Except that then he'd have to get a restraining order against his own son.

(And, presumably, his food-tester. Did you ever fill that position, Dave?)

FIRST has a hard enough time staying on schedule as it is, with relatively rigid time limits. Imagine the nightmare that would happen if every match was a different length... :ahh:

I'm hoping with all of my heart that autonomous will NOT be at the end of the match. That would be a nightmare for us programmers.

Besides...why believe Dave? We all know that he likes toying with us, and this is awfully early for game hints...

Re: Genuine Lavery game hint??
 

the offsite link of that immage leads to

Red Herring Morris
Red Herring Morris is a mixed morris dance team,



witch leads me to belive that the new robots are going to require some grasefull movement like mabye doing the tango with a mobile goal, or another robot

Re: Genuine Lavery game hint??
 

Is that Morris, as in Morrison. Amanda Morrison? Andy Morrison?? I think those two are up to something....:eek:

Re: Genuine Lavery game hint??
 

i also took a look at John neun Sr.'s posts, All 2 of them and this jumped out at me " I will quietly take my place among his adoring minions" the only thing i can draw from it is robots joining presence with us adoring students. along with that red herring thing that sounds to me like...

the robot atonomusly cooperating with humans to complete tasks here is an example... http://www.plyojump.com/movies/hrp/H...elassembly.avi

lets say im in need of assistance with this hanging this piece of drywall up. so i have my robot help me by holding it in position whil i drive scrwes to fasten it to the wall.

He's just messing with us.

I believe the 2005 game will be like a remote-control version of NASCAR. :D

Re: Genuine Lavery game hint??
 

I'm up for building a race track around the field perimeter of the Georgia Dome.
Dave's refering to a kid crushed by a pile of balls... maybe while the robots race around they have to go through some obstacles. Or jump ramps and other fun stuff.

I have two things to say to this:
1. I will be going to the Science Museum of Virginia next weekend.
2. I have figured out the game, and it is that desert is important, ergo our robots will compete to make the most luscious of confectionary treats this year in order to find the truly best desert on earth. And hopefully it will involve bavarian cream...

ok, i'm delusional, too much NyQuill and being sick...

But if you want to win, you better make a delicious doughnut ;)

Re: Genuine Lavery game hint??
 

I fear that we have been led astray. The word desert could also mean a vast, arid expanse. Perhaps this years game will be played in sand. After all, Dave's other car is on Mars!

That would be absolutely aweful. We would have to have sealed drivetrains and no exposed lubricants and even the muffin fans are at risk. Hmmm, sealed drivetrains - it is extra work but wouldn't it be cool if we could fill it up with transmission fluid and do a fluid change after ever match? LOL :D
