Clues about 2010 posted yet?

[asmo0901]

Has anyone seen or heard any clues about 2010 FRC comp. and if not when and where will the clue appear!

[Chris is me]

I doubt they've even finished designing the game yet ^_^

Trust me, I'm as eager as anyone to find out, but clues usually come around november or december.

The game hints don't usually start till the fall.

However, soon, dlavery will start an official "You Design the Game" thread in which the GDC takes input from Chief Delphi members on what they want to see in a game.

Bananas, jello, clowns, water, ice robots.

That's the standard lineup of hints that we may as well get out of the way now.

Go enjoy the summer. It's been what, 3 weeks since Championship and according to Bill, the GDC has met a time or two and is working on something that is understandably top secret, and they haven't gotten our feedback yet (we'll know when they ask for it). Go have fun, do an offseason, and come back in the fall.

Hey, that "Ice Game" for 2009 turned out to be pretty much right. Regolith has the same basic effect...

Whatever the game, you can bet they are going to encourage increased use of the power of the new cRio and vision system. This system was provided to encourage more advanced use of vision, sensor I/O, and programming. I aniticipate an autonomous period, and perhaps even teleop game, that greatly rewards good vision and sensors.

In next year's game I want to see something fly, or fall. The hints could then be out of this world.

Usually it comes out in December.....but you never know...

Yes, search all of dlavery's posts. Every single one of them. Then look at all possible other meanings of the words. By the time you finish this come back and the GDC might have designed the game.

Seriously though, when a game hint is officially posted you will know, just look for the rapidly growing game hint threads full of people reposting things said back in post 25 for the next 400 posts.

By the way, Im not mocking you, merely suggesting an activity that might help alleviate your desire for game hints while simultaneously giving you a better grasp on the English language.

Andrew has it down.

Honestly... enjoy your off-season events, maybe start some new projects with your team. Catch up on sleep. Read about something new. You've got until December to worry about things other than game hints.

Well, actually - if anyone with time on their hands and a love for searches and for reading, were to take you up on this suggestion, they would find themselves paying attention, learning, chuckling, perhaps laughing out loud, and thinking a little differently by the time they had finished. And that would be just one post, much less finding the past hint threads, the you design the game threads, and then reading different posts in various threads that Dave has written.

At the end of the summer and the return to school and the famous, What Did You Do This Summer, essay for English - a well-informed and slightly mischievous writer could craft an excellent paper of interest and delight.

Hey, Aidan, wasn't that the 2011 hint?

I also think there will be minimum need of a human player.
Maybe a new hybrid combo.
