Why??? Because Dave, in creating the 2005 game, gave an absolutely blatant clue towards the 2006 game. Think about these tetras for a second: 4 triangles connected on each edge. Alliances of 4 on a Triangular field! It has to be it!

With this comes the style: a triangular field would be difficult to maintain aquatically. So there I would hold off til 2007, if anybody would like to start a thread about that. However, anothe rpossibility is the Krispy Kreme arena. Circular. It would have a hole in the middle where we'd put the human players. In a donut shape, it could be aquatic. The human players would fish little things out and hand them to the robots. It would be marvelous.
Okay, so here's the 2007 thread. What's going to happen in two years?
