Re: Serious the Real hint
 

What kind of hint in 5?

Re: Serious the Real hint
 

Hrm A Number 5 on Diamond Plate Backing. Against a Blue Background maybe the number of teams in scoring position, number of scoring positions, number of socing items, number of teams that are allowed to play at once hence the back bot in '06

It could also refer to how many wheels the robot must have

Maybe it is the 5 of diamonds. Part of a card game. Stack the cards and build up your score. I could be that as lights change color then there would be some kind of shuffle.

Also could mean 5 manhole covers. HMMMMMMMMM

Re: The REAL Game Hint
 

you are a little late, there is already a thread for this, sorry

Re: The REAL Game Hint
 

The word: 5
:confused:

It looks like a manhole cover! I beat there is a 4, 3, 2, and 1!

Re: Serious the Real hint
 

I did think that the background looked like a light

Re: Serious the Real hint
 

What no Rock n Roll lyrics to decipher or wondering metafors in the clue, just a number on a simple background:confused:

I've got nothing:ahh:

Note to self: if 1293--D5 Robotics, mind you--doesn't pounce on this one...

Just for reference, I tried to get some technical details on the photo, perhaps some EXIF data. I found nothing in iPhoto and OS X's File Info panel, so it seems they've covered their tracks that way.

Re: Serious the Real hint
 

Crazy.

Re: Serious the Real hint
 

Maybe it is saying that there will be five lights of each color on the field and these are the game pieces. They are numbered and each has to do something different. Or, they could be worth different points and that is what the number represents.

Here's the pic to keep it in the thread....
