What do you want to see in this years game?

[JohnSchneider]

I'd like a football game. The complications of an asymmetrical ball would be neat

But given that we had a ball game last year and a tube game the year before we're more than likely getting a stacking game of some sort.

Quick field reset, this year the field being easy to reset meant more matches which means more fun

[Alpha Beta]

Traffic Cones, Beach Balls, and a Bernoulli Blower

Water Game!!

In reality, I'd like to see an obstacle course of some sort that involved climbing, lifting, stacking, shooting, carrying, placing, etc.

I'd like to see a game that can be played in many various ways. Different strategies, more than one way of doing things. A few general goals, but rules that allow creativity to inspire millions of different designs. Games are strategy based more than robot based, and each match can be played differently.

Another coopertition aspect that makes you work with your opponents, but not be worth as much as the coop bridge.

Something present in eliminations would be nice too.

I definitely like the idea of being able to play the game different ways. However this could be too complicated for the Spectator's.

A simple, and Quick game that can be played differently would be Ideal. and would be spectator friendly.

I predict some sort of stacking, but it's hard to predict anything right now.

more defensive play and a more entertaining end game.

Flying minibots...

And I know this will never happen because it isn't safe, economical, or even the best idea...but it would be entertaining.

Wiffle balls, hill climb, 3 robot balance on a round ramp

I agree with a couple of the people before me about a hill climb/obstacle course. There are a lot of real world applications to abot that can simply carry something over rough terrain. I was thinking a speed aspect would also be cool, ie you get extra points if you ferry a gamepiece to the other side in under ten seconds.

Another idea is variable terrain, possibly a buch of pieces that can be easily knocked down to incur penalties. Or small domes that can be moved around before each match and locked into place, so as to create obstacles which bots either have to go over around. A small variation on this might be urban terrain, ie doors, stairs, walls, bumps/curbs.

Something else that would be cool is the other team being able to take your pieces away, and the final score is decided by how many pieces you still have on your side.

Tetras and Hanging Bars would make a good game in my opinion.

[Bstep]

I think it would be interesting if there was an obstacle course for the minibots (alongside normal game play). The minibots would begin the course at the start of the game and would use the duration of the game to autonomously navigate the course. It would be cool to see 120 pound robots with exotic drive trains for navigating a complicated course, but to include the rookie teams along side veterans it is more plausible to do it on the minibot scale.
