Robots in spaaaace...

No wait, we did that in 2009. On second thought, lets not go to space, it's a silly place.

Re: Water Game 2017

I think FIRST will give us a water themed game, you know like how Stronghold was Middle Ages/Castle themed. They'll give us a game about water but without any actual water in it.

Re: Water Game 2017

We were chatting about the Bumpers being flotation devices for next year's game, when Big Al (the lead LRI) said he would be closely reviewing the bumper rules for next year. I take that as close as a confirm that he could give.

Re: Water Game 2017

FIRST is dividing the championship because they couldn't find a pool large enough for 600 teams.... water game confirmed.

Right there inside the moat, obviously.

Re: Water Game 2017

I'm waiting for FIRST's 2018 game FIRST Zombie Run. Made specifically to hold events at 2 venues.
Teams have to venture en mass from one arena to another while dodging volunteers assigned as zombies to attack teams going to the other arena and attempt top steal their robots. Once they arrive at the other arena they are required to play 2016's game with surviving robots using damaged defenses while zombies attempt to disrupt them. Teams must protect drive teams from the zombies using nerf guns, Points are deducted depending how many team members were "killed" by zombies and how many robots were stolen by zombies.
