Car Nack Predicts #1-08
 

Car Nack has been very, very busy herding his camels.

#1. No hurdle will ever be scored in the hybrid portion of the game.

Car Nack has spoken.

Agreed. Unless 71 or 111 does it.:D

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-08
 

Hmm.



Isn't Car Nack Mr. Bill Beatty?

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-08
 

I'm not leaving 1114 out of the 111 and 71 options! I don't know Car Nack, I think you might be underestimating on this one... ;)

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-08
 

According to their CD profiles Mr. Bill Beatty is from Hammond, Indiana and the great Car Nack is from the Endless Sands. I would say they are different people.

There are certain questions that one never, ever should ask. :rolleyes:

Really? Like what?

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-08
 

Everyone knows Car Nack is Johnny Carson! So the question as to Who is Car Nack is one of those that should never be asked. John Galt is OK, though.

Welcome Back, Mr. Nack. We enthusiastically await your every word.

I concurr with the Nack.

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-08
 

Why would you want to hurdle in Hybrid? What is the scoring benefit over just running?

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-08
 

You've done a feat that's ridiculously hard and also has some chance built into it. Regardless of how well you do in the eliminations, you've engineered and built one helluva robot.

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-08
 

I'm suspecting Car Nack is right on this one. In order to do it, you'd have to locate and knock down your own ball (8), capture it, take it across the opponents finish line to render the ball "live" for hurdling (crossing your own finish line, both lane dividers, and your opponents finish line to get back to hurdling position (4 points per line x4 lines)), and complete the hurdle (8) in under 15 seconds. If you could do it, it'd be worth 32 points if you just finished the hurdle, and 36 if you could also get across the finish line before time ran out.

Anyone who manages it should get a standing ovation and some kind of award.

I think it will happen once, with many failed attempts, at IRI.

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-08
 

Its not going to happen...

Strategy wise, its a waste of time
