Heh. It only took them 5 years between mobile goal games last time.

Now I feel really old...

I've put the time to good use: Finished a Bachelor's (MSOE, Software Engineering, class of '14), got a decent job after graduation, and all the while volunteered at my local competition!

I read in another post (let me find out what it is ) that they changed the game for this year to produce better marketing footage... Since the 2015 game was not that exciting to watch, they maybe changed the 2016 game to something cool for the audience...

Re: Possibility for 2016 Game

The recent game focused on a current issue, so maybe they'll do that again. Or they will go back to sports-theme (basketball, frisbee, track in Overdrive, soccer, etc.)

Sorry, I think you emphasized the wrong word. Mammoth obviously refers to Mammoth Mountain (ski resort) and/or Mammoth Lakes (town hosting said ski resort). What do we ski on? Water, frozen into snow. (The "Lakes" part should be pretty obvious where I'm going.) Therefore...

...2016 water game confirmed. Though I could be wrong, it might be 2017 or 2018.

Re: Possibility for 2016 Game

I would like to see a football or dodge ball game with footballs or tennis balls.
You score points for hitting targets on other robots and by passing balls to your alliance member bots. Robots could be programmed to dodge or catch balls.

Sorry, but YOU emphasized the wrong mammoth. They are still referring to the animal. The mammoth had tusks made of ivory. Piano keys are ivory. Therefore...

Piano game confirmed! I'll be quiet now

Re: Possibility for 2016 Game

Has any one though of the possibility that this game has something to do with tents? I mean (from FRC blog):

Quote:
Like the folks that make game trailers, we’re keeping in mind people outside the tent [...] Folks inside the tent have not been forgotten, though!
I was thinking there might be a scenario where the drive team won't be able to see the bot while doing something.
