Does the Colorado River a) flow through Paramount and b) have a shop on it?

(Next question: is there a Central River? Minnetonka River? Evergreen River? And can the above questions be answered for those rivers, should they exist?)

Re: Game Hint #2
 

paramount is an adj meaning: having superior power and influence

controlling the auto period would grant your team first offence period perhaps

central is defined as: serving as an essential component so there is something of extreme importance to game that may be controllable

not finding much useful info on Minnetonka

evergreen means: a plant having foliage that persists and remains green throughout the year

so there will possibly be a (green) goal that both teams can score in during the whole match

idk just thoughts

Re: Game Hint #2
 

The Colorado River flows through Colorado, Utah, Neveda, Arizona, and the California Border.

The only one of the other locations that has anything to do with water is Minnetonka which means "Great Water" and the Minnetonka Lake flows to the Mississippi River.

I think this guy's in on it.

Isn't the "Good morning teams" a stock phrase used at the start of all bill's posts? But aside from that, keen101 may have something.

Re: Game Hint #2
 

While talking to one of my mentors today (jerry) i had this crazy idea that makes allot of sense to me....

evergreen - earth (name)
minnetonka - water (lake)
paramount - air (airport at the end of it)
pheonix - fire (located on the upper edge of the Sonoran Desert)

Elemental?.... but what does it all mean.... i was counting on the forums to figure that out before my brain has a system failure and crashes.... (ill reboot and be better by morning) -- this seems like a real big coincidence to me...

Opah ("moon fish") = planet

Mars = planet

Mars = Ice

Ice = Zamboni

So now all we need to do is find Heart- with your powers combined, I am... FRC!

Re: Game Hint #2
 

OPAH = Heart?

Go Captain Planet!

This is quite possilby the most twisted logic I've ever had to use on anything, but here's what I've found. If you look at the capitalized words in each line, you'll see the letter are (in order by vertical column, first column first) are CCME, and PPME. Now, this means nothing to me. But, I reversed the orders, so its EMCC and EMPP. But this still means nothing, not to me, at least. So I noticed each set of letters ends in a double set of letters (CC and PP). So I thought maybe it might just be supposed to mean EMC and EMP. So I looked those up and may have found something. EMC can stand for Enviromental Modeling Center, an organization that better predicts atmospheric occurances. So I thought maybe this challenge may have something to do with weather. But I didn't find anything like that on EMP. So I went back, and I noticed that EMC can also mean Electro-Magnetic Compatability. I also noticed EMP can mean Electro-Magnetic Pulse. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't those terms for magnets? Maybe we're doing something with magnets this year. But that is still some twisted logic I used, so that might not be it, and by might, and mean probably. And even If I am right, how does the fish fit in? Ouch... my head hurts.

I got it! We all have to make EMP machines. Last robot standing wins!
JK.

But yeah, that's some pretty twisted logic.:yikes:

With everything said and this quote from Dave I think we are still heading toward a water game. :D

Unless your alliance partners deploy a faraday cage over your robot, or you have one built in; you had better have a very good autonomous program.
