Re: Universal Spy Hand Signals

I'd like to put two cents in for making arm motions vs hand motions. Arm motions will be easier to see by the drivers. But, they will also be easy to see by people in the stands. That will allow spectators to get a better glimpse into the game.

Having Universal Spy signals are good. It can be printed on a card and given to teams (and spectators!!) that don't hang out on CD. That way the drive team can learn it and be ready for the matches.

I'm hoping that we'll be able to get to a common format, I'd hate to get to an event and learn that there are 4 or 5 different arm motions that teams need to learn. "Wait, so the hand on head isn't ..... ?!?" isn't something to learn after a match loss.
