Or worst, depending on how much you liked plastic wheels, cheap motors prone to burning out, and using motion-sensing videogame controllers for driving robots.

Re: 2013 Game Hint!

I see things a little more like this:
3 pushpins: one red, one blue, one yellow.
3 alliances, but what if they were 1 robot each.
3 minutes into the video for the screenshot giving 3 minute matches as predicted. 3 robots on a field gives room for 2 smaller fields. Which does not disrupt event flow.

More time to play, less reliance on teammates, more individual success.
Maybe that 4th pin which is red but not a pushpin plays a major role.

Also Rack n Roll similar to Rick Roll
