Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!

A ROSE, KISSED SINGER GREAT = Seal

A DINNER, MISSED = Fast

HOLDING WEIGHT = Rope

This image,

is of three push pins, red, yellow and blue, plus a single red tack.

It's a tack. Attack.

The song lyric is "lift you up" and "let you down".

I do a lot of kayak fishing at the Hampton Roads bridge tunnel. I see Navy SEALS training quite often. When they attack, the technique they use is fast roping.

This year's game will have three teams, yellow, blue and red. It will involve ascending or descending a rope in a controlled manner. The red team will either be attacking the yellow and blue teams, or will be attacked by them.

Has there ever been a game where the game element is rope?

How likely is it that a three CIM motor gearbox is necessary to act as a winch to either lift or lower the weight of a FIRST robot in a reasonable amount of time?
