Re: Game Hint #1

"Shoot the Moon"...anyone in here play Hearts?

http://www.wikihow.com/Shoot-the-Moon-in-Hearts

Quote:
The card game of hearts is unusual in that the winner is the individual who accumulates the fewest number of points! Point cards are the queen of spades (13) and any heart (1 apiece). However, if a player can capture every point card, they will in fact collect no points, while giving 26 points to every other player--this is called "shooting the moon".

Maybe it's a game where you have to collect as many scoring objects as you can, and the player/alliance/?? with the least points wins, but if you end up with all of the points, you automatically win the round? Or, you would want to try and get as many points as you can while keeping them away from your opponents. Maybe the field would be divided in half/thirds/however the alliances/bots are set up, and robots could travel between each section. They would have to try and obtain all of the scoring objects while keeping other bots from taking their objects...kind of like capture the flag, I guess. In the event that one alliance cannot obtain all of the points, the alliance with the least amount of points wins.

I have the feeling that I didn't explain that very well...
