SUMMARY:

Many people believe that a 2v2v2 is possible, or some change in alliance number. Or change in how the Championships operate. "Eliminations matches" are now in the Admin manual as "Playoff matches."

"1999 footage" was not 1999 footage after all. It was from 1997, same match, different angle. When someone commented about it on the FRC blog, Frank commented "Whoops." Most people seem to think it was sarcastic- FIRST couldn't make that big of mistake in people's minds.

Another many people believe that the emphasis on the recycle bin means many past FRC games may be combined to create a new one. A question on this one was about veterans having too much of an advantage.

"Switching sides"- half-way through match you score on the opposite side of the field OR more coopertition and after the half the other alliance tries to finish what the other has started and vice versa.

The hint may simply be hinting at the name of the game, game names often include rhyming and alliteration.

Lots of speculation about the triangle paperclip and recycle symbol representing a Delta symbol- Meaning triangular game pieces. Also, LOTS about hockey. Another idea- two different shapes of game pieces (never been done before, so it would be a big change) Yet another idea, football related.

See Post #347 for results of past game hints.

People thought they could see white floor below Frank, meaning a new floor material- This was proved to not be true.

Andymark says the normal field "has the fit and function for the 2015 game"

Field barrier looks higher- see post #403 (and a couple others) explaining it is a camera angle trick.

Long boxes in KOP could be light bars or (foam) hockey pucks.

Change in size in robots- For example, same base, less weight.

Autonomous at end of match? Longer or maybe shorter game matches?

Maybe less reasons for penalties or less intricate specifications about gameplay to make refs' job easier


Gotta run- Christmas Eve and so much to do with so little time. Hope this is adequate, somebody feel free to copy and add if you find it necesary. Merry Christmas!
