Water Game Confirmed?

[Ceering]

I was looking at the video and noticed something.

See that?
No?
Take a closer look.

Is that water?
And the water is on the floor?
Water on floor = water on field.
WATER GAME CONFIRMED!!!

It's actually a rare picture of a team painting on the numbers for the bumpers

We did this for many years.
Take it from, me: DON'T.
They look god awful.
Unless you want your robot to look like that stupid font on most of those android phones, JUST DON'T.

That's a shadow.

And, OBTW, the shape casting the shadow appears to be the right circular cylinder with equal diameter and altitude that appears at the right hand side of the FIRST logo.

(For those who don't know yet, the triangle represents a right circular cone with the same base diameter and altitude, and the circle represents a sphere of the same diameter. The FIRST logo is a tribute to Archimedes' discovery that the volume of this cylinder was equal to the sum of the other two solids; I would not be at all surprised if someone found those two shapes elsewhere in the image.)

We had a water game last year. The moat satisfied my water game craving for a long time!!!

Why does everyone want a water game? I can't be the only one that thinks it would be a technicial nightmare!

Water game not confirmed. Slippery surface confirmed?? Maybe... Lunacy 2.0

No that is not water, its lube for all the exposed gears.

I'm wondering why Steamwork teams need aviator head gear.
Is it style, arctic weather or a high altitude game?

My team did it for our first two years. Those were dark days indeed...

Actually, our painted numbers looked wonderful and lasted through some rough competitions filled with bumper-to-bumper play. But they came at the cost of 5 members doing nothing but bumpers for two weeks of build season. Frankly, it wasn't worth it.

It honestly looks like oil, but I like the positive thinking!

I actually think it's the "can of paint" he is using to paint the numbers on the bumper.

They took some artistic liberties and "spilled" the paint on the floor..

(I may be wrong of course)
LOL
