Re: [Official 2005 Game Design] Game Elements and Subtasks
I wasn't around in '99, but I've seen and heard many stories about the Puck. I'm intruiged by the idea of a mobile object robots can climb on and score. It would only be worth 10 points with a robot on top on the edge of the field, but worth 50 if in the center of the field. Would make for some good pushing matches, and all the more challenging if the thing can move.

I'd also like to see some odd game object, like orange safety cones. Cones are worth 5 points only if standing up, and worth 15 points when stacked on top of each other. I know I'll get lynched for this, but I liked the time multipliers of 2001. Adds a very interesting element to strategy
