going off of last years use of an obscure and contrived pop culture reference (david spade) i think we should apply that to this clue. so lets start with the diamond plateing. here is 3 probable options:

*Swedish pop star Amy Diamond released a CD in May of '05 (5-05) and track number 5 is called "one of the ones". implys to me that there will be a type of gamepeice that there is only one of durring each match.

*Micheal Diamond born in 1965 is a member of the band Beastie Boys who recently released a cd titled "To the 5 Boroughs" the boroughs refer to the NY boroughs leading me to believe that the game will have 5 distinct areas

*Dustin Diamond is better known as Screech from Saved by the Bell. in part of the series he has a robot named Kevin (5 letters). Kevin was a more humanoid robot than has been commonly seen at FIRST competitions, so this year the robot will have to meet certain requirements to look humanoid.

But maybe im wrong about the pop cluture references, and maybe there is something to this whole water deal. in the royal british navy "HMS Diamond" was the name given to a 5th rate ship and had 32 guns. the game must consist of a total of 32 points that the alliences fight over.
