WHOOO HOO!!! Let the games begin!!

I spy with my little eye.. a bunch of numbers

Amethyst = 6th anniversary stone
John Neun -(V = 5)?
George Burns (Actor)= 100 years old when he died
Pi = ~3


Something between 3, 100, and 65?
Weird...

And Mike.. uh.. yeah. George Burns, Actor..

"I think its pretty clear from the shape of amethyst gems and from the triple-play clue that we are going back to the hexagon fields with 3 teams. Now for the "Pi, you, and me" part..."

Yes, lets go here. Another definition of Pi

What is pi? It is equal to C/d, or C/2r, where C is the circumference of any circle, and d is its diameter, and r is its radius.

How could circumference fit in?

My dad took a look at the hint and came up with Amethyst colored glasses = rose colored glasses. And its Montgomery Burns on the simpsons. George Burns is an actor.

Re: Official 2005 Clue Thread
 

Yes, he was a vaudeville actor. See wikipedia entry

Re: Official 2005 Clue Thread
 

Aaaaah! George Burns was in a Soylent Green Promotional Film! Our robots will be fueled by people ;)

He was also in a the Beatles film "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band." We'll be seeing lyrics soon!

thinking about last year's clue and dealt with a rule of the game so could there be something matched with the clue to a rule, you can make up. but another one of my guesses is it has to do with a rule of some thing. but the rule deals with the field and what you can do.

Re: Official 2005 Clue Thread
 

6 sided field, 95 points max??, and maybe he has an actual pie in his shirt???
I dunno, i might be totally off

Re: Official 2005 Clue Thread
 

Perhaps a six sided field with a hole in the center of size Pi * (you) and (me). Whatever you and me are in that equation I don't know.

hmm... a nut shaped field.

This is going to drive everyone completely crazy for the next 8 days. i don't think i will get much sleep. So many possibilities so many different meanings and soo many different opinions. LOL but i guess this is what FIRST is all about.

Corey you might be on to something with the pyramids i don't know how you got on it but here is something to back you up http://www.jimloy.com/pseudo/pyramid.htm this goes with Corey theory.

Re: Official 2005 Clue Thread
 

Maybe theres a pyramid in the center and thats where the robots start off at? I dont know ahhh:ahh:
