Re: 2013 Game Hint!

Never gonna give you up came out in 87; FIRST had first game in 91. 4 years apart. 2013 minus 4 is 2009. 2009 is Lunacy. But this year, Mars themed, but close to Lunacy with Tetras because 3 of the pins are regular pins, but the 3rd is thumbtack. 3 minute screen shot. 3-3-3 is tetra.

Edit: NVM... First season was 92

Re: 2013 Game Hint!

3 alliances, 2 bots each, red, yellow, blue. You have to switch the goal (thumbtack) to your color in order to roll your game piece in.


Although now we will have to build three sets of bumpers, ack

Maybe FIRST has answered our prayers and won't require bumpers next year?

Your prayers maybe, I would like looser rules on the bumpers don't get me wrong but I feel they are a necessary thing in the evolution of FIRST, just like helmets and pads in football.

Buy them, if you don’t have them already, for your 2013 bumpers.

Libby Kamen posted this on FIRST's FaceBook:
Technically, it's just a picture from the GDC lab.... Don't dive in just yet. It takes some time for the GDC to formulate hints. This is probably just a little one to get your feet wet.

Re: 2013 Game Hint!

I feel like everyone is missing something important: if this is a recent picture from the Game Lab, wouldn't they be working on the game after next? You know, they have more than once said that next year's game was mostly developed last year...

(Although the URL does say 2013....)

Re: 2013 Game Hint!

hmmm....

1. 3 colors
2. 3 minutes in
3. 2013

3 3's.... I think I know what this means...

Valve is now a FRC sponsor and will be announcing the Half Life 3 release date, the day after the FRC World championships....

The game will be half life themed....
