What is the game?
 

#%#%#%#%, I just caught the very end of the game announcement (I saw everyone clapping, and then the FIRST logo). Can anyone summarize it for me?

Big ramp in the middle
Boxes *like 20 gallon tubs from home depot*
15 seconds of automated action
10 seconds of human operation.
Stacks are multipliers. Highest stack multiplies points by how high it is

So the matches are 25 seconds long?

yes the matches are 25 seconds long there is definately no driver control now hurry up and start building:rolleyes:

Uh.. no they arent.

10 seconds- human player
15 seconds- autonomous robot
1 minute 45 seconds- controlled robot

*cough* sarcasm *cough*
sorry if its not appreciated

Sarcasm is best noted in a post as:

Just for future reference :)

It would've been appreciated if everyone know what you are talking about. ahecht here missed the whole kickoff, and really want to find out what the game is about. Kinda cruel of you to confuse him when he doesn't know anything about the game to begin with.

Just read over the game manual...it's only a few pages. It will probably give you a better idea about the game than someone trying to summarize it.

Note the :rolleyes: that's usually a pretty good hint.

My beef is that he didn't provide the real answer. If you're going to take the time to be silly, at least redeem yourself with a "... just kidding, [insert-real-answer-here]".

I agree with Brandon. If you want to be a comedian, move to Vegas. Leave CD to those want to help.

sigh i always manage to get misinterpreted at least i did not insult the two time regional champions this time in the process though lol. yeah I felt he was being sort of sarcastic in pointing out that the guys times only added up to 25 seconds. If I knew that he truly thought the game was only 25 seconds long i would not have responded like I did.
