O I don't know it seems so obvious

Re: 2012 Game?
 

I expect a combination of Aim High and FIRST Frenzy.

What I am expecting is the unexpected (what that is I don't know).

Re: 2012 Game?
 

Did anyone notice the use of the word "hanger" on bills blog? http://frcdirector.blogspot.com/2011/12/thats-wrap.html
It should be spelt hangar...

Re: 2012 Game?
 

For the most part, I think the GDC misspells words to mess with us. However, this find could be negligible, or the most important find ever! Let's keep watching for anything else that may back this up.

*Robots shotting poof balls at opponent's trailers while swinging from a pole they're hanging from? :)

Oh yeah, and I forgot something. I'm Andrew Lawrence, from team 256. Here's my standard for-every-new-member-of-Chief-Delphi-Welcome:


WELCOME TO CHIEF DELPHI!!!!!! :D

Re: 2012 Game?
 

Thats actually a fantastic find.

Re: 2012 Game?
 

Bringing back this idea:

Re: 2012 Game?
 

Hello Chief Delphi! Long time lurker, first time poster.

In the spirit of hypothesizing about the 2012 game, I'd like to share my (crazy) idea I came up with for the end game.

Keeping with the trend of relating the game to world events, my theory is that the lights on the field - that have been heavily hinted - will be notable in the end game. Essentially, there will be twelve lights to represent the calendar months. As 1/12 of the match finished, a light goes out. When one light is left, this represents December, the hypothetical end of the world (Not supporting the theory, just stating it) where the field will become obstructed from the driver's views, leaving the human player to use the Kinect to control the robots for the end game. Since we would not be able to use technology to save ourselves (the human controls) we will be frantically trying to accomplish what we can before the world ends, hence, the crazy human actions required to get the robot to cooperate in the endgame via Kinect.

Yes, it's a crazy theory, but we shall see what becomes of this (or not) tomorrow.

Hi! Congrats on your first post! I'm Andrew (SuperNerd256), and you will soon get to know me for my welcomes. To show you an example:


WELCOME TO CHIEF DELPHI LAFONDAONFIRE! :D

I know you were a long time lurker before, but now you're an official lurker!

Good luck this season, and enjoy CD!

Re: 2012 Game?
 

Hmm, one last minute theory.

Luminaries. Flash. What flashes with lumination? Lightbulbs. What has FIRST been pushing on teams recently? LED lightbulbs. What are heavy? LED lighbulbs. What are supposedly unbreakable? LED lightbulbs. What would be an interesting gamepiece? LED lightbulbs.

Re: 2012 Game?
 

I doubt they will have LED light bulbs as a game piece because of the fact that you won't be able to see it during the match so there is no use for it.

I believe that the game will have the word flash in it or it will constitute some aspect of speed or using the field lights as the flashing object.

Just a thought. :]

Re: 2012 Game?
 

less then 12 hours to go and i cant wait to see what the game is going to be like this year i think it has to do with lighting something up or disarm something under water or above water.. or it can be a search and rescuer mission or it also could be a launch controll mission

Re: 2012 Game?

Re: 2012 Game?
 

Last guess.

2006 with a twist, hopefully a hanging endgame, maybe some obstacles in the field.

Re: 2012 Game?
 

football is my guess. FOOTBALL with some sort of light obstacle included. FINAL ANSWER?
YES.
