FIRST things
FIRST.
Wonderful to see all of the posts from new CD members.
Those who admitted to not reading all of the posts = good.
Those who expected others to correct their laziness = bad.
Netiquette, people!
I really should be wrapping gifts right now.
If Justin is close, and I think he is, then I would credit:

Not "NEW TO FIRST GAMES". Aim High (2006) used the Offense/Defense periods, so we may see a return to that. That may be the "change" mentioned in the clue.
They have Hockey in New Hampshire, don't they?
Supplying teams with enough game pieces in the KoP (the long tube) would also eliminate past complaints about obtaining said game pieces.
I think the "Whoops" was indeed sarcastic.
FIRST ain't stoopid.
While I think the recycle bin might be important, (It also has the triangle, delta = change), I am not sure how it would work. It may be a second game piece that multiplies your score if you can stack them. A recycle of Stack Attack (2003).
In that game, teams were rewarded for stacking the "bins", but in the end, they were so easy to tip over that the endgame of "King of the Hill" on top of the ramps trumped the stacking of the bins.
Having two different game pieces would require two different manipulator systems.
This would challenge teams on a decision-making level about resource choices.
I need to find the wrapping paper, tape, and a good pair of scissors.
One problem with pucks, like Ultimate Ascent, is the Real Time scoring model.
Like professional sports, this aspect is important in creating a game with tension for the players and spectators.
The game will likely need to incorporate this.
So, how would the pucks be "counted"?
(Stacking recycle bins would be obvious to a spectator and the scorers.)
You know, gift bags are easier than wrapping paper.
Also, going along with the sports model, will the rules address Robot Concussions?
