Talking The Inevitable WATER thread
So....water or no water next year?
Large tank, small moat, medium bucket with scoring objects in it?

What do YOU think?

Maybe the mysterious changes in the kit of parts will enable the bot to be submersible.

Probably unlikely, but entertaining to muse about.

It would definitely require a new playing field configuration that is rumored to be coming about this year.

I don't think having the playing field double as a swimming pool would be practical. However, if the robots had to manipulate an object into or out of a bucket of water... that would be cool.

I don't think it's going to happen though.

No water, ever, period

Nobody is going to let a team build a sample field at a gym, or buisness that contains a big pool of water. Reigonals are the same most people get uptight about the shoes you wear on a gym floor tell them you are putting water on top of it and.......
Not going to happen
