Re: Bill's Blog, 5/11/11 "Wait, Did he say pool"
If they go to longer matches, it's really going to be a stretch to have robots competing as actively as they are now on the same batteries... maybe they'll be giving us some new, higher capacity batteries as well?
I can't see them doing anything with ice, as people have mentioned on here... It would simply be too expensive to create/maintain a mini hockey rink in non-hockey venues. Likewise, they'd have a hell of a time convincing some venues (like basketball stadiums) to allow them to have large vats of water on the field for a water game - not to mention difficulties from filling up the pool between matches as water spills out!
I'd say it's much more likely they'll have a game object that we have to throw or shoot (maybe something like a wiffle ball?) through air currents (air currents... water currents... references to water?). How cool would it be to have 100 wiffle balls spilling across the field, with 6 foot high target goals surrounded by rotating fans so the currents are constantly changing?
