Re: Game Hints & Animatino of Years Past
 
I believe that 2003 was the first year of game annimations.

As for hints...

2007 (closeup of tube on a spider)



2006: five 'bots tangling with pasta
a game piece obsessed with a shovel's show
and seeing Montana's green heights

5 referred to the backbot, pasta referred to bumpers
I forget how, but the second line referred to shooting
and Montana's green heights implied camera use, as well as Joe Montana -> throwing

Those are the same hints that I have (hand)written down in my notebook. Also the same hints that are archived in our team's forum, which are directly copy/pasted from the FIRST emails.

It did indeed point to a Zamboni factory. Also, Blip, the manufacturer of the Orbit Balls, is based out of Minnetonka (on Minnetonka Blvd).

Shovel = David Spade, his show = "Just Shoot Me", so you're shooting the balls.

I don't think the Joe Montana thing was intentional, since they mentioned shooting the previous line.

i always thought the just shoot me reference was about the use of the camera since it was a show about a fashion magazine and the title was a play on words referring to cameras

Well, the line is "a game piece obsessed with a shovel's show". So it would make more sense that the game piece would be obsessed with being shot than it being obsessed with cameras.

On the other hand, those game animations bring back good memories.

Edit (to recap)

2009 Hint 1: (Meaning: game theme, lunar)
Moon Fish Picture (see attachment above)

2009 Hint 2: (Meaning: Zamboni, ice game; Trailer)
Good Morning Teams,

Take your machine out of the shop on Colorado in
Paramount;
stop by and get connected on Central in Phoenix;
drive by and make a pickup on Minnetonka in Minnetonka;
then head to the field on Evergreen in Dover.

23 Days until Kickoff
See you then

2008 Hint 1: (Meaning: Hybrid Mode)
IR Board

2008 Hint 2: (Meaning: Race)
Greetings Teams:
42.349905

2008 Hint 3: (Meaning: Drive straight, turn left)

FRC Game Hint #3
Vet hurdling FIRST tetra

I really could just tell you to use the search, I definitely did that to dig these up. :)

For the 2008 Hint 2 you could also get the game pice out of it because Blip Toys' address is
15255 Minnetonka Blvd.
Minnetonka, MN 55345

Just thought I'd Point that out.
