Batons.

Note to self: Next time a thread like this happens, find EVERY "hint" that Dave or others have "released" for every game and put them into the thread.

And just last night, I looked at a spotlight from Dave where he talked about an impromptu water competition--with FIRST robots--outside--with no electrical issues. Yes, a water game is possible, or was with the IFI system and its predecessor. Let's hope the cRIO takes more "abuse", including water-related.

Re: New Game Progress

I've never seen "Degrassi" but Karthik's post about 1114 being on that TV show made me think of "Saved by the Bell".....

And you thought trackballs were big...

It would be cool to see another "Co-Opertition" game. I bet it would throw my team a little out of whack (in a good way).

I wasn't a huge fan of coopertition. I'm gonna be so happy to be able to travel in whatever direction I want again this year (Hopefully). I'm so happy G22's reign is over.

You never know, Dave might be thinking of something totally crazy.

Re: New Game Progress

How about a game that involves every single previous game pieces and objectives, combine them all into one game.

Oh, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Floppies+puck+rotating tree+rack+overpass+balls of various sizes+corn on the floor+platforms+ramps+hanging bars+shooting the game pieces+boxes+tetras+mobile goals+zones+inner tubes= "How on earth do we fit it all in?"

Never mind "How on earth are we supposed to play this?" and the <G22> penalties, loading zone violations, and other miscellaneous penalties (and exceptions).

Never mind that (in the early years) tipping was legal, and the "no wedges" rule was only enacted in 2005... Oh, and which parts limitation do we use?

On the other hand, teams already have a plethora of designs to choose from. Oh wait...:D

Soccer was done in '06 :p... then again basketball was done in '06...

Hmm maybe a baseball themed game or hockey or football :eek:

Come to think of it pool noodles in a baseball themed game :D

Great I think we just started waking up the lav monster... *invests in stock of Tylenol cause me thinks I'm going to need it this year*

Well, in most northern states the water game would turn into an ice game. :P Course that would be interesting to me.

Optimally next years game would allow multiple ways of scoring that are scored appropriately to their difficulty. Autonomous mode will probably make a come back as opposed to hybrid. Hybrid was an interesting twist but with the increased processing power it seems foolish not to use it. Dont be surprised to see a twist on the game piece. I am tempted to agree with Leav that pool noodles would be an awesome game piece. Inter-robot communications would be pretty fun to do as well as very relevant to real life.

Ok now for some randomness:
at every regional we will have a webserver our robots will have to open a tcp/ip connection to. Will have to traverse the file structure and find a file. Open the file and it will contain the location to drive to (randomly generated on a per robot basis) at that location we have to place an object and repeat the process. And thats just auton. :D

Ok that was a fun joke.
