Re: 2012 Game?

Water game scenario and the LUNACY corrollary: just as LUNACY "simulated" low gravity with regolith, could water (higher density) be simulated with a layer of small objects on the arena floor making maneuvering a challenge? Then, the "water" pieces could stick to the game pieces (weak velcro?) and simulate the challenge of manipulating a "wet" gamepiece? Just like water can get into small crevaces, the game's "water" pieces would get all into the machinery of the robots. Quite a "simulated" challenge. Need to design robot with some seal against that?

Would like to see how the arena caretakers and shippers could manage the "simulated water" throughout the season.

Just hoping to promote the idea of a "water" game. . .
