Re: 2015 HINT DISCUSSION

If last year's game was repeated, I don't think there'd be a single team that didn't touch/upgrade their robot. Six build weeks is close to nothing in the crunch, so getting an extra six could lead to an exponentially greater outcome of power all across the boards.

Re: 2015 HINT DISCUSSION

I did an analysis on the shot composition of the video

There is definitely an emphasis on game pieces, and going back to the past...

No, everyone would attempt to copy 254's design (though few would be successful)

LESS THAN 12 HOURS TO KICKOFF

At this point we should stop reading this obnoxiously long thread and get some sleep. If you stay up all night reading, you won't be awake for what could be the most exciting kickoff we have experienced. Maybe post your best guess for bragging rights.

Re: 2015 HINT DISCUSSION

Has anyone thought of an ending autonomous period? That would be a huuge game changer.

There have been many posts on this thread about the likeliness of an auton endgame. Read up on all of the ideas.

Re: 2015 HINT DISCUSSION

GUYS![/color] Okay, so you know how in the video, the 2014 manual specifically was reCYCLEd? Remember how last year, Aerial Assist had a CYCLE in the game that had to be completed in order to gain more and more points? What if FRC does something just like that this year? Any thoughts???

A lot of people have mentioned this idea. I like this idea, but there is absolutely no evidence to support that it will happen this year.

I'm going with Delta Dual or Delta Duel as the name of the game. Just for bragging rights.

Re: 2015 HINT DISCUSSION

I'm going with a mass ball collection game. Just for bragging rights.

Footballs would be cool.

Just for bragging rights...

Pick-and-place game. Big change from the last 3 seasons.
