Lightbulb The Hint in the Blog

Frank's recent blog post about something new for 2015 can be found here.

Quote:
Wait. Isn’t the new game always, well, new? Yes, but that’s the point of this note. Every year we try to do a little something different. Sometimes a lot of something different. No one should look at any rules from prior years and think “They would never change that”, because we may. Number of teams on an alliance, number of alliances in a match, match length, bumper rules, field surfaces, robot size, every element from prior year games is carefully considered anew every year. You should make no assumptions. This is all we can say, and all we plan to say on this. All will be revealed on January 3, 2015!*

*Looking at this, if I were a team, and knew nothing about the 2015 game, I might be nervous. Knowing the game, though, I think there’s nothing to be nervous about. OK, almost nothing.
Let's analyze this. If we split the string every 7th character, then run an anagram decoder on the first result, it decodes to tiwai. Google defines tiwai as:

Quote:
Tiwai Point
Tiwai Point lies at the entrance to Bluff Harbour on the southern coast of the South Island of New Zealand. A spit which extends from the western end of the Awarua Plain, it lies between Awarua Bay to the north and Foveaux Strait to the south. Wikipedia
Another thing to note is that the 7th result of the 7 letter split is the word "Yes"

Coincidence? I think not.
