Re: Next Year's Game?

I seem to be the only person who didn't enjoy Aim High. I've always found ball games to be pretty boring. I much prefer having strange and unique game pieces. Some suggestions I've heard before, and some new ones I've come up with.

PVC pipe with steel bearings inside to shift their weight around.
Pool Noodles
Rope(score points by hanging lengths of rope, and I could see some teams designing a robot to actually tie knots so other teams can't descore)
Frisbees
2 liter bottles
rocks, yes, real rocks of all shapes and sizes, score is based on weight (Rubble Rumble?)
flashlights (if they are turned on it is a scoring piece, if it is turned off it is used to "descore" the opponents)
sheets of thin lexan
