Cambell's soup
Andy Warhol had a famous painting of Cambell's soup cans.
He had a similar painting of Marilyn Monroe
Marilyn Monroe sang diamonds are a girls best friend in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes"
Blonde means Platinum Blonde
Platinum is used in catalysts for Fuel Cells
Therefore we are using fuelcell robots.

Actually several teams are slated to be part of a promo use of fuel cells in robots this year instead of traditional batteries. Right on with that conclusion... i think : )

Neil Diamond did a song called Forever in Blue Jeans

Who does that make you think of?

There have been two theories about that, albeit they don't seem important to the game play.
Either the number is painted directly onto the diamond.
or there is a thin layer of plexi/lexan over the top of it.

alright heres my $.02
5 ending platforms only big enough for one robot a piece so one bot is left out. or something similar like that maybe only 5 playing objects so its an uneven number.

I told myself I wasn't going to get into the hint, but I can still read the thread, can't I?

Just noticing....reading above you, even though it may take f-o-r-e-v-e-r, just might be a good idea. I've seen so many people saying something we've already determined pages & pages ago.

It just makes reading easier for us all.

Stop, read the whole thread, and then post

The 5 has to be the amount of points you get for doing something...like putting a ring on the pole, or reaching to the level that you made it to.

If you look at the past two games, we see that last year's game involved a ball, and the year before used triangles. This can be connected to the FIRST logo, which is a triangle, a circle, and a square.
If we follow the pattern, the game would logically involve some sort of box.
this box may somehow represent a goal of some sort, possibly pentagonal.(this would explain the 5 and the diamond)

Not the logo theory again! If the logo theory is actually true, then yes, we get a box. (5 stacks? stacks of 5?) If not (my view), then this theory has only one purpose--confuse us.

I had to skim the last page b/c this is all too much to take in at 10:30pm, especially since I've been up since 6am.

Anyway my hopes:
-4 more clues/ less, or no more, vague picture clues
-CD's spoilers become better than Harry Potter spoilers (b/c they're quite good.)
-no water!, no neutral bot, no blue light camera sensor


'tis all. goodnight! & happy reading for those who can read all these posts in one go.

it'd be pretty funny if the number 5 had nothing to do with the game really, and FIRST is sitting there laughing their heads off at how many connections we are making with 5 and the world... I know i would do something like that for a good laugh...

You guys are all nuts. Its a picture of a 5. Theres no way you can even come close to determining the game from it.

Oh by the way...

Did anyone notice that 2007 is the 10 year anniversary of one of the greatest 1 v 1 v 1 games in history? Torroid Terror!

The game piece that year...tubes.

Though I kinda like the hula hoop idea.

Ya know, that could connect to one of the other theories i've heard.
someone said that the blue outlining might represent a, ocean-blue LED tubing......Just a thought.
