maybe our minibots will be deployed in some sort of water filled container for the end game... making it not a full on water game... but having a water element...

i'm hoping our minibots do something more involved than just climbing a pole this year (altho that was an interesting challenge at the time)... but i wouldn't want them interacting with the host bots in the main field area (i'm not sure all 6 davids could survive against 6 goliaths)... maybe they'll have sectioned off areas or an elevated platform... where they play football.

Fingers crossed.

Can we put miniGUNs on our robots to "sink" the miniBOATs?

Maybe they aren't giving us a game hint in order to for us to speculate on wilder and wilder ideas, getting farther from the truth, so that when the kickoff comes around, we will all be so shocked that we have a mass heart attack, keel over and they don't have to do anything for the rest of the year. The only reason that they would want to not have to do anything would be because the regionals and fields required a lot of set up, and since pools require a lot of set up, it must be the water game.

obviously.

Edit: I forgot something. Since we will keel over, it must be a water game because ships have keels

Several Ideas for water game ......
heavy field and setup time
possbile game tht elevated and rocks maybe
20th yr of titanic

i like the idea of miniBoats racing around the field which a sensor is mounted to the host bot and controled by the kinect by human signals

I'm sorry to say that it will be the 100 year anniversary of the titanic sinking and the 15 anniversary of the movie coming out.


Also...

Well with 2 days and 20 hours remaining until kickoff it seems like we will not get a second game hint

No way, I'm still hopeful! They must give us more than one hint! We will demand it! We will riot and picket! We will boycott (ok maybe not)!

Has there ever been only one hint? I seem to remember not...

The lack of a hint is a hint in itself.

That is funny but imagine if the hint #2 is release on Friday the day before kickoff
