I mean, the guesses are just that.. guesses. But do you think they would keep it the way it is, or try and change it for the simple reason of being a total surprise?
Also, what would you do if you were FIRST and that happened??

Of course not!
One reason being... until the curtain goes up, no one KNOWS the guess is accurate. I mean... it's not like teams are out there designing robots to play your "drum game". Are there? So no one has a "head-start", and there is no problem.
Another reason being... Do you have any idea how much time/effort goes into developing a FIRST game? I'm pretty sure they don't just have "extra games" lying around for such an emergency. Evem if hypothetically they could create a new game in a much shortened period of time, not only would they have to rewrite the new manual, but they'd have to rebuild/reorder the new playing fields (6+ of them), not to mention the large amounts of $$$ that would be "wasted" on the pre-developed, now obsolete game.
No way... no how.
