Coopertition award hint?

I'm curious. How did they come to that conclusion?

From "The wooden beams..." blog post, and some unknown knowledge of the maximum volume of a pallet. I wish i could tell you who, or where, but my memory is slipping me and running a quick search didn't yield the source.

Hmmm... that'd be interesting to do. We could google the volume of a pallet for balls then look up the mass per pallet ratio and deduct the game element! Unless the element is ridiculous.

But wouldn't we need to know the number of elements on each pallet? Assuming you're trying to get the mass of each individual element from the mass of the pallet, and then try and find a possible element with that approximate mass...

[Guppy294]

Couldn't we find the number of elements on the pallet based on the volume of the pallet? I'm saying we could find the total volume each pallet could hold, then we could look up each plausible game element's weight and volume and calculate how much each pallet would weigh with each game element filling it. But then again, other game elements could infect each pallet making that impossible without knowing the mass of just the manipulated game element (avoiding the term ball because for all we know, its a frisbee). But it's still worth a shot? It wouldn't be 100% accurate by any means, but its better than nothing.

Lets do it.

Oh and also, in response to Supernerd256 above, you can call me Tuesday if I can call you Super!

[Guppy294]

Seriously? We could divide up the labor, if we assign each person the volume and mass for a game element, then someone for the pallet volume and weight of the pallet, we could finally do some formula mashing to find out the most plausible game element. Any suggestions for game objects?

Great! From now on, you're Tuesday, and I'm Super, although that sounds "oddly self-serving".

-Quote from Spock, Star Trek 2009 movie (Greta movie, though original series was better)

By original, I mean the old ones are better than the new ones, not just the original series being the first one.

Getting off topic now...though, it is a speculation/possible hint thread, I guess there never is any real topic to these.

Dean is probably watching us from his cozy mansion in Manchester, laughing at our insanity, and at how much we manipulate and over-analyze the simplest, unimportant things into such a big discussion.

He may also be thinking to himself: "Fools, Star Trek DS9 was the best." (Though I am a TNG fan)

Don't forget staring at the full game field in his helicopter hanger.

[Guppy294]

back to the topic at hand, who's willing to help overanalyze the pallets' weights and volume to attempt to discover the playable game element?

And let the helicopter remain exposed to the elements? I think not. That was likely a temporary set-up which was removed after the video was filmed.
