You're absolutely wrong about watergame, but this is the most legitimate analysis I've seen in the thread...it's one of the few things (from my skimming) that links all three numbers together.

Well, the doctor's 50th anniversary was less than a month ago...

Doctor Who was mentioned in the blog following its 50th anniversary. Posted November 26th, "You should read the rest of the rules in this section for yourself, I don’t want to spoil the ending.*" "*SPOILER ALERT. If you can’t wait, I’ll tell you the end. Tom Baker makes an appearance as the museum curator. " Tom Baker was the 4th doctor. 1963 was the year the show premiered. Could the other numbers have Doctor Who related significance?

Where did you get those numbers?

Also in the 62326 zip code (Colchester) is Fandon, Illinois, which was to be the capital of Forgottonia

This should become the new water game thing.

or it could be a second lunacy challenge

Re: [FRC Blog] 2014 Game Hint
 

I have a theory. There have been several events lately focusing on the ideas of errors or mistakes. FIRST Choice failed twice, and a series of omnious blog posts followed. Three glitchy edits appeared in the 2013 manual months after the season ended, in quick succession, perhaps itself an error.

The number 8234 could refer to a product by National Insturments. It's an Ethernet controller that supports vision acquisiton. In LabView, error code 57 reads as follows: "This VI was compiled on a platform with CPU features not available on this host (SSE/SSE2). Rebuild the application with SSE disabled to support this target." Interestingly, we're switching control systems in 2015, so this error could pop up. I don't know enough about LabView in FRC to know if this error is ever seen in our purposes.

I'll write more later, just wanted to get this out there before the flood. The theme of threes and glitches / errors has been prominent in FIRST communication. Who knows?

From the hint their are three "3's" which could lead to three areas or the field,scoring zones,3 dimensional game piece CUBES?

Re: [FRC Blog] 2014 Game Hint
 

We realized 62326 was a palindrome. So if it's written "backwards and you assume the next number is also written backwards then you get 60851 which lead us to what Colin mentioned...

So basically we got...

61126/1963 related to zip codes...

62326 isn't a zip code but it is a palindrome. Then we reversed 15806 to 60851 and got the zip code for the 2014 world cup host city....

That takes care of the middle and end numbers. We are nowhere on 8234/57.....
