Also for the 2001 game Diabolical Dynamics the subtitle was "Robots race against the clock" you're telling me none of the challenges before that had a time limit? How did they end? Can someone check this for me, did you have to score a certain amount to end the game?

In 2001 only 1 "alliance" played at a time. The 4 robots had to work together to complete certain tasks (balancing goals on bridge, etc.), and when they were complete the match would end automatically. Teams would get point bonuses based on the time left on the clock. This is different than other years since teams WERE racing against the clock to get points.
As for hockey, 2009 had "ice" surface, and the idea of controlling a puck was used in 1999 Double Trouble. So FRC has actually had hockey games before.
