Re: 2016 Game Prediction - Football

It often snows here in South Bend on gameday. Maybe we will have some sort of snowfall mechanic where slowly the field lines start to disappear and then nobody knows where any of the zones are?

I'd imagine formulating a game plan with 10 other teams would be difficult, depending on their willingness to work with different ideas pitched to them.

I know this is a little off-topic, but when Aerial Assist was adored by so many on Chop Shop I am just curious as to why so many people everywhere else dislike it so much.

The biggest reasons I had for disliking it, was due to the crazy amount of penalties and no calls, and the fact that if an alliance partner decided not to show up to a match it was near impossible to pull of a win in qualifiers.

Re: 2016 Game Prediction - Football

Football is a sport that causes its athletes to be fatigued. Fatigued people sweat. People who sweat drink Gatorade at sports events. Gatorade has the word Gator in it. Gator is short for alligator. Alligators swim in the water. Water game 2016 confirmed.

A few years ago I refereed at a BunnyBots (a fall off-season event run by the Flaming Chickens) that had the robots armed with nerf guns. Each hit deducted points from the victim's score. Referees had to count hits with clickers.

(Besides shooting each other, the robots were attempting to move an assortment of stuffed rabbits into goals. It was a fun game!)

I thought you were going to stop at sweat being comprised mostly of water, but no, you had to keep going.

Re: 2016 Game Prediction - Football

I've been predicting a football game for the past 3 years and have been disappointed every time it hasn't been one. Oh well, at least I've got some good ideas on game piece manipulation.
