One in Lexumburg, Austria, and Switzerland which were all neutral countries in WWII as well as Zossens colors being blue white and green. And green has been a popular topic on chief Delphi. Therefore I believe in a war based game. Also as some one pointed out before 42 was Jackie Robinsons number, as he broke the color barrier for baseball, which is another hint at a war game.

I highly doubt that FIRST will ever have a game involving war or fighting. A game like this goes against the ideals of FIRST, especially Gracious Professionalism.

Does anybody know where that picture of Dean, Woodie, and the other man came from?

Also, is there any chance someone could post a picture of a completed, unmodified KOP chassis? I'd like to see what GDC might have had to change based off of what it wouldn't have worked well with. Thanks

I meant last year's chassis. Sorry bout that. I'm sure it would be quite hard to acquire a new one, haha

Re: [FRC Blog] 2014 Game Hint
 
You can just go here to take a look at last years chassis.

They have been careful not to reveal very much about the new KOP chassis, but they have said that the frame will be sheet metal based, which should be similar to this.

The game may have something to do with Mars or space exploration in general.

I am currently working on translating the numbers into binary, then reading it as morse code, then applying a ceaser shift cypher at the end. I will post if I find anything useful.

Re: [FRC Blog] 2014 Game Hint
 
I went binary to morse on the first two and got jock and ip. Haven't tried swapping 0s and 1s or done the other 4. It kinda goes exponential, so it'll take a bit.

I rest my case.

It's the only number retired throughout major league baseball. The last guy to wear it (Mariano Rivera) just retired a few months ago. We're playin' baseball!

Every real Wiffle ball ever made came from right here in Shelton, CT. Time for a stake out the factory...

Of course, this has to be done underwater.

*NSYNC you say?



Bye Bye Bye -- no more robots. FIRST is over. Sorry kiddos, we're done.
