Re: 2014 Game

More stuff: some viable, mostly outrageous as thought starters. . . .

SIMULATE water like a ball pit. It provides “viscosity”, and you don’t want “water” in your mechanism so you should make your robot “waterproof”. But how do you manage all of that “water”?

CURLING: with recent Canadian domination, the rest of the world should rise to the challenge. AND taa-daa, the return or REGOLITH ! ! !

Think of carney games: like hoops on a post (turn 2011 by pi/2 radians); landing a game object on an elevated platform (similar to the 2013 top of the pyramid).

Something like “Score-Four” with a 2007 spoiler for fun. Enter at top or sides. . . . Multiple scoring sites, different from 2007. Or, just stack tubes and “Score-Four’.

Think of traditional birthday games: drop clothespins into a bottle; pin the tail on the donkey (no camera guidance—dead reckoning)?

Transport a stack of something like wait staff racing with trays of filled glasses. The taller the stack to the objective, the more points are awarded. So a stack of height one still gets a point. Now for unrelated things to stack: fribee on a track ball. Wait . . . . . TRACK BALL on a FRISBEE. . . .

Not sure anything from a rodeo would apply. . . .

Feather bowling: at least the game piece is somewhat irregular. Bocce ball? At least no regolith.

Tiddlywinks? Pitchin’ pennies (or some other disk). Marbles?
