2013 possiable 2nd Hint

[279 EMPIE]

I think FIRST may have gave out the second hint today!!!

In the FIRST Blog this quote came up:
“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.'"

As we know the FLL game this year was Senior Solutions which was basically a game of helping seniors.

So I think the hint is HELPING, so this could be helping lift a robot as a end game because as we also know the FTC game last year involved lifting something, not exactly sure what.

Just a possibility

I'm going to be the first to say - no.

This post was a serious post intended to address the problems with FIRST Choice, thank the community for its support, and give tribute to the Newton victims.

I don't think we are so desperate we need to pull hints out of thin air

You're not the only one. While Bill used to like to integrate "hints" into his regular blog posts ("over the river and through the woods" anyone?), this is not one such enigmatic hint.

Let's forget our own enthusiasm about kickoff for a moment to consider the tragic events of last Friday. Please don't trivialize what happened.

I agree: it was not a hint.

Because of this I'd like to ask a mod to please delete this thread.

That's actually a quote I've seen attributed to Mister Rogers several times. Whether that's accurate or not, I'm not sure - I will fully admit that I didn't check the source, ever. But it's not just an FRC Blog thing.

I like the quote, but it's probably not meant as a hint.

I agree, this thread needs to go.
