From GLOSSARY:

SCORED: A DISC is considered SCORED in an ALLIANCE’S GOAL if any part of the DISC has crossed through the opening of the GOAL, is in the GOAL at the end of the MATCH, and the DISC is not in contact with any ROBOT from that ALLIANCE. Additionally, for a DISC to be considered SCORED in an ALLIANCE’S PYRAMID GOAL, it must correspond to the PYRAMID color.

I am a troll. They are all trolls. Darn you, GCD. At least they weren't just giving us dots on random CD posts...*cough DAVE*...

Man.. I can't even begin to think of how this game will be attempted. I think they really kinda stepped it up this year. I could be wrong O_o but it's not the easiest thing to pick up a frisbee if it's not upside-down :O vacuuuuuum boooooot is the new meta XD

Autodesk canceled the Design Excellence Award just a few weeks before the Kickoff, and FIRST ignored the Safety Animation contest.

So far, this hasn't been a good year for animation teams.

well the pins in the first hint could have represented hanging. rick ashley's song "never gonna give you up, never gonna LET YOU DOWN..." i never saw the second hint but the third was a code that translated into a rhyme about i think it was:a rose kissed. i for get the next part but the last was about a dinner missed. when a dinner is missed the only thing there are plates. plates=saucers. saucers=flying. flying saucers= frisbees
