in the url of the encrypted game manual, there is a three followed by a #.
Another game hint?

I myself personally don't enjoy the idea of a third alliance as it could possibly cause the playing field to be altered. Also people are ruling out the third alliance because the bumper material wasn't mentioned in the kit but lets not forget that the special box is 4" X 1" X 1" and could possibly be rolled up or folded bumper fabric

Somebody please verify!!

EDIT: This was simple substitution EXCEPT that '97' stands for both G and T. See discussion below.
Why would T and G be represented by the same number except to draw attention to them? T97 is a Volkswagen model called the Tatra. It's a pretty well buried hint, but I am willing to believe in the rebirth of the tetra! G97 represents a variety of things including a certificate of fitness, CNC codes, and wind turbine. Everyone else can have fun with that one, my contribution is complete.

If so, this really was a good hint! Hats off to the GDC!

Personally, I prefer the picture hints, but hey, this is cool too!

G97 is the rule that will require the robot to use copious amounts of neon-colored zip ties to ensure that it is indeed physically touching the loading zone when acquiring each Volkswagen Tatra game piece. #ignorethis #pointlessrulesfrom2005 #yesiusedhashtagsonacdpost

T and G are the same because of the Pi cipher the GDC used.

There's no connection to a Volkswagen or an old rule.

At the same time, they did choose to use a pi cipher. They could have used some other number just as easily (phi, e, avogadro's, etc). So I wouldn't discount it straightaway.

But I want the tetras back...

Maybe the numbers from the hint are coordinates for some polygons, that coincidence with each other? Random guess here. Or maybe the set of numbers before the coma is the location of a shape and the other three numbers describe it somehow?

Also, from the FRC Blogged - Information for 2013 - the What, When, Where & How thread

Maybe a hint about what the field will be?

That just looks like some old field elements/simple field elements

I was trying to avoid from posting that here :) but if you go look in more detail in the instructions on how to install LabView there are files recently opened for rectangular image captures, 2013 Game Simulator and a second image of from the perspective of the robot's camera via the driver's station of the same thing.

*edit* Scratch that - 1718 tricked us :) http://www.fightingpi.org/Resources/...12_Day_7.shtml

My prediction: We will be capping 3 goals.

So on the "Information for 2013" section it lists the Kinect SDK to download. However, the Kinect is not listed on the Rookie/Veteran KoP table.

Does this mean that everyone is getting a new Kinect?



Also, it says the official bridge is the DAP-1522 Rev B. I take it we will all be getting new bridges too?
