Re: [FRC Blog] Duck Vine
Presenting the 2016 FRC game: Duck Hunt
Duck Hunt is played by two alliances of three robots each in a 54 foot by 27 foot arena with rubber ducks starting perched in and around a variety of field structures. The objective of Duck Hunt is to 'hunt' as many ducks as possible and retrieve them using your alliance's Duck Obtainment Gizmo, or D.O.G. The D.O.G. is a wheeled receptacle that starts in front of your alliance's player station and can be pushed around the field. You score one point for every duck that ends up in the D.O.G. at the end of the match. Robots may pick up and manipulate (or even throw) ducks in order to feed them to the D.O.G. Special bonus ducks are worth 3 points each, and start perched higher than the maximum robot height limit of 60" (no vertical extension is allowed). To knock down bonus ducks, robots and human players may throw/shoot Poof Balls at them. But be careful! You'll want to park your D.O.G. (or maybe a teammate) underneath first to make sure the opponent doesn't get them all! Additional bonus points can be earned by shooting Poof Balls at your OPPONENT's D.O.G. One point is awarded for each Poof Ball that ends the match inside the D.O.G. Good luck, and watch out for flying ducks! |

Re: [FRC Blog] Duck Vine
Frank isn't giving us a hint.
He's inferring that on a match-by-match basis, the aggregate group of us will be fine with this game. But on a holistic scale, there will be a fragmented group who will be so annoyed with the upcoming game that they will come together and consider sacking FIRST HQ. |

Re: [FRC Blog] Duck Vine
Great use of 2d parts to achieve complex 3d geometry!

Ice cream also has no bones. I think there is a connection... Ducks McGucks? (Or, technically, Seagull McGeegull) Seriously: This may have been a potential game piece in for testing. The background looks like the basement of FIRST Place. |

My dad used to sing, "I love bananas, because they have no bones."

You obviously missed Solar Slingshot. (It's a floor wax and a dessert topping in one!)

Carried by swallows, of course.
Now, whether those swallows are African or European is an open question. |

Re: [FRC Blog] Duck Vine
I think you might have to like the page on fb to watch it, but basically when they press down on the ducks the second time it plays the John Cena music.
