Re: [FRC Blog] 2014 Game Hint

I think the numbers indicate an anniversary of some kind and a quarter quell. Parts of previous games will be combined to form a new game. Previous winners will be invited back to play. The only way to win will be to form a good alliance.

I want to note that the link to the game summaries page also contains the word "who," and FIRST has been posting pictures of old fields on twitter lately.

Re: [FRC Blog] 2014 Game Hint

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 BLUE, same method.

GREEN. Green is the hint.

Re: [FRC Blog] 2014 Game Hint

Seriously guys, basically ANY three points plotted in 2D or 3D space make up a triangle. The only way that it wouldn't happen is if the points made a line, which might actually mean something. The "triangle" is not the hint.

That is true. What interests me is that in the green screen photo with dean and woody, the triangle the water bottles make have the same incline on the bottom points similar to the points when plotted. The scaling was off on the original graph but if you plug in ratios such as 4.6, then the triangle looks similar to the alignment of waterbottles. Not fullproof theory at all but it holds up slightly I think.

i feel like a third alliance is improbable unless they change the number of teams on each alliance to 2. they already have the locations of all of the events and most of them cant have the field that much larger.
