I have no doubt.

30 days until Kickoff = 30 days to nail down the rest of the wedding vendors. ::faints::

I'm totally cool with waiting until the 26th, Dave. You can switch the NASA feed with some stuff floating in space, right?

The joke is on you. Dave's not even on the GDC anymore. He is the red herring. In fact, the whole GDC has been replaced. The animation he's working on is for Woodie's anniversary ... honest. FIRST has finally decided to make efficiency a priority, and thus has retained a much more competent group for the job. Here they are working diligently toward kickoff. :)

So this year's game will be called Nyuck, Nyuck, Nyuck? :rolleyes:

I was going to say, I guess Billfred finally made it onto the GDC officially...

*goes off to the Caption Contest threads to find hints*

We can still keep the ship date on February 20, if that isn't a problem.

WATER GAME

haha your robot must be outside the arena that is filled with water, the goal of the game is to catch live fish without harming them (if you puncture them on purpose you don't get the points).

1 fish 2 fish red fish blue fish :p

Fish = red herrings ==> lack of clues so far;
"Push things back" = return of the defensive period;
Threat of shortened build season = shorter game period this year with similar amount of work to accomplish.

(I'm not serious, I'm just polishing my overanalyzing for the real clue. :cool: )

Does anyone know when the official hint/clue comes out, or are we just going to have to keep checking everyday?

Re: One month to Kick-off
 
I would have to say FIRST spoils Christmas. We anticipate the kick-off so much that Christmas seems so pointless. LOL

2 thoughts -
1. this is a great time to get acquainted or re-acquainted with the ChiefDelphi fora. Check out threads in your areas of interest. There's been some good discussions during the off-season.

2. Christmas will never be spoiled by FIRST. Christmas will always be enhanced by my anticipation of the New Year and the FIRST Kick-Off but, I like to keep my priorities straight during this season of celebration. If I work at it, then everything is special and my family can share this time with me.
