I think a cool game would be involve moving of pillars (like fence posts) to form a wall (hint#1) in order to prevent the opposing team from collection an objective (capture the flag style).
As for the FIRST logo in hint #2 I like the idea that it's just team members working together, but I think the literal "chain" inference is better. Maybe the posts can be linked together to make them harder to remove?

I'm a rookie mentor. Looking back at the 2010 hints I can't believe people figured that one out!
