i apologize, i should have known that there was a large majority that were not at the Championship. the MC of the Einstein field had a teaser for us all. it was a handheld board that had red, blue, and green lights on it.

he stated that FIRST has decided that the game was too easy for the robots on the field. so that in autonomous, the "green" light would turn red. then during the first period, it would turn blue. the next period it would be green. then in the final period it would flash between red and blue. he said, your cameras have the ability of reading all of these color, but will they? everyone thought he was serious at this point, and you could that the teams on the field were thrown back.

then he revealed that it was a joke. everyone was relieved. but he said, "there is always next year!" he also said this a couple other times between matches. so, my first explanation behind the three alliances from the three colors comes from event at the Championship.
