There most likely not be water in the game so quit thinking that there will be water people. water could damage robots and the buildings that the events are held in.

umm maybe im just hallucinating but twhen the clue is maximized i definitely see a outline forming from the wrinkles in blue. looks sort of liek the outrline of a butterfly.

Re: 2007 Official FRC Game Hint / Email Blast
 

i still think that one thing i can say fairly positively is that there will be steps this year. The outlines in the blue around the diamond clearly suggest something like that, and FIRST likes steps and we have had relatively flat fields the last two years. i think we are overdue for steps, and if we dont have them this year we should definitely have them next year so some time in that 4 year cycle the team has the challenge of steps.

Possibly...five steps? In a pyramid? With a platform on top where you score round, relatively flat scoring objects?

didnt read the whole thread, but did anyone think it might be checkers?

Re: 2007 Official FRC Game Hint / Email Blast
 

Anything's possible.......care to share your reasoning though?

Re: 2007 Official FRC Game Hint / Email Blast
 

Ok heres my idea, actually partially my fathers.

It could possibly be around chinese checkers. Heres why. On a chinese checkers board thers a five point star surounded by a circle (each point with their own area or goal). This could suggest that there are five areas to store (put, throw, roll, slide,) game peices into. As for the amount of robots on the feild that has to be 4 robots in a two on two match style with red and blue teams. There will be five goals, 2 on each side with one in the center, and the two teams will fight for surpremacy of the feild (just like tetra attack). This is suggested by they diamonds in the pucture (a four sided figure). The team with the most game peices in a single goal wins supremacy of the goal.

I think it is a 6 point star in chinese checkers

You are talking about a David Shield here...

5 in french is cinq, and in spanish is cinco, which sound kind of like sink and sank respectively. Maybe there will be a pool with a floating diamond plate platform that we have to place something on to make it sink to score points.

water is bad please don't think of water. if any electrons get wet you would end up shortcircuting your robot witch could hurt someone who doesn't know that it has shortcircuted.

Kind of looks like some of the shapes in the animation frame.
I wonder if they can take custom orders for blue ones? ;)

I do thing the backround is a distorted picture of the playing field... or at least that is what it looks like to me
