I fairly certain that only the GDC and FIRST senior management know the game before kickoff.
Some key volunteers find out about field elements and gamepieces in advance (starting a few weeks ago), but these adventurous souls must:
1) have no team affiliation, and 2) sign a secrecy agreement.
I know the guy who does this mostly thankless job for the St. Louis region -- he's building whatever it is in his basement right now
(and cursing the incomplete and ever changing documentation), so I won't be visiting his house until after kick-off.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
