Now that's sounds like a realistic way to interpret the hint... In my experience, the hints are never about the game or game objects, usually it's something more obscure where even if you figured it out, it gives no advantage.

I would think the Kinect must play a bigger role in the game than last year. If I were FIRST, I'd be really disappointed if a major sponsor like Microsoft donated an item to each team, only to have it not used by 99% of teams.

I just can't envision 6 teams trying to use it at the same time, perhaps like Clinton says, there will be a Kinect mode this year and one robot from each alliance battle for some final bonus points at the end.
