Sounds like stack attack to me.

I hope they use something small and inexpensive like this.

In all honesty, would bowling really be all that exciting in a game?

If knocking down pins with robots is anything like knocking down bins with robots, yes.

i think this game would add a different level of strategy that FTC games have not yet seen. as for if it would be exciting or not who knows? :) it may not even be bowling but it could be cool! we will just have to wait for saturday i guess!

Perhaps there is 1 set of pins, and red/blue pins and teams have to try and have the most of their color pins left standing at the end and teams can only shoot down opposing team pins with discs. Maybe end game = a rolling ball that knocks pins down and teams have 30 seconds to replace the pins. Idk just throwing some ideas out there....

I'll get working on protoboarding laser sights then. :)

Just a short week left in the educated guessing game with the release on September 10, 2011.

There are some really wild and interesting ideas being posted. I'd suggest that some of you post these ideas as well as any other that you may have in Ken's Blog post asking for input as they have already begun the process of designing next year's game.

Questions
Hey FTC Nation - believe it or not we're about to start brainstorming game design ideas for the 2012/2013 season!
 
I love this part of the process - blank sheet of paper, a huge variety of ideas, and working with some really cool (and talented) people.
 
We may share some hints about this year's game too - with a creative bunch like this the ideas will be flying...
 
If you have any crazy ideas - send them in, maybe we'll use some for the new game.

Maybe our last hint before Kickoff was just posted on Ken's blog. http://firsttechchallenge.blogspot.com/

Good luck to all the teams and enjoy your kickoff events (if you are attending one).

Team 2843 is honored that Ken has chosen to showcase our team colors in the hint posted today. (I admit the green isn't quite our shade, but the red, yellow and blue aren't too far off - we will take what we can get).

Can't wait for Saturday!

I just finished the animation explaining the 2012 game rules. The Game Design Team did a great job coming up with a VERY challenging game this year!

Of course the rules are top secret until Saturday afternoon, but they let me release this image.
