Would you care to elaborate then?

Since it says game hint #3, and this is the second game hint. So there has to be something special with the 3. In the first hint there were 3 different colored pins holding up the picture and the screen shot from the music video comes from 33 seconds into the video,and the video is 3 minutes and 33 seconds long. 3 has a lot to do with the 2013 game.

The playing field will be a Rectangle with 3 sizes; length, width, and depth.

So it's obviously a water game.

I just noticed the commas in the number strings.

I always suspected the lower numbered teams to have a mole in the staff...

It might just be me, but I think this thread took a wrong turn somewhere.

I agree

Three...

Three minute matches?

Or maybe, just maybe, three alliance game?

Three minute matches could be a change! Also, those 3 different colored push-pins don't necessarily mean a three alliance game, because the third color was Yellow, and in the past when challenges have been 3 alliances, the color was white. But in Logomotion, the yellow tubes were used for autonomous. So maybe there will be a longer autonomous mode, and that's why matches will be 3 minutes. Also, if matches are 3 minutes, what are we going to do about battery life? At the end of 2:15 matches, those batteries were already shot!

I strongly believe we were on the right track with the poem riddle-ish thing. That was defiantly getting us somewhere. We are also forgetting that we have already had 2 hints, which we are not sure of what they were. I think one was the Rick Astley picture, and I also believe that it means that matches will be 3 minutes long. I have no idea what the other one would be though.

We also have to approach this sanely, the GDC is not gonna give us a hint that could potentially tell us that its and arm game, or that the field has a bump, or that the end game requires us to lift our allied robots. The hints usually give us small details or are so complicated that we will never figure it out. They usually tell us things that do not effect the game itself, but more subtle things. Things like matches are 3 minutes long, and the name has something to do with this riddle. Its not impossible that the GDC would give us a powerful hint, I just don't see it being too likely.

Thoughts?

2010, People guessed that the game piece was going to be a Soccer Ball.

Here's a map of the first 3 coordinates... haven't found the 4th...

[G Fawkes]

My son confirms the clue is;
A ROSE, KISSED
SINGER GREAT
A DINNER, MISSED
HOLDING WEIGHT

He says each pair of numbers represent a letter of a cryptogram. The only unusual thing is 97 represents both a G and a T.

[Redo91]

If the G and T have the same number value, could it be that instead of "great", the word is "treat"?
