Re: Not to jinx next year, but...

I like the idea of a game with tennis balls to celebrate the 25th game.

My idea would be something where there's a see-saw like game element in the center of the field(which is somewhat v-shaped), with 2 scoring containers on each side. The 2 sides of the see-saw would be marked by color. One scoring container will be next to the center of the see-saw, and the other will be all the way on the end. Tennis balls scored in the center container, and therefore lower and closer to the ground, making them easier to score in, are worth 3-5 points(I don't really know how much yet). Tennis balls scored in the outer and higher container are worth 8 points each. Also, tennis balls on the ground in an alliance's zone contribute 1 point each to that alliance's score. Also, whichever team puts more tennis balls in the containers, causing it to tip towards that team's alliance station, gets and additional bonus added to their score of a value to be determined.

I don't really know how the tennis balls would be added to the field, but that could be decided. I also think that having different levels of scoring allow participation from all levels of teams, as the more valuable goals/containers are more difficult to achieve.
