Re: Possible 2008 Competition?

Instead of the water game that everyone is bananas about, I would like to see a game where the robots aren't allowed to touch certain areas of the floor.

When my brother tried to describe to me 'Raising the Bar', I envisioned some sort of jungle gym, instead of just a 10 ft high bar. However, the idea has never escaped me... instead of robots driving on the ground for the competition, they must somehow grasp onto a jungle gym, or perhaps a ceiling of chain link fence. Perhaps this could be one element of the game, such as the bonus... any team on the chain link fence for the entirety of the game gets a 50 point bonus.

Certainly others could improve upon this idea, or fit a game around it (hint dave).
