Hate to say it, but I doubt the field will be much different from this...I'd say to expect the same demensions of the field and the same player stations. All we can do is cross our finger for at least a stationary obstical...

Also, take a look at the "Alternating Match..." text in the upper-left. Alternating is spelled incorrectly.

My father is a mentor on the Bishop Guertin Team 811, and tonight at the get together at Dean Kamen's house he said that Kamen denied all of the rumors like these.

Maybe he hasn't seen them all.....but I doubt it. These are probably close though, as Woody Flowers gave a hint that was the quadratic formula usually used with projectiles.

We'll know tomorrow

It's the same way in the old field drawing. Nice try team222badbrad but we've got you beat. Pretty quickly too.

That Confirmed Game Information thread sounded pretty good though. A lot of thinking must have gone into that one, unless it's true of course....

Only a few more hours.

I think we have found out this years game early...

The Quad in Quadratic stands for the 4 squares in the center and the formula is used to calculate how to shoot the footballs.

You just made up the game early.

Ditto. But it's more embarrasing when it's caught on a webcam for ever and ever... or at least till I decide to delete the screenshots

Actually I don;t think thos two layouts could be less alike.

1. Your field has the scoring zones in the middle and the start zones on the ends. The FIRST Layout has scoring zones in the end and robot start zones on the outside of the middle.

2. Your field is 48' long, FIRST's is 54'

3. you have balls in the players station, FIRST doesn't even have balls.

4. You have no ramp.

5. You don't have separate player's station.

I could go on, but truth be told if he can claim this looks like FIRST's field, I can claim that the half circles were taken from the rainbows in my lucky charms idea.
