"A DINNER MISSED, HOLDING WEIGHT"
Quite often dinner is the largest meal of the day. Missing it may mean loosing out on the biggest caloric intake of the day. In the past couple years, the End Game has been a HUGE determining factor in the outcome of a match.
I'm guessing that the End Game this year may not be any different.
To put the clue into play here:
The End Game will have a Balance Platform/Scale in the middle. The End Game is won by the Alliance that places, or stacks, the most weight on their side, thus tipping the scale in their favor. If you're caught "HOLDING WEIGHT", you miss "DINNER", or, the bonus points.

I never really involve myself too much in game hints, but, looking at this train of thought could relate to "raising the bar"....Robots were left "holding weight" (suspending from the bar in the center of the field), and aside from 190, it often meant the possibility of missing out on capping a goal. All the points have been made. Mobile goals, large balls or bonuses, timed release of game pieces.
That said, I wouldn't mind some rework of 2004 or 2005, both were great to play and watch.
