Re: Official 2005 Clue Thread

Ok, I'm thinking about this 'Pi' and 'look very closely' and the fact it's between 'You' and 'Me'. Also, the speculation about moving IR beacons.

I'm guessing that there will be some sort of IR beam (look very closely) moving about in a circular pattern (Pi) in the middle of the field (between 'You' and 'Me'). Oh! From a large tetra, maybe?

I'm also guessing that capturing, or tagging this beam somehow would get you team a higher score, but somehow hinder your teammates. (Therefore helping the other team somewhat. Get it? Purple!)
Maybe it would reverse the color sensors on both team's robots, causing them to see red 'bots as blue 'bot, and vice versa?

That's my look at it. It's got to be some way to get extra points, I guessing.

edit: oh, wait. the game was already revieled. my bad.
