62
23
26
83
97
33
93
64
99

5 of these must be aeiou, and additional 9 others

now what?

They could have different point values, or maybe the red one causes some sort of penalty? I think the notion of a color sensor on board is interesting. Maybe a color sensor is in the "box to be named later"? Hmmmm....

They seem to be segments of Pi. Try running them through here and seeing what the places are, and then we might have a string of numbers that could translate to letters.

Code:

31__88 27 41 53,_62 23 41 41 53 26

00__34 28 02 08,_21 16 02 02 08 06

41 23 83 97 53 88__97 88 53 31 97



31__26 23 83 83 53 88,_33 23 41 41 53 26



93 27 64 26 23 83 97__99 53 23 97 93 97

It won't be directly translated into words, still.

Replacing each couplet of Pi numberals with its position in pi, we get:
a robe, kibbed

binger greag

a dinner, mibbed

volding weigvg

Code:

31 41 59 26 53 58 97 93 23 84 62 64 33 83 27 95 02 88 41 97 16 93 99 37 51 05

1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

a  b  c  d  e  f  g  h  i  j  k  l  m  n  o  p  q  r  s  t  u  v  w  x  y  z
