That happened in 2001. Some teams design allowed them help another team balance on the ramp.

Re: 2006 game hints?

okay here is an updated hint list. i would edit the other hint list if i could but i can't.


Possible Truths
? Maybe an element of last year’s game will be in it
? Relay race type thing
? Points by time
? Maybe a horse type game
? 3 ways to score
? teams working together un-opposed to wrack up as many points
? vision by camera in game
? objects obstructing view of driver
? rods or sticks
? fine motor skills for robot
? different robots starting at different times
? event causing things to be released all over field (possibly packing peanuts or confetti)
? shelter areas for protection from something
? autonomous mode at end of game
? a difficult surface in the field somewhere, probably in the middle.
? Lower, more restrictive budget/more reliance on KOP
? Shipment of Corechart programming software with each KOP
? possibly slick objects that are hard to pick up
? Ramps

Possible hoaxes
? underwater game (picture of waterproof control thingy hoax)
? no metal
? no fasteners
? no water of any kind
? no snow


thank you to whomever i borrowed ideas from. as senora mireles always says "muchos puntos en mi corazon" keep giving ideas and ill keep posting every time i get 5 more ideas

Re: 2006 game hints?

umm... lets get back on topic: 2006 Game Hints!

has Dave dropped any new hints lately or has anyone had an epiphany about the meaning of something lately?

Here here. Lets get back on track. By the way, nice photo, the last time I saw some technology underwater was when I dropped my old computer into an oil drum full of water at the dump. It was cool. No sharks however...

Easy, bro. No hard feelings. We're on the same side. Just simmer down...this is a pretty welcoming Internet community to newbies, but there is a line, and you may be dancing close to it. I don't disagree with you...but the point may not need to be made.

A suggestion:

Continue making great contributions to the thread. Leave the police work to the mods.

It's not all that dark. We use IR to see clearly. Didn't you get the memo?

BTW, the switch is right behind you on the wall next to the bin of batons.

Re: 2006 game hints?

OK folks. Can anyone explain why Dave's hint from this thread was never discussed?

http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...7&postcount=14

A "Song that never ends" implies a never ending circle, or a ring. My guess is that we'll be playing a form of ringtoss.

First a hurricane, and now ringtoss. Will the madness never cease!?!?
