First I would like to say that I do not believe there is a weight reduction for this game. In the north, they have weight reductions every spring when the ground thaws so that large trucks do not destroy the roads. We have enough torn up roads just from the freezing and thawing without large semis crushing them. So there are thousands of instances of weight reduction on roads, it is likely a coincident that picture was found.

I was thinking about game piece volume for the 3 numbers. What if there are 3 different sized game pieces and they gave us the volume for them? Those numbers seem pretty specific. Here was a calculation on volume with in^3 converting to the diameter of a sphere in inches:

144.4561403508771929 in^3 = 6.50997 inches (diameter)
31.13907284769211920 in^3 = 3.90333 inches (diameter)
3.943186131848665063 in^3 = 1.96012 inches (diameter)

Now the numbers don't work out to a nice whole number, but maybe the game pieces have dimples or are in a 3D polygon shape. If so, these could be some of the smallest game pieces yet. The ~1.96 in (dia.) is slightly larger than a golf ball.

With the objects being on the smaller side of things, I lean away from a stacking game. Certainly lean away from a shooting game (unless the numbers are the area of the targets). It seems to lean towards a placement game with smaller containers than are customary to past FRC games.

Have a Merry Christmas!
