So next year we'll be manipulating large bold italic block letters to spell FIRST?

spell first on the bar from 2003 and the balls are replaced by an alpha betti spegetti style mix of letters |

Autonomous mode using CCDs or laser scanners for pattern recognition. Spell F I R S T in 15 seconds for 50 points bonus; that's 10 points for each letter in the correct position. This will be nice challenge. :D (reader warning: This is the Rumor Mill! Rumor Mill.... rumor Mill... ) |

Re: First logo and tasks
I did notice how the objects that are played with have been in order starting with the squares, then the balls and then to triangles. My bet is that next year the game will have something to do with a squared object.

Re: First logo and tasks
Next year FIRST will come up with its own shape called the FIRSTagon. These will the new game pieces.

Re: First logo and tasks
maybe pentagons (5 letters in first, 5 sides) or a 5 sided object made of pentagons? (is that even possible, if it is, what is it called???)
|
Re: First logo and tasks
Well, a quick Google search turned this up (Closes i could find to a 3d 5 sided pentagon shaped object)

So, I think it's basically a coincidence. The FIRST logo was probably based around the three basic shapes, which just happen to have a large number of things like them... |
