Re: 2014 Game Hint 1

And then today their blog post had a lot of unnecessary wording as well.

http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprogr...-Manual-Posted

"...One thing you will not see in the award section is the return of the 3D Design and Animation award. I haven’t given up on this yet, but we are running out of time to put this in place for the 2014 season. This sounds like it should be a simple thing, but every award has lots of moving parts that need to work together. I’ll let you know one way or the other when the decision on this award is finalized..."

I mean that's the case with EVERY competition.

Here's what we have so far:

Blog Post from Nov 26.
http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprogr...-Something-New

"*SPOILER ALERT. If you can’t wait, I’ll tell you the end. Tom Baker makes an appearance as the museum curator."

Dr. Who reference; Who + FIRST = Who's on First

Guess: Baseball

Blog Post from December 16.
http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprogr...stponed-Part-2

"Our apologies for the two strikes this weekend, we promise our next swing will be a home run."

Guess: Baseball

Blog Post from December 18.
http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprogr...hoice-Progress

"...AndyMark has been restructuring the FIRST Choice site to one that can meet their standards, our standards, and your standards. That, to us, would be the hat trick."

Guess: Hockey

Guess: Anything


Also, did anyone have any speculation as to why the photo from the Nov 25 blog showed the water bottles? They seemed so arbitrarily yet intentionally placed.

Re: 2014 Game Hint 1

But baseball also has hat tricks.

The 2014 game, kickball. It's like breakaway, with lighter balls, and higher goals.

They're placed where they are because Woodie prefers to just reach down and grab his water bottle, probably to drink while the camera is actually rolling because he likes to drink water. Dean and Frank have their water bottles there because they don't expect to need the water/expect to walk around and don't want to kick the water bottles over.

Re: 2014 Game Hint 1

Maybe it's some kind of scoring in three general matches? By now I cannot guess any game in which players are able to score such an amount of points...

Re: 2014 Game Hint 1

found out that 8234/57 = 144.4561404... which google brought up to be the hex code of green.
also - 61126/1963 = 31.13907285... which is the hex code of green, same method.

Why don't we keep all ACTUAL 2014 Game Hint Discussion on the ACTUAL 2014 Game Hint Thread

Mods, this thread could probably be closed.
