2006 game hints?

[Birdman1011395]

Don't know about other regionals (and I don't believe this has been brought up before), but Dave Lavery at the VCU regional said something along the lines of "It's snowing outside, and it gives me some ideas". Or something to that effect and made mention of how he got an idea from the Richmond Science Museum for 2005's competition.

If one takes this at face vaulue a power based object could be used. Maybe a synthetic snow covers the playing field for reduced traction. But the problem could be for snow plows or a similar device. By thinking WAY to much into this hint I could mean that 2006 will require the stacking of irregularly shaped objects.

Of course there have been other regionals since then, so can anyone remember any hints he gave out at the ending ceremony, for other regionals? Also if anyone from the VCU regional can remember the phrase please post it in better from than I have.
