LOL

I was just making a remark how by this point last year we were trying to figure out what
A Rose kissed
Singer great
A dinner missed
Holding weight

meant rather than trying to figure out the clue actually said. At this point we have no solid proof that Doctor Who references or triangles on the ground with water bottles are the game clue. They might be, I don't know, but, uh...maybe they finally stumped the Chief Delphi community? XD

also - 61126/1963 = 31.13907285... which is the hex code of BLUE, same method.

Just want to mention i got confused - the second color is BLUE, not green as I wrote accidentally before!!

I'm thinking baseball.

Yes, except those really high numbered ones have no consistent meaning.

Of the well known ports 57 is the mail transfer protocol (OMG...ZIP codes anyone!)

The points on the Cartesian coordinate graph are a triangle, but if you look at the shape of the triangle it is like a flag, specifically a flag for capture the flag, thus we are playing capture the flag

I think we are looking in the wrong direction I believe the numbers decode to something else, they have no direct meaning as they currently are.

Let's not be too hasty now. We're still in the first few hours.

Oh believe me I have not given up. Chief Delphi is an incredibly smart, creative, and resilient bunch, and I think we'll figure it out before the weekend is out.

Maybe they are looking at replaying an old game?

No, probably not. This would give the teams that have been a long time a HUGE advantage over newer teams, as they will have already built a robot for that game.

I could see a mashup though-- and that could have to do with the old field pictures they've been posting on twitter.

Ahh, great! I'll call up the design team and make sure they can be ready by Monday to start the robot CAD.

So, someone needs to tell me what this game hint has to do with the glow-in-the-dark measuring tape that was mentioned from CMP last year...

... :D ...

He was shot from a book depository...

Books go on shelves...

Stacking things onto shelves?

That could also make sense with the mail theme that people seem to be throwing around as well.

I could see that being a possibility.
