Water game

[Ninja_Bait]

Can I just /facepalm this thread? No, maybe that's a little mean.

You forgot the big 100th anniversary of the Titanic! I agree with TofuRama, though, that there is more evidence of an exploration-themed or rather unnavigable field than of a field with water.

And honestly, who could tolerate a game where the field wouldn't stop leaking? Because this is FIRST, and a lot of professional design work and manufacturing care always gets turned into a duct-tape mess by volunteers and high schoolers.

I enjoy the water game speculation as much as the next guy (or maybe poster), but it's obviously impractical and absurd.

I don't think I'll ever give up on a water game idea...haha

Give it up, it will NEVER happen. End of story!

To Admins/Moderaters/Brandon Martus-

Maybe I'm complaining too much, but can we please make a specific subforum purely for water game talk? Sure, the water game talk was humorous when andy baker or dave lavery cracked a joke about it years ago, but now, it's quite frankly annoying, old, and filling Chief Delphi with unnecessary, unhelpful threads. CD is supposed to be about helping people, right?

If anything, could someone please move this thread from CD Forum Support to Chit-Chat?

Just my thoughts/suggestions.

Then let me just help things along --


- water game!!!!

Note that this is being said while I am sitting in a half-full bathtub in one of the salon cabins aboard a friends Oyster 825 sailboat that is currently traversing the Panama Canal. Arrayed around me are 116 one-litre bottles of Evian, all on display beneath a huge portrait-size poster of Niagara Falls. And I am wearing water wings.

116 bottles, you say? I wonder if that number has any significance.

I also noted the drink of choice - you think we are naivE?

Enjoy your vacation. Take the next 242 days off. See you in August.

I'm totally joking but this must mean that there will be 116 floating game pieces on a half full field that is shaped like New York (right under Niagara Falls). Robots must fit through a small gap or fly (panama canal and water wings).

Ridiculous enough?

Add in an excuse for robots wearing tiaras and drive teams wearing tights and you're almost there.

Well, three years of Mandarin were lost on me. For all of you too lazy to use teh Google, that's just Chinese for Princess.

A scissorlift is not what I expected to see at all last year though. Very cool.
