Re: [FTC]: Game Hints???

note some awkward language in the posts:

Quote:
We may share some hints about this year's game too - with a creative bunch like this the ideas will be flying...
The irony between the picture of a bird that can't fly and the use of flying... could be something to do with having to shoot something in order to score it?

Quote:
Thanks to all that flew into Manchester from around the country.
There it is again...

Quote:
Apple cider donuts, apple pies, cider
When i think apple cider/apple products, I dont think of donuts first... odd...

the next one is weird but as Nate Knauss said, its a KingPIN motorcycle... could be a stretch but who knows...

Quote:
Many of the fisherman had to pull their traps and either remove their boats or otherwise ensure their safety.
could be strategy related... trapping again? rolling goals? trapping opponents in a special area? the way these fields have been going i wouldnt be surprised if there was some kind of lowering barrier....

... and finally beacons on some large objects. To me the pins might work, because you can put a donut on a pin but who knows... notice the use of the word "cooler"... who knows what that might mean?

just my thoughts... its all speculation though haha

EDIT: "Old and New" could mean a lot of things... Recycling game pieces ie hockey pucks from face off for a Regolith hockey game.... Atlas ball/softballs from hanging around for a "bowling" game... Many different choices there....

Also... Could the record point towards a new material? Vinyl perhaps? Idk it seems to be heat deformed so that could be showing off a property of a new material idk... Vinyl could also hold a pattern so maybe we could make our own tires to work better on Regolith???
