Exclamation 2015 FRC Game : RECYCLE RUSH

And now the moment of truth we've all been waiting for (drumroll please) ...

Presenting the 2015 FRC Game : Recycle Rush
Any thoughts, tips, ideas or suggestions regarding this year's game?

And for those who didn't catch the encrypted game manual key, here it is : R3C3CL3RU$H2015

If you want the decrypted game manual (so that you don't have to enter the password each time), take a look at the attachment!

Bragging rights go out to me and Harman341 for our small "collaboration" on predicting the game this morning : http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...&postcount=689 (I apologize if I missed others with the same speculation)

Good luck & happy building!

I may be mistaken but the code seems to be all capital letters

Re: 2015 FRC Game : Recycle Rush

This isn't at all what I expected...but I'm excited! The first thing I'm thinking about is how to pick up totes and noodles with the same arm...

Re: The 2015 game is... Recycle Rush!

Interesting game....very difficult to control the tub, barrel and pool noodle. Robots stay on their side of the field. Very different from what we've seen in the past.

Re: 2015 FRC Game : Recycle Rush

Interesting that it seems to be more of a 3v0 + 3v0 instead of a 3v3. The alliances are not necessarily competing against each other, but the clock.

Re: 2015 FRC Game : Recycle Rush

What surprised me was the extra points for cooperating with the other alliance. I can see this being a very welcome change and may make this game one of the best.

Re: 2015 FRC Game : Recycle Rush

i can see like a suction for the totes but maybe a third arm in the middle for the noodles that is directly connected to the main arms to put the noodles in the bins. Maybe you can put them in before the bin is even stacked and move that to the totes.

Having no defense will make the game interesting.

Right now my current thought as a mentor is... RIP my ankles. Bumpers not required?
