I think a water match could be done, although it would be hard to set up.
The robot inspection would had to include throwing it in a pool to make sure nothing gets fryed...and I bet many things would fry...lol. Then what happens if your bot dies during a match? Who's the poor person who gets to go for a swim to get it?
But besides the robots part of it, think about how they would set-up the playing fields. Some how I think setting up 40-foot long pools in a bunch of hockey arena's wouldn't be the easiest thing (or cheapest) to do.
Not that I wouldn't mind seeing this happen - I doubt it will.
But, I think a water obsicacle could be done.
A couple years ago where there was the bridge in the middle of the field, why not change the bride to a moat (say 5" deep).
Something like a moat would certainly make people think about more design possibilites...Would be interesting...
But hey, could always put SOME water everywhere on the field...Enough so you could build a 'boat' or something with wheels...Be interesting to see that.
