Re: 9328490238209

I've got two approaches not yet fully explored in this thread.

FIRST

This is the real trick, try typing that on a full-sized keyboard. You only need three fingers on each hand (index, middle, and ring fingers), and if you line each hand up correctly with the corresponding spot on the keyboard and mash them repeatedly, that's exactly what the resulting number looks like:

9802349802349
9823498234980
0982348239834
9823490823940
9234908982349
9328490238209

Three fingers each from two different hands...
Definitely two distinct alliances, and three robots on each alliance...
Could be 13 game pieces that can only be scored once...
Or maybe just 13 scoring events that happen to occur during the game unveil video, and which robot scores each one...
Left hand scores 6 times, but right hand scores 7 times...
Right hand wins! Maybe. Depends on whether or not there are different point values for different kinds of scoring...

----------------------------------------------------

SECOND:

Alternatively, we can look at the number of times each digit appears within the so-called random number:
1 --> 0 times
2 --> 3 times
3 --> 2 times
4 --> 1 time
5 --> 0 times
6 --> 0 times
7 --> 0 times
8 --> 2 times
9 --> 3 times
0 --> 2 times

This gives us our second-step number as either 0321000232 or 2032100023, depending on whether the 0 digit is low or high. We could also drop the zeros, giving us either 321232 or 232123 depending on whether the zero digit was low or high, and these two numbers are curiously mirror images of one another.

0321000232 and 2032100023 could be phone numbers, but neither one gave me any particularly promising results when I searched them.

#321232 is a deep plum color, whereas #232123 is about 23 shades of grey darker than pure white (also two shades lighter than pure black, and one shade lighter than the standard "black" color defined in the 2015-edition FIRST Style Guide).

If we mash 321232 and 232123 together, we get either 321232232123 or 232123321232. Both of these numbers seem fairly dead-end based on my searching, so I think Imma go with my first approach above as being the most promising explanation out of these two.
