Re: 2014 Game
 
What if the entire field was a slope. Your alliance is all tethered together with a rope. You can only use some slippery tires (maybe the ones used in Lunacy [but on carpet, not Regolith]) you must prevent the other alliance from reaching the top, but not so much that you fail to reach the top yourself. Maybe you have a variety of differently weighted game pieces you have to haul up the "mountain", winner is the team who hauled the most weight. End game is if all your robots are at the top.

What if everything was made of Regolith?

Like the floor, the walls, the objective, and the only material permitted for robots was just regolith.

I'm sure that'd cause some friction with a lot of teams. Or...would it? :rolleyes:

Lunacy puns are against R106.5 of the rules.
RED CARD THE WHOLE ALLIANCE.

What if they just said: "No aluminum"?

Since we all like patterns here, has anyone else noticed that the color of the carpet has a very repetitive pattern over the last few years?

2010: Green (Non-gray)
2011: Gray
2012: Brown (non-gray)
2013: Gray
2014: Blue, because water game (non-gray)

I guarantee you some teams would still find ways to knock other robots over.

Robots operate attached to suspended monorails and can only travel along the rail. Maybe some clever game design putting some robots on the same rail.

The game is hockey and the floor is Regolith.

So you basically mean ice hockey? Sounds like a water game to me.

Well, The Blue Alliance hints at a water game. There's even this proof-of-concept posted on YouTube:
