Re: Humorous wit from the GDC

Couldn't just about anything that the spy brings next to the field be a "signalling/pointing device"? I'd put good money on at least one team bringing something (not necessarily used as a pointing device) outside the box and having it provide a competitive advantage. Maybe a 6 foot wide mirror to 'signal' to the driveteam so they can see if there are any boulders hiding on the far side of the defenses, similar to 1986's mirror in 2010?

Re: Humorous wit from the GDC

This makes me think of those medieval lego kits where the minifigures are holding apples, chicken legs, and baguettes in their market.

Re: Humorous wit from the GDC

I am just waiting for a human player to have a different food item in the box each match. I also want to see him/her devour whatever it is by the end of the match. "Quick! He's almost finished that apple! Scale the tower, scale the tower!"
