[FRC Blog] About the Game Hint

[Whippet]

Hawaiian pizza -> Hawaii
Hawaii has six letters.
There have been two build seasons since Rebound Rumble.
6 ÷ 2 = 3
There were three shapes of tube in Logomotion.
Those tubes were originally meant to be used as pool toys.
What are there at pools? Lifeguards, who carry whistles.
Who else uses whistles? Referees.
This year's game has the volunteers playing a game while our robots referee.

You guys can enjoy yours however you like, but I don't think I will ever want my pizza to include fruit, fish, or fowl. Onions and peppers on mine, please (with mushrooms optional).

OBTW, peppers have seeds, making them ... fruit.

I'm not from New York, but I support this statement.

Though I must say the pizza in Naples is pretty good, too, though it's nothing like American pizza. St. Louis has pretty good pizza, too.

Absolutely nothing like Italian street pizza. Mmmm.

I smell something to do with tennis balls...

I feel like we're gonna now see a lot of Hawian Pizza at volunteer meals this year.

It is well known that New Haven is the home of the best pizza, Pepe's or Sally's? individual preference, ok.

New york is great also.

hot oven, thin crust, know how to fold it.

Leave the pineapple etc on the west coast (no offense - great robots over there)

First, pineapple and jalapeno is the best pizza topping combination.

Second, I completely agree with Evan's post earlier: it's awesome that FIRST is announcing the game hint with FRC Top 25. It shows an openness that Frank and FIRST has with the community. It also shows a mutual trust, we trust FIRST to give us a fun time figuring out the hint and they trust us, i.e. FRC Top 25, to put on a good show releasing it.

I'm hoping this leads to more involvement of teams in official FIRST events like Kickoff, announcing awards at competitions, and sideline commentating at Champs.

I, for one, am very excited for the announcement.

Pizza: for me, supreme/works/etc. is my choice... I like my toppings. Pineapple not so much. Tomato on the other hand, diced is a great pizza topping. As are banana peppers and jalapeno.

BBQ /buffalo chicken pizza is another favorite. Or Just veggie pizza.

Pizza is awesome. Case Closed.

Pizza is iterative?

Need we say more, even if cheese w/ pepperoni is still the best?

Has anyone mentioned my square-shaped best friend, Sicilian pizza?

And someone might kill me for this, but I don't like pepperoni on my pizza. At least it's not as bad as Hawaiian, though.

Neither do I. I'll take Hawaiian any day over peperoni, thank you very much Frank.
