That was, by far, my favorite FRC game piece. So much fun!

It's happened before.

I'm with the people that write this off as not a clue. Remember last year how the rumor mill was rampant with the 'hint' that glow-in-the-dark measuring tape would help with the 2014 challenge?

That wasn't even stated to be a game hint. It was only said to be useful in the game, which was because it's measuring tape and measuring parts is sort of important in making a robot. It didn't reference the game specifically.

When? I thought game hints have always been in email blasts/blogs/FIRST website.

FTC has tape measures on the sides of the goals

Still October?

Not a hint. Get back to doing your school homework.

OMG, please, please be true. Ideal name for robot: frogger. Even though this theory has been exhausted (for now...) the waterproofing of the cRio was probably for spills and mishaps, like rain. Also, have you considered big to mean anything else other than being literally big? How about a big change in game rules or alliances, what if it is referring to MORE THAN 3 TEAM ALLIANCES?

Better keep all options open just to be (/puts on z87+ sunglasses approved by OCEA) SAFE.

There have been numerous occasions where people affiliated with FIRST HQ and/or the GDC have made comments they claimed to be clues at various FRC events.

And FIRST has 3 shapes
And the game will be in 2015
And 15 + 3 = 18
And 3 and 6 are factors of 18
And 6, 3 times is 666

And jousting knights have lances
And Lances have a point
And a 3 ball auto won the game last year
And Triangles have 3 points

Satanic Underwater Illuminati Jousting confirmed?

Frank did make a blog post where he talked about how each year they review all the rules, and might even change # of alliance members or # of alliances per game...

WHAT IF THEY CHANGE THE GAME TO HAVE 3 ALLIANCES OF 2 TEAMS???
