Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
An interesting point was brought up while talking to one of my teammates:
If the game hint is indeed a track where balls are to be scored, it would be too easy to descore them (like in 2003's Stack Attack), whether on purpose or by accident; a simple bump could kick the ball out because the track isn't "deep" enough for the 6" diameter or so balls we're assuming.
True, the GDC could make a rule making it illegal to descore the balls (like the ringers in 2007), but there would be too many incidences of accidental descoring, making it a pain for the referees.
So I'm revising my guess that it's still a track for holding balls, but as a dispenser/autoloader rather than where the robots will be trying to score.
